SOUTH ATLANTIC REGION TOURNAMENT PREVIEW

 

It has been another tremendous season for the #2 Shaw women’s basketball team.  The Lady Bears come into the 2005 South Atlantic Regional ranked #2 in the country, their highest ranking ever.  The Lady Bears won their third-straight CIAA Tournament Champions.

 

The 2004-05 edition of the Lady Bears may be the best in history.  Shaw is 29-1 coming into the tournament and has won an astounding 23-straight games.  The Lady Bears are quick and can get up and down the floor, but more impressive is their defense, as they force opponents into an average of 30 turnovers per game.  This year’s squad features the senior trio of Kiarsha Curtis, Joy Hairston and Jessica Hawkins. more
