2009-07-23 - At Raleigh Wakefield,
reports the Burlington Times News, Kelsey Evans was a member of teams with a four-year record of 108-8. As a senior, she averaged 18.5 points and 10 rebounds per game and was selected as the CAP-7 Conference Player of the Year. She signed with Kellie Harper at Western, but when Harper moved on, so did Evans. She’s now enrolled at SoCon rival Elon, but is still trying to work out a release from Western. Apparently that may or may not happen, and nobody at Western has commented.
• After a 21-12 campaign that ended with a Southern Conference tournament championship and a trip to the NCAA tournament, Western Carolina’s womens basketball team pulled down further accolades recently by finishing in the national academic top-25 for the third straight year. The team’s combined GPA during the 2009 academic year was 3.428.
• On a different note, first-year coach Karen Middleton released Western’s schedule for the 2009-2010 campaign. In addition to a full SoCon slate, the Catamounts will tackle a lineup that includes an appearance at the Great Alaska Shootout as well as matchups with Richmond, East Carolina, James Madison, Charlotte, Western Kentucky and Florida State.
