Shaw Women's Basketball Update
Lady Bears Drop to #15
With an early #4
national ranking, the Lady Bears were upset at the buzzer by
Tuskegee (82-80) and in the Holiday Isle Classic
by Emporia
State which dropped them down to
the #15 spot of the ESPN/USAToday/WBCA National Poll. With
five non-conference games remaining before the brutal CIAA
run, the Lady Bears are still in good shape to make a run
back into the top five in the country.
The early
test for the Lady Bears was a big learning experience that gave Coach Jacque
Curtis a big indication his 2005-06 squad will still be in contention to
make another run for the CIAA title.
Without the
services of defensive ace senior Jenna Bradford (Baltimore, MD) and
the inside addition of Nicky Souter
(Brooklyn, NY) and Tavia Clemendor
(Danville, VA), the Lady Bears were not at full force. All three will join
the team for the second half of the season, which will definitely add
experience to the defensive and inside production. Going into
the Thanksgiving holiday, the Lady Bears were ranked #4 in the country and
took an impressive 2-1 mark into the prestigious Holiday Isle Classic in
Islamorada, FL and were upset in the championship game by #9 Emporia State
(KS) 84-67. Chanae Early (SR/Atlanta, GA) paced the Lady
Bears in the championship game with 24 points and was named to the All
Tournament Team.
