LADY BUC NOTES

WE ARE “ETSU” The ETSU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics would like to ask both the print and broadcast media to honor our request to be called “ETSU” throughout the 2009 NCAA Tournament ... East Tennessee State in first reference is acceptable, but subsequent references should be ETSU ... On TV graphics both on ESPN, please use ETSU ... Our nickname is the Lady Buccaneers, but Lady Bucs is also acceptable. LADY BUCS GOING DANCING FOR THE SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR Last season ETSU made its first-ever appearance in the NCAA Tournament after being a 14 seed and taking on third-seed Oklahoma State in Des Moines … after knocking off Jacksonville, 58-52, back on March 7, inside Lipscomb’s Allen Arena in Nashville, Tenn., the Lady Bucs became the first team to punch their ticket to the Big Dance in 2009 … the trip to the NCAA Tournament marks the third straight year ETSU will be playing a postseason tournament, as the Lady Bucs represented the Atlantic Sun in the 2007 WNIT and now have been the league’s representative in the 2008 and 2009 NCAA Tournament. LAST TIME OUT ETSU had to rally back from a nine point deficit to defeat Jacksonville 58-52 in the 2009 General Shale Brick Atlantic Sun Tournament back on March 7 inside Lipscomb’s Allen Arena … the victory marked the Lady Bucs’ second straight conference tournament title and it was also the third straight year ETSU ended Jacksonville’s season … junior TaRonda Wiles led the Lady Bucs with 15 points, while Siarre Evans posted her 18th double-double of the season by finishing with 12 points and 15 rebounds … sophomore transfer Shannon White came up big with a season-high 10 points off the bench. LAST TIME OUT IN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT Michele DeVault poured in a team-high 22 points and Latisha Belcher added 14 points and seven rebounds, but it was not enough to lift the 14th-seed Lady Bucs over third-seed Oklahoma State in the first round of the New Orleans Region inside Wells Fargo Arena on March 22, 2008 … ETSU cut a 17-point second-half deficit to seven, 67-60, with less than seven minutes to play; however, the Lady Bucs couldn’t pull off the stunner as the Cowgirls closed out the contest by scoring 18 of the final 31 points to secure a 12-point win … the battle was won at the free throw line, as Oklahoma State shot 28-for-35 compared to ETSU’s 11-of-17 showing … the Lady Bucs did manage to hit one more field goal (27 to 26) and three extra three-pointers (8 to 5) against the Cowgirls. LADY BUCS VS. THE BOWLING GREEN POD East Tennessee State and Iowa State have never faced each other in previous history; however, the Lady Bucs did go head-to-head against another Big 12 foe in the first round of the 2008 NCAA Tournament … the Lady Bucs fell 85-73 to No. 3-seed Oklahoma State in Des Moines, Iowa on March 22, 2008 … should the Lady Bucs get out of the first round, ETSU has faced Ball State once and Tennessee 14 times … overall the Lady Bucs are 1-15 against these two teams, with ETSU’s only win coming against Tennessee … ETSU’s last visit to E.A. Diddle Arena came last season when the Lady Toppers defeated the Lady Bucs, 90-73, in the Preseason WNIT on Nov. 9, 2007.

