A steady LIU guard with shooting touch, hustle, and serious classroom chops
In her LIU career, Shyla Sanford stood out as a low-drama, high-IQ guard who brought shooting range, defensive activity, and dependable minutes; in the 2021-22 season she averaged 5.5 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.0 steal in 23 games (19 starts), and she finished third on the team in steals while earning NEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors with a 4.0 GPA. Her game fits a coach who values toughness, reliability, and off-ball discipline more than flashy volume—basically, the kind of player every roster needs when the lights get bright.
