Kay Yow Award Winner & Marshall's 4th-Most 3-Point Shooter in History
Peyton Ilderton, a 5'6" senior guard for Marshall Thundering Herd, stands out as the 2025-26 Kay Yow Servant Leader Award winner, reflecting her exceptional character and leadership beyond the court. She made 82 three-pointers—ranking 4th-most in Marshall program history—demonstrating elite shooting range despite her compact stature. With 9.2 PPG, 2.7 AST, and 38.4% FG in the 2025 season, she combines scoring, playmaking, and defensive intensity (2.4 REB). Her transition to Assistant Director of Basketball Operations in 2026 highlights her deep team fit and basketball IQ. No major injury history reported; her intensity and personality make her a perfect cultural fit for any team valuing resilience and servant leadership.