BACK-TO-BACK ATLANTIC SUN TOURNAMENT TITES FOR THE LADY BUCS With their 58-52 win over Jacksonville in the Atlantic Sun Championship, the Lady Bucs became the first team since Georgia State to repeat as conference champions … Georgia State won three consecutive tournaments from 2001-03. ETSU ENDS JACKSONVILLE’S SEASON FOR THIRD STRAIGHT YEAR It is safe to say the Lady Bucs have the Jacksonville Dolphins number when it comes to head-to-head match-ups … ETSU has won nine of the 10 games in the overall series, as well as ending JU’s season the last three season – marking the first time a team has accomplished this feat since Georgia Southern knocked off Florida A&M four straight times from 1987-90. ETSU MEN’S AND WOMEN’S TEAMS ARE BOTH GOING DANCING For the first time in school history both the ETSU men’s and women’s basketball teams are going to the NCAA Tournament in the same season … the Lady Bucs made their first ever trip to the Big Dance a year ago, while the men have now made it eight trips to the tourney … ETSU joins 25 other schools to have both the men and women participating in the NCAA Tournament in 2009. TENNESSEE TEAMS IN THE BIG DANCE ETSU represents one of five teams from the state of Tennessee in the 2009 NCAA Tournament (Tennessee, Vanderbilt, MTSU, Austin Peay) … ironically, just like the men’s bracket in Dayton, should both the ETSU and Tennessee men’s and women’s teams win its first round game, it would then set up a second-round match-up against both squads. LADY BUCS VS. THE TOURNAMENT FIELD The Lady Bucs have faced four teams in this year’s NCAA Tournament field, with ETSU going 0-4 against those foes … the Lady Bucs played at Evansville (73-83), at Liberty (54-64), at Georgia (57-77) and versus Vanderbilt (55-66). BLOCKER BRINGS SOME MAGIC BACK TO ETSU Current assistant DeShawne Blocker was one of ETSU’s greatest players of all-time and tallied some impressive statistics during her playing days in Johnson City … Blocker played for head coach Karen Kemp during her senior year (1994-95) and that season marked the Lady Bucs’ first-ever postseason appearance (WNIT) … now since Blocker was hired as an assistant back in 2006-07, she has been brought that postseason magic back to the Lady Bucs, as she has helped guide ETSU to three straight postseason trips since being hired (2007 WNIT and 2008 and ‘09 NCAAs). LAST WIN FOR ATLANTIC SUN IN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT The Lady Bucs are looking to become the first team since seventh-seed Florida International knocked off 10th-seed Marquette 59-45 in the first round of the 1998 Mideast Regional located in Chapel Hill, N.C. … ETSU’s No.13-seed is also the best since the Golden Panthers were rewarded the No. 7-seed. THREE STRAIGHT POSTSEASON TRIPS FOR THE LADY BUCS The junior class of Latisha Belcher, Siarre Evans, Devin Thompson and TaRonda Wiles are the only players in ETSU history to make postseason play in three straight years … in 2007, the Lady Bucs represented the A-Sun Conference in the WNIT and now after winning back-to-back conference tournaments, ETSU has made consecutive trips to the NCAA Tournament. LADY BUCS CLEAN UP BIG IN POSTSEASON AWARDS The Atlantic Sun office released the 2009 women’s basketball postseason winners on Tuesday, and the Lady Bucs had a lot to be smiling about … four Lady Buccaneer players won awards – including Siarre Evans taking home Player of the Year honors and Latisha Belcher being tabbed Defensive Player of the Year … Evans became just the fifth player in ETSU history to win Player of the Year accolades and the first since Tiffani Mayes won the 2005 SoCon award … joining Evans and Belcher, were TaRonda Wiles (First Team) and Gwen Washington (All Freshmen Team) … Belcher was also named Second Team All-Conference. MORE HONORS FOR EVANS AND WILES After help guiding ETSU to its second straight tournament title, both juniors Siarre Evans and TaRonda Wiles were named to the Atlantic Sun All-Tournament Team … in addition to All-Tournament Team honors, Evans was selected Tournament MVP after averaging 16 points and 12.5 rebounds in the two games played in Nashville … Wiles led the Lady Bucs with 18.5 points per game and hit 50-percent from the floor (15-of-30) … it also marked the second straight year both Wiles and Evans were named to the all-tournament team. EVANS RECEIVES MORE NATIONAL PUB On Tuesday, junior Siarre Evans learned she has been named one of 52 regional finalists for the 2009 State Farm Coaches’ All-America Basketball Team for the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I … Evans was joined by Auburn’s Whitney Boddie and DeWanna Bonner, Florida’s Sha Brooks, Allison Hightower from LSU, Ashley Houts from Georgia and Vanderbilt’s Christina Wirth in the region 3 selections … other notables

The victory not only gave the Lady Bucs their third straight 20-win season (20-10), but ETSU also became the first team to punch its ticket to the 2009 NCAA Tournament. In addition, ETSU became the first team since Georgia State (2002-03) to win consecutive A-Sun Tournament titles. The opening six minutes of the first half were tightly contested as the teams combined for one tie and five lead changes, but with the Lady Bucs up 9-8; Jacksonville got hot and used a 12-2 run to grab a 20-11 advantage at the 8:44 mark after the Dolphins drained back-to-back threes. ETSU answered the JU attack with an 8-2 spurt and got to within three, 22-19, after White laid one in with 5:11 remaining in the half. Then, after Jacksonville went nearly four minutes without scoring, Lynsey Paschal got the Dolphins back into rhythm as she pushed their lead up to seven, 26-19. However, the Lady Bucs were fortunate White showed up with some intensity and wanted to be a leader, as she scored the last eight points for ETSU to close the gap to 2823 at intermission. Jacksonville opened the second half with a 3-pointer by Courtney Jackson, but the Lady Bucs continued to fight and Wiles’ baseline jumper cut the deficit to four, 31-27, with 17:48 left in the contest. From there, ETSU continued building its run, and Gwen Washington’s first field goal of the game put the Lady Bucs on top 34-33 with 15:17 on the clock – giving the top-seeded team their first lead since the 14:18 mark of the first half (9-8). Overall the Lady Bucs mounted a 12-0 run and grabbed a 39-33 lead after Evans sank a trey in front of the ETSU bench, but Jacksonville didn’t budge. The Dolphins responded with 10 unanswered of their own and regained a 43-39 lead when Valerie Jones connected on a jumper, but an Evans three and a Belcher lay in quickly put ETSU back up 44-43 at the 8:55 mark. Those shots by Evans and Belcher fueled a 12-0 run as ETSU’s defense kept JU scoreless for over six minutes and twelve seconds, and the Lady Bucs built a 51-43 lead with less than four minutes to play. Then, with ETSU leading 55-45, Jacksonville made things interesting by closing the deficit to three, 55-52, but the Lady Bucs held off any chance of an upset by sinking three of their five free throw attempts down the stretch to secure a second straight trip to the Big Dance.

