Looks like we picked up someone with a bit of height who can shoot 3's pretty well.

Looks like they added another JUCO player, Avery Hamm committed to WIU today and it looks like it is for 2018-19 season. She will have 2 yrs with WIU.

Congrats to her, assistant coaches moving up to head coaching positions is a sign of success. Plus I bet it'll be nice having a friend in the JUCO ranks for those times we need to bring in a transfer to fill a need for a year or two. She might be able to help with a few tips on some area players.

On Twitter, Coach Gravina posted a picture of the team photo and in the background was Morgan Blumer sitting in the stands. JD made a comment about her being there even though the NCAA turned her down for another year of eligibility. That was the first I had heard of her trying to get another year.

Last year, a leader on the court, this year, a leader on the side of the court...Emily Clemens has been named an Assistant Coach, filling the role after Taylor Ignoto got a HC job at Rock Valley College.

Great for Em, and definitely for a potential continuation being an asst coach instead of a grad asst. Wonder if Blumer will now fill that role since she didn't get her 6th year.
