In Fall 2016, Shaw became a Hornet as she began her first year at Sacramento State. She is a Psychology major, studying to become a clinical sports psychologist to work with collegiate and professional athletes. During her freshman season, she played in 19 games, including 15 starts as a DP. Shaw batted the third highest on the team with a .327 batting average, including five runs scored, four doubles, three homers, nine RBIs, five walks, a .577 slugging percentage and a .386 on-base percentage. During her 15 starts, she ranked sixth on the team with eight multiple-hit games. Her sophomore season, Shaw suffered from a season-ending injury during the first practice of the Fall season.