making the final cut from different regions were Connecticut’s Maya Moore and Renee Montgomery, Oklahoma’s Courtney Paris, Kristi Toliver from Maryland, Rashanda McCants from North Carolina and Rutgers’ Epiphanny Prince and Kia Vaughn … the State Farm Coaches’ All-America Team selection committee will review these 52 candidates and cut the list to 40 finalists on Thursday, March 25. The 40 finalists will all be in the running for selection to the 10-member State Farm Coaches’ All-America Team. EVANS AND WILES EYEING THE 500-POINT PLATEAU Both Siarre Evans and TaRonda Wiles have a chance to break the 500-point plateau in Bowling Green this weekend … Evans enters the Tournament with 499 total points scored this season, while Wiles has notched 485 points … the last player to score 500 points in a single season was B.J. Banjo back in 2005-06 (516 points) … the last time two Lady Buccaneer players accomplished this special feat was when DeShawne Blocker and Amy Engle did it back in 1994-95 … Blocker netted a school record 730 points that season and Engle added 537. EVANS WAS FIRED UP IN FEBRUARY Junior Siarre Evans has played outstanding basketball all season long, but during the month of February, the Griffin, Ga. native took her game to a whole new level … Evans recorded six doubledoubles, and averaged 20.6 points, 11.4 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.3 steals in 35.1 minutes of play … in addition, Evans has hit 48.3 percent from the floor (58-120), 43.2 from beyond the arc (19-44) and 76.9 percent from the charity stripe (30-39) … Evans has also recorded new career high in points (35), three-pointers made (6) and rebounds (18) this month. THE LAST FINAL A-SUN POTW GOES TO… Prior to winning the Atlantic Sun Player of the Year award, junior Siarre Evans claimed the league’s final Player of the Week award on Monday, March 2, moving her career total to four (second this season) … Evans averaged 25.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 3.0 steals in three league games … in addition, Evans shot 46.2 percent from field, 42.9 from beyond the arc and 76.0 percent from the free throw line … the junior preseason all-conference selection put the Lady Bucs on her back and rallied them to a 90-84 win at Upstate on Feb. 23 – finishing with a career high 35 points and grabbing 11 rebounds … Evans shot 11-for-21, while going 6-of-11 from beyond the arc (setting a new career best) and dished out five assists and forced two steals as well. Then, on Thursday, Feb. 26 against Kennesaw State, Evans recorded her sixth straight doubledouble (16th of the season) after posting a game high 26 points and 12 rebounds, as well as dishing out three assists and forcing a career-tying six steals in the 73-66 win over the Owls. The Griffin, Ga. native finished the regular season with a 15-point, 8-rebound performance in the 90-79 loss to Mercer on Saturday, Feb. 28. BELCHER IS TWO STEALS AWAY Junior Latisha Belcher enters the NCAA Tournament only two steals away from setting a new single-season record at ETSU … Nicole Hopson recorded 90 thefts in 1990-91, while Belcher’s 89 steals currently rank second. 24+35=NEW A-SUN SCORING LEADER After scoring 24 points at Campbell and 35 at Upstate, Siarre Evans moved past teammate TaRonda Wiles for the A-Sun scoring lead (16.6) … Evans leads Wiles (16.2), and one or both will look to become the first Lady Buccaneer player to win a scoring title since Tiffani Mayes won the SoCon title after averaging 19.7ppg in 200405 ... current assistant coach DeShawne Blocker won the 1994-95 SoCon scoring title (24.3) and Nicole Hopson (1990-91) claimed the scoring crown after averaging 22.4ppg. ROAD WARRIROS The Lady Bucs have enjoyed playing away from Johnson City over the last six games, as ETSU is 6-0 in those last six contests (two on neutral court) … in these six games, the Lady Bucs are averaging 76.0 points per game and hitting 45.3 percent from the field (162358) … meanwhile, ETSU has posted a +9.5 rebound margin (43.7 to 34.2) and averaged 18.3 assists per game ... individually, Siarre

