McKenzie Akers brings floor-spacing grit and veteran shot-making to Marshall
Akers has been a dependable guard for Marshall, with ESPN listing her at 6.3 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game, plus a 34.3% field-goal clip in the available season data[1]. Her calling card is perimeter shooting and toughness—her Marshall bio notes she ranked among the program’s all-time three-point leaders and delivered double-figure scoring nights, including an 18-point outing, which signals a guard who can stretch defenses and compete in high-leverage moments[2]. If a team needs a steady, spacing-friendly backcourt piece with proven shooting confidence, she’s a real fit[1][2].
