Great to have these young ladies in the UCA family...any news
on what other universities were recruiting them?

The official release of the five early signees -

We're certainly not getting any taller with this group.

– Sierra Bone, 5-foot-11 freshman guard, Flower Mound, Texas (Marcus HS)
Averaged 10 points, three rebounds, and two charges taken per game as a junior, and maintains a 3.6 grade point average.

"Sierra is a pure shooter who can create her own shots," Rushing said. "Her work ethic, passion and love for the game is amazing."

– Christina Devers, 5-foot-7 freshman guard, Bixby, Okla. (Bixby HS)
Averaged 21 points, seven assists, four steals and five rebounds as a junior.

"Christina is a versatile player who can put it on the floor and create," Rushing said. "She has the ability to rebound and run the floor."

– Kelsei Ewings, 5-foot-5 junior guard, West Point, Miss. (Paris JC/North Carolina A&T)
Averaged 27 points, five assists and three steals as a high school senior. Is averaging 9.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.2 steals per game this season at Paris (Texas) Junior College. Played in 28 games as a true freshman at North Carolina A&T last season, recording a season-high 10 points against Virginia Union.

"Kelsei is a true point guard and plays bigger than 5-5," Rushing said. "She is a great ball handler and leader on the floor. She is a true competitor on both ends of the floor and her defensive intensity will bring a lot of energy to the court."

– Brianna Mullins, 5-foot-5 freshman guard, Rosston, Ark. (Nevada HS)
Averaged 20 points, seven rebounds, five assists and four steals per game en route to being named all-state last season as a junior at Nevada High School, where she has a 3.7 grade point average.

"Brianna is a great player and ball handler with the ability to get to the rim," Rushing said. "She is a solid defensive player that plays with heart and passion."

– Maggie Proffitt, 5-foot-9 freshman guard, Columbus, Miss. (Starkville Academy)
Averaged 19 points per game last season for Columbus (Miss.) High School, recording a high of 38 points. She made eight 3-pointers in one game and had another in which she made 7 of 7. Was named Co-MVP and Best Offensive Player as a freshman at CHS, and was first team all-area and all-state honorable mention in her sophomore and junior seasons. She also started for the Kenner (La.) Angles 16U AAU team that won the 2012 national championship.

"Maggie is a pure shooter," Rushing said. "She is a very hard worker and is willing to put in the extra time to take her game up a level."

Not sure, but from that list we sure are recruiting a lot of guards. The 5-11
girls is a good sized guard, but the others are average. But who knows...they
may be really good.