ETSU STARTERS COMING THROUGH IN THE CLUTCH In the last eight games, ETSU’s starting five of Siarre Evans, TaRonda Wiles, Latisha Belcher, Tara Davis and Gwen Washington have stepped up in a big way for the Lady Bucs … these eight players have accounted for 88 percent of ETSU’s scoring during this span, as they have scored 537 of the 608 points … in total, the Lady Buccaneer starters are posting 67.7 points to the 76.0ppg averaged over the eight contests … in addition, the ETSU starting five have also combined for 275 of the 354 total rebounds collected (78 percent) and have played in 1330 of the 1600 total minutes in the last eight games as well … however, ETSU is 7-1 in these contests. LADY BUCCANEER WIN AT KENTUCKY EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE Back on Dec. 12, 2008, the Lady Bucs upset Kentucky 59-50 in Lexington, and that win marked ETSU’s third victory over a SEC program in the last four years … however, following the Wildcats’ 66-56 win over Tennessee last month (Feb. 19), ETSU’s win over Kentucky looks even more impressive. LADY BUCS TIE A NEW PROGRAM RECORD With the 86-76 win over Belmont on Feb. 15, ETSU secured itself a fourth straight winning season, which ties the longest stretch in Lady Buccaneer history … Susan Yow – the sister of the late Kay Yow – also posted four straight winning seasons from 1980-1984. MORE RECORDS BROKEN… Since joining the A-Sun in 2005-06, the Lady Bucs have won 14 conference games in each of their first four seasons … with its win over USC Upstate on Feb. 23, ETSU set a new program record with 15 conference victories, and after knocking off Kennesaw State on Feb. 26, the Lady Bucs moved that mark to 16 wins in the A-Sun. LADY BUCS IN THE NATIONAL RANKINGS When looking at the national rankings list, ETSU is in the top-50 in three categories … the Lady Bucs currently rank seventh in the country in steals (12.2), 32nd in scoring offense (71.0) and 47th in assists (14.7) … individually, Siarre Evans ranks 15th in rebounding (10.4) and 62nd in scoring (16.6), while Latisha Belcher ranks 12th in steals (3.0) and TaRonda Wiles is 76th in points per game (16.2). EVANS CLIMBS UP THE SCORING LIST Junior Siarre Evans entered the 2008-09 season only 184 points shy of becoming the 16th Lady Buccaneer player to reach the 1,000-point club … in her 13th game of the season and 77th of her career, the Griffin, Ga. native entered the elite club, as her 13-point performance at Stetson moved her career total to 1,002 points … currently, Evans has scored 1,315 career points, which ranks 6th all-time in program history … after her 12-point effort against Jacksonville in the A-Sun Finals, Evans moved past Jennifer Campbell on the all-time scoring list, and the Griffin, Ga. native is now 13 points shy of moving past B.J. Banjo for fifth … it also marked the second consecutive season that a Lady Buc player joined the club, as DeVault joined the group on 1/12/08 vs. Gardner-Webb. EVANS MOVIN’ UP THE REBOUNDING LIST Siarre Evans is not only climbing up the scoring charts, but she is also moving up the rebounding list too ... the Griffin, Ga. native grabbed a career high 18 boards against FGCU last month, and currently has 773 career rebounds, which ranks seventh all-time at ETSU … the next Lady Buccaneer player for Evans to past is Jackie Phillips, who finished her career with 785 career boards.

