Daria Shishkina brings size, energy, and a developing two-way guard profile to Merrimack
Shishkina is a 5'11" guard who has shown she can give Merrimack efficient minutes off the bench, with a career-high 12 points on 4-for-6 shooting in a 2026 win over Rider and a 2024-25 season line of 1.6 points and seven rebounds in 16 games.[2][7] Her value is less about headline scoring and more about versatility, board work, and steady effort, which makes her a useful fit for a team that wants a physical, low-usage guard who can defend, rebound, and stay ready for an expanded role.[2][8]
