GAINESVILLE - Coach Gary Bays expects an improved Brenau Tigers team will be more competitive on the courts this season in the very tough SSAC. After two convincing wins in scrimmage games, the team travels to Sumter, South Carolina on Saturday for the season-opener against Morris College.
After two convincing wins in scrimmage games, the team travels to Sumter, South Carolina on Saturday for the season-opener against Morris College.
With the return of four starters and eight players overall from last year's 10-20 squad, this team will be much more experienced and in better position to win the close games they lost last year.
Sophomore Paige Cooper, who was selected to the SSAC All-Freshman team, leads the way and averaged 8.0 points and 5.3 rebounds last year. Three other sophomore starters, Vicky Wilson, Natasha Anderson and Sarah Ledford, are also back. Whitney Jones, a senior from East Hall High School returns, along with Junior Lori Pope and Sophomores Tori Collins and Chessie Archer.
The home opener is slated for Tuesday, Nov. 13 at 6 pm against Tennessee Temple University.