CLOSE CALLS Of the 30 Lady Buccaneer games this season, 15 have been decided by nine points or less and eight by six or fewer … 10 of ETSU’s 20 wins have been decided by nine points or less, with the 10 double-digit wins being against Mercer (82-60), Belmont (twice), Lipscomb (twice), Stetson (92-63), Jacksonville (65-54), USC Upstate (80-68), Campbell (87-57), and UNF (56-42) … three of the Lady Bucs’ victories have been decided by four points of less – including two by one-point (at Kennesaw State, 79-78OT, and at Stetson, 53-52). LAST 24 BETTER THAN FIRST SIX The Lady Bucs have enjoyed their last 24-game stretch, as they are 1-5 in those games; however, in its first six games this season ETSU went 19-5 … the difference between these set of games has to deal with better defensive play and finding the open shooter … in their first six games the Lady Bucs allowed 74.7ppg, dished out 68 assists (11.3 per game) and were whistled for 125 fouls, compared to the 64.3ppg allowed and 373 assists (15.5) in the last 24 games. KEMP REACHES THE 200-WIN MILESTONE Head coach Karen Kemp became the first coach in Lady Buccaneer history to reach the 200-win plateau on Thursday, Jan. 8 … ETSU’s 75-67 win over Florida Gulf Coast marked Kemp’s 200th career victory and moved ETSU to the .500 mark for the first time this season … since the start of the 2005-06 season, Kemp has posted 79 victories over that span, and has also guided the Lady Bucs to a program-tying four consecutive winning seasons … Kemp currently has posted a program-best 214 victories in her career. HAVING FUN IN THE A-SUN The Lady Bucs have enjoyed a lot of success since joining the A-Sun in 2005-06 … since joining the league, the Lady Buccaneers have averaged 14 conference wins a year, including a league-best 14-2 mark a year ago and a school record 16 wins this season …in total, ETSU is 58-16 (.784) since moving into the A-Sun … in addition, ETSU posted 20 straight home games against CURRENT A-Sun foes and won 13 straight prior to falling to FGCU back on Feb. 7 … the Lady Bucs have also won 34 of their last 39 games against conference foes (includes the 2008 and 2009 A-Sun Tournaments). BELCHER CLEANED UP IN CONFERENCE PLAY Junior Latisha Belcher picked up where she left off last year when it comes to playing against conference opponents … after being tabbed 2008 Atlantic Sun Tournament MVP last season, the Martinsville, Va. native didn’t lose a step in 2008-09 … in 20 conference games, Belcher is averaged 13.2ppg, 8.3rpg, 3.1 steals and posted a 52.9 shooting percentage (99-187) … the junior finished the conference slate first in steals, second in field goal percentage, third in rebounding and first in steals 10th in scoring … Belcher was also named A-Sun Player of the Week for the first time in her career on Jan. 12 … the junior star posted back-to-back 18-point efforts at FGCU and Stetson, while hitting an amazing 72.7 (16-for-22) percent from the floor.

75 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER Since the 2002-03 season the Lady Bucs are an astonishing 65-5 when the Lady Buccaneers hit the 75-point plateau, including 38-2 since 2006 … prior to the Lady Bucs’ 90-79 loss to Mercer, ETSU’s last loss when scoring at least 75 points came on Feb. 15, 2007, when Jacksonville downed the Lady Bucs, 83-79, inside Swisher Gym. KEEP PICKING THEIR POCKETS Through 30 contests this year the Lady Buccaneers have forced 12.2 steals per game, which ranks first in the A-Sun and eighth in the country … ETSU forced a team-best 21 picks at UNF last month … junior post Latisha Belcher – who thrives on improving her defense and forcing steals – leads the conference with 3.0 per game (89 total this season) and is two thefts away of setting a new single-season record as well. SEC MAGIC With the 59-50 victory over Kentucky back on Dec. 12, ETSU has now made it three wins in the last four years over a SEC foe … last season, the Lady Bucs knocked off Alabama in Tuscaloosa, 73-62, for their first road win of the season … in 2005-06, ETSU kicked off the season with a 78-53 romp over Mississippi State in Starkville. EVANS, BELCHER AND WILES EACH RECEIVE A-SUN WEEKLY HONORS Siarre Evans (twice), Latisha Belcher and TaRonda Wiles have each received Atlantic Sun Player of the Week honors this season … Evans received hers on Dec. 22 after finishing with 19 points and 16 rebounds in the 79-78 win at Kennesaw State, and again, on Monday, March 2 after averaging an astonishing 25.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 3.0 steals … Belcher was tabbed POTW on Jan. 12 after she averaged 18 points and 7.0 rebounds, while connecting on 72.7 percent of her shots in the wins at FGCU and Stetson … Wiles received the honor one week later (Jan. 19) after pouring in a career high 31 points vs. Belmont and averaging 20.7 points per game in the three games against Liberty, Belmont and Lipscomb. CALLING ALL SENIORS? The 2008-09 ETSU roster consists of four juniors, five sophomores and three freshmen, however, the Lady Bucs do not have a single senior on their team … the Lady Bucs are one of two team in the Atlantic Sun to not post at least one senior on their roster, with the other team being Florida Gulf Coast. SIARRE’S SOARING For the second straight year Siarre Evans was named to the Preseason All-Conference Team. In her first two years, the Griffin, Ga. native has also received First Team All-conference honors and has positioned herself as one of the top players in the league. The junior guard has played in 94 games (starting 91) since arriving on campus, and is averaging 14.0 points and 8.2 rebounds in her career. Evans also has an outside shot of becoming only the third player in Lady Buccaneer history to record 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds, as she has scored 1,315 points and is 227 rebounds short of eclipsing the 1,000 rebound mark. THE SCHEDULE OF ALL SCHEDULES When fans look back at ETSU’s 2008-09 regular season slate they may be asking themselves what coach Kemp was thinking, as the Lady Bucs’ schedule featured seven teams who appeared in postseason play a year ago … ETSU began the year on the road at Evansville (WNIT participant) and Chattanooga (NCAA participant) and the Lady Bucs hosted then 12th-ranked and SEC favorite Vanderbilt in its home opener on Nov. 21 ... in addition, ETSU travelled to Georgia (NCAA participant) on Dec. 1, and made a stop to Kentucky (WNIT participant) on Dec. 12 … the Lady Bucs also travelled to FGCU – who represented the A-Sun in the 2008 postseason WNIT – and went to Liberty (NCAA participant) … of the Lady Bucs’ eight non-conference opponents, six of them played in the postseason last year. WHAT’S AT STAKE The winner of the Bowling Green pod will travel to Berkley, Calif. and play in the Sweet 16 … those games will be played March 28 inside Cal’s Haas Pavilion.

