Hail, Lady Victory!
Washington, D.C. (11/25/06)—Head Coach Kylan Loney watched
as her unit blew out of the gates and took command of the home
opener against Southern Vermont, 78-49. Junior forward
Shabnam “Shabby” Razmpour had a solid night on the
floor, leading the team with 16 points and sharing the team lead
off the boards with Brittany Payne, tacking 8 apiece. Senior
Tamara Foronda, fresh off her volleyball endeavors netted 11 points
and a pick from the Mounties’ offense. She also was
perfect from the free-throw line, going 3-for-3. Freshman
Brittany Payne put up 13 points, three steals and Kallie Williams
rounded things off with 10 points. Senior guard Stacy Jones,
who made a crazy buzzer-beater shot before the 1st half expired,
led the team with 5 Mountie picks. Senior forward Jessica Salisbury
left the game with an injury to her leg, after racking up 6 points.
Whether or not she will start tomorrow is yet to be determined.
The Mountaineers play St. John’s College Sunday November 26
at 1 p.m. for the consolation while the Lady Bison take on the Lady
Bobcats of Frostburg State in the championship game at 3
p.m.
Lady Bobcat senior guard Tracie George eclipsed a career
milestone, scoring her 1,001st point off a trey in the opening
minutes of the game against the Lady Bears.
