Shay Shippen brings size, scoring pedigree, and winning polish to Columbia’s backcourt
In the 2025-26 season, freshman guard Shay Shippen has flashed early role-player production for Columbia, while her real appeal is the multi-level scoring and all-around edge she built at Skyline, where she became Idaho’s all-time leading scorer with 2,372 points and piled up 1,053 rebounds, 333 assists, 258 steals, and 69 blocks. Columbia’s staff described her as a confident, poised scorer and decision-maker whose size, strength, and versatility let her impact the game in multiple spots. If you want a guard who can grow into a do-everything connector with toughness and upside, she’s absolutely one to watch.