win milestone, doing so when her team defeated Western Carolina at Memorial Center on Feb. 11, 2002. Two years later Kemp became the all-time wins leader when her Lady Bucs defeated Davidson on Feb. 7, 2004, capturing her 119th career victory.

Last season Kemp’s club made history by winning the 2008 Atlantic Sun regular season and tournament championships, which marked the first time in Lady Buccaneer history the team was represented in the NCAA Tournament.

During Kemp’s tenure at ETSU, the Lady Bucs have reached peaks never before achieved in the program’s history. Kemp’s 1994-95 squad tied a school record with 21 victories and won the only Southern Conference regular season title in school history. That team went on to participate in the National Women’s Invitational Tournament, also a first for a Lady Buc squad.

The 2007-08 squad accumulated numerous accolades, as four ETSU student-athletes as well as coach Kemp won Atlantic Sun postseason awards. Kemp was tabbed Coach of the Year by her peers for the second time in her career and her team also achieved high standards in the classroom, by having five Lady Bucs named to the Atlantic Sun All-Academic Team. As a team, ETSU broke four school records in 2008, and the Lady Bucs’ NCAA Tournament appearance marked the second straight year ETSU earned a trip to postseason play. In total, Kemp has guided the Lady Bucs to all three of their postseason berths.

Playing Career: Berry College (1982-85) Two-Time All-American

Kemp returns eight players from last year’s team that tied the school record with 21 wins and is looking to post ETSU’s fourth consecutive winning season. In addition, Kemp is six victories shy of the 200-win plateau. During her tenure at ETSU, coach Kemp has had the privilege to coach All-America standout and now current assistant, DeShawne Blocker, as well as numerous allconference selections. In her career, Kemp has coached over 20 all-conference award recipients, including three Player of the Year winners and two Freshman of the Year candidates. In 2006-07, the Lady Bucs posted their best season since 1994-95, when Kemp took over the reins and led ETSU to a school-record-tying 21-win campaign and its first-ever postseason appearance. Kemp did it again in 2007 as ETSU made its second postseason appearance in Lady Buccaneer history. Kemp’s crew finished with a 20-12, 14-4 A-Sun record, marking the first time since the end of 2000 that ETSU posted back-to-back winning seasons. Kemp’s squad was busy both on and off the court during the 2006-07 season as eight student-athletes received conference accolades for their hard work and dedication. ETSU was led by seniors Brooke Wilhoit and Holly Moring, both named to the Atlantic Sun All-Academic team, along with freshmen TaRonda Wiles and Sarah Muniz. Wilhoit and junior sharpshooter Michele DeVault received Second Team All-Atlantic Sun honors, while Kemp’s successful recruiting skills paid off as a trio of freshman stars were recognized for their efforts on the court as well. Latisha Belcher battled through a series of knee injuries to finish off a stellar rookie campaign by receiving A-Sun All-Tournament honors, and Devin Thompson joined teammate Siarre Evans on the league’s All-Freshman Team. Kemp had the privilege to coach her first-ever Freshman of the Year candidate as Evans was tabbed the winner, as well as taking home Atlantic Sun First Team honors. Under Kemp’s watch, 12 different players have received conference awards in the team’s two-year stint in the Atlantic Sun. Since joining the A-Sun ETSU has posted 42 conference wins over the last three seasons, which marks the second highest total over the span among active members in the league. The 42 victories also set a school record for most conference wins in three consecutive seasons. Kemp is just the second ETSU head coach to reach the 100-

