Shannon Dowell is Mizzou’s steady, high-efficiency scoring guard
In the 2025-26 season, Shannon Dowell has been a reliable two-way guard for Missouri, ranking 15th in the SEC with 14.9 points per game, 10th in free-throw percentage at .785, and second on the team with 5.5 defensive rebounds per game[1]. She brings proven shot-making, physicality, and competitive edge after transferring from Illinois State, where she averaged 17.6 points and 5.2 rebounds in the 2024-25 season while shooting 49.3% from the field[10][15]. Her profile says ‘bucket-getter’ with real toughness: she can score in bunches, get to the line, and help on the glass, making her a strong fit for a team needing offense and grit[5][13].
