Taryn Sides is K-State’s steady spark plug: efficient scoring, real shooting gravity, and a big-game edge
In the 2025-26 season, Taryn Sides emerged as Kansas State’s leading scorer at 12.4 points per game while adding 3.7 assists, 2.22 made threes per game, and elite 84.6% free-throw shooting; she also posted 450+ points, 80+ threes, 125+ rebounds, 125+ assists, and 60+ steals, a rare all-around production line. She’s a compact 5-foot-7 guard who plays with confidence, toughness, and a soft shooting touch, and the best part is how she lifts K-State’s offense without dominating the ball. If you want a guard who can score, pass, and punish defenses from deep, she’s an easy yes.