ETSU also placed two players, DeShawne Blocker and Amy Engle, on the All-Southern Conference First Team and Southern Conference Tournament First Team, a first for Lady Buc basketball. Both Blocker and Engle earned league Player-of-the-Year honors. Kemp also coached then-junior Tiffani Mayes to All-Southern Conference First Team accolades during the 2003-04 season while also directing junior Brooke Wilhoit to a spot on the 2003-04 All-Southern Conference Freshman squad. Kemp was rewarded for her efforts by being named 1995 Southern Conference Coach-of-the-Year, becoming the only first-year head coach to win the award. Kemp’s 1996-97 team jumped out to a 7-3 start, winning the Southeast Missouri State Tournament, the second regularseason tourney title during her tenure (University of Houston Tournament, 1994). After struggling with injuries following the Christmas break, the Lady Bucs sprang back to make Southern Conference history in the first round of the league tournament. Playing at Furman, the 1997 regular-season champion, the eighth-seeded Lady Bucs pulled off a 64-62 victory, marking the first time in league history that the regular season champion had been defeated in the first round of the Southern Conference Tournament. ETSU then advanced to Greensboro for the semifinal round of the league tourney, losing on a last-second three-pointer. While her teams have been a success on the court, Kemp’s squads have reached even greater heights in the classroom. Thirty-one of the 34 players who have completed their eligibility under Kemp have gone on to earn their degrees. Kemp, named head coach on August 8, 1994, came to ETSU after successful stints as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Mississippi State University and the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga. A native of Chatsworth, Ga., Kemp spent seven seasons at Chattanooga where she helped guide the Lady Mocs to Southern Conference regular season titles in 1991 and 1992 and the Southern Conference Tournament Championship in 1989 and 1992. In 1988, Kemp took on the added duties of Senior Women’s Administrator at UTC and was responsible for the administration of six intercollegiate sports. Prior to joining the UTC staff, Kemp served as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Mississippi State. Kemp played on the collegiate level at Berry College in Mount Berry, Ga., where she was a two-time All-America selection while helping lead the school to a four-year record of 120-19. A four-year starter, she averaged over 12 points and nine rebounds during her career and was a four-time NAIA All-District pick. She was also named to the NAIA National All-Tournament team as a freshman and junior. Kemp earned a B.S. degree in interdisciplinary studies from Berry College in 1985. She is married to Eddie Gregory and is the mother of two children: Marcus (16) and LaKeisha (11).

RECORD: ALL GAMES CONFERENCE NON-CONFERENCE


Lady Bucs inspired By Joe Avento Press Sports Writer javento@johnsoncitypress.com After getting a taste of the NCAA tournament last year, the East Tennessee State women’s basketball team wants to hang around a little longer this time around. The Lady Bucs will face Iowa State in the first round Sunday at 7 p.m. at Bowling Green, Ky. ETSU (20-10) was seeded 13th in the Berkeley Region; Iowa State (24-8) is the fourth seed. “Last year we were thrilled to be there,” ETSU coach Karen Kemp said. “It was the first time in the history of the school. And now we want to go and make some noise and win games.” Last year, in its first NCAA appearance, ETSU lost 85-73 in the first round to Oklahoma State. Kemp and her players joined the team’s supporters at Fanatics for a selection party on Monday night. As the tournament’s pairings were revealed, the tension mounted. After earning the Atlantic Sun Conference’s automatic bid, the Lady Bucs figured to be somewhere between a 13th and 15th seed. But after seeing what happened to the men’s team a day earlier — a 16th seed — they weren’t taking anything for granted. When the pairing was finally announced, it drew a cheer from the crowd. And the Lady Bucs seemed pleased with the matchup. “The first thing on my mind was I wanted to play a team we had a chance to beat,” ETSU forward Latisha Belcher said. “We know we can win this one. Any team you put us against, we’re going to show our determination. This gives us a lot of confidence.” Iowa State, ranked 17th in the latest Associated Press poll, has three players averaging in double figures, none more than Heather Ezell’s 11.8 points a game. The Cyclones were 15-1 at home, 9-7 away from Ames, Iowa. They lost 63-57 to Baylor in the Big 12 semifinals. The two teams had one common opponent. Iowa State beat Vanderbilt 55-51. ETSU lost to the Commodores 66-55. “I was ready to see who we played,” ETSU guard TaRonda Wiles said. “I was kind of happy it wasn’t UConn. I think we can play with Iowa State.” Should the Lady Bucs win, they would face the winner of Tennessee and Ball State on Tuesday night. ETSU played a difficult non-conference schedule, falling to Wake Forest, Georgia and Vanderbilt. The defining nonconference win — the one that likely helped it get a 13th seed — was a 59-50 decision at Kentucky. “I think that was a big part of it,” Kemp said. “That was my goal when I made that schedule a year ago. If we got to this point that the committee would take that into consideration. I really feel like when they sat down, they looked at that.” Even before the pairings were announced, ETSU’s Siarre Evans, the A-Sun’s player of the year and the tournament’s MVP, had a scouting report on Iowa State. She had seen an on-line projected bracket that had the two teams matched up, so she started to do her homework. “I know they shoot a lot of threes,” Evans said. “We know we’re gonna have to defend the three.” Kemp laughed when told of Evans’ early game planning. “Siarre, she thinks she has a scouting report on everybody,” Kemp said. “But you know what? Any time there’s a women’s basketball game going on, she’s watching. She’s texting me all the time ... ‘Coach, if we get Iowa State we can get them.’ She was telling me that this morning. She does her homework.” Evans said playing in last year’s NCAA tournament has the Lady Bucs better prepared this time. “We’re on a mission,” she said. “We know what to expect this year. We’re more comfortable and we’re more experienced.”


