ATHENS -- Georgia signed guard Angie Criner and forward Ebony Jones on Wednesday, the first day of the spring signing period.

The 5-foot-8 Criner, from Jenks, Okla., averaged 17 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.4 steals and 2.6 assists in 14 games at Butler Community College in Kansas in the 2008-09 season. She missed the second half of the season with a shoulder injury.

Criner averaged 9.5 points as a freshman at Arkansas State.

The 6-foot-2 Jones, from Cedar Hill (Texas) High School, averaged 13 points and 12 rebounds as a senior.

Cedar Hill coach Andrea Robinson said Jones "runs like nothing I've ever seen for a girl that size."

"She's just phenomenally athletic," Robinson said. "It's unbelievable when you watch her."

Coach Andy Landers also announced that Candace Williams, 5-foot-8 guard from Union County High School in Blairsville, will join the roster as a walk-on.

Criner and Jones join four signees from the fall: Anne Marie Armstrong, Jasmine Hassell, Jasmine "JJ" James and Tamika Willis.
