Daria Shelby is carving out a gritty, low-mistake role for Omaha
In the 2025-26 season, Omaha sophomore guard Daria Shelby logged 670 minutes over 30 games with 24 starts, contributing 102 points, 72 rebounds, 25 assists, 13 steals and an 82.4% free-throw clip; her value is less about volume scoring and more about toughness, positioning and doing the small things that keep a lineup connected. She’s a 5-8 guard who brings defensive energy, rebounds well for her spot, and shows enough shooting touch to matter if her efficiency climbs. If you want a guard who competes, defends and accepts a glue-player role, Shelby is a real fit.