ETSU basketball: A double dip of sweetness in Nashville By Kelly Hodge Press Managing Sports Editor khodge@johnsoncitypress.com As East Tennessee State’s athletic director, Dave Mullins couldn’t have dreamed up a better scenario than the one that played out last Saturday in Nashville. Not once, but twice, Mullins was able to stand on the floor with a bunch of happy fans at Lipscomb’s Allen Arena and watch players and coaches cut down the nets. It was the final act of championship runs in the Atlantic Sun Conference, both women’s and men’s, hours apart. Two tickets to the NCAAs. “That was a special day for us,” Mullins said Monday. “I’m so happy for our players and coaches, first of all. When you start out the year, the first thing you talk about is what your goals are, and that’s winning championships and getting to the tournament. I know how hard the teams work, all the hours and effort and sweat and tears they put into it. Our staff does an awful lot of planning behind the scenes, working with donors, corporate sponsors, the ticket holders, the Buc Wild student group. So much time and energy goes into it. “When it all culminates like it did Saturday, that’s the payoff. It was a pretty historic day.” It’s even better if basketball is your flagship sport. For the Lady Bucs, this will be back-to-back years in the big tournament after never having advanced that far previously. The Bucs will make their eighth NCAA appearance overall but the first in five years. Having both teams involved in March Madness will net the university some money back through the conference. The amount grows the longer your team can stick around, and in the power conferences it can add up quick. For a mid-major like ETSU, in a one-bid league, the experience is always priceless. “It’s hard to quantify the dollars,” said Mullins, “but just the institutional pride, from that standpoint we’ve gotten so many messages and congratulatory notes from alums around the country. Getting to play on ESPN2 was big because the game was accessible almost everywhere. We’ve gotten e-mails from a lot of former players. I got a phone call from Mike Kretzer just before the Jacksonville game, saying he and a bunch of buddies were in a sports bar on the New Jersey coast and wanted to wish us luck. I heard from Ed DeChellis soon after we won. “You just don’t realize how many people are tuned into it. I remember last year with our women’s team out in Des Moines, Iowa, we ended up with probably 20 alums who lived around there and came to the game wearing old ETSU sweatshirts they had as students. We didn’t even know they were out there. It’s just a neat experience all around.” And it passes all too quickly. The Bucs have won a tournament game only twice — when they beat Arizona in 1992, and Florida State back in 1968. They’ve had a bunch of close calls, losing to Oklahoma by a point as a 16-seed in ’89, and later to Iowa, Wake Forest and Cincinnati, all by three points. Whether that history will be helpful in the seeding process this time remains to be seen. Probably not. “I’ve tried to get a feel from the (A-Sun) commissioner (Ted Gumbart); he’ll be on the phones today and we’ll share any information we might get,” said Mullins. “It’s always a speculating game. Belmont was a 15 last year, and we know we’re going to be somewhere from 16 to 13 probably. We just hope for the best.” For what it’s worth, the CBS Sports website projects the Bucs as a No. 16, matched against UConn in Philadelphia. Sports Illustrated/CNN has them as a 15, opening against Oklahoma in Kansas City. Suffice it to say, they’ll be playing one of the country’s best teams. Of course, as coach Murry Bartow is quick to point out, it’s all about matchups this time of year. Belmont was a 15-seed last March and could easily have knocked off Duke, which was more finesse than power. Any of the prospective top seeds will be plenty powerful in a first-round game; they’ve never lost one.


“Coaches always have a feel for who they’d like to play,” said Mullins. “I guess it’s kind of a pick-your-poison thing. But we’ve seen from this team that it’s capable of playing a high level of basketball, especially lately.” The preferred first-round site for ETSU fans would certainly be Greensboro; they can be there in three hours. Dayton and Philly are less attractive but perhaps doable. Then there’s Miami, Minneapolis, Boise and Portland, along with Kansas City. “With all the financial issues — and the NCAA faces some that the rest of us have; it has laid some people off — I think they’ll be pretty judicious in how they assign sites,” said Mullins. “I met this morning with our staff to look at sites and the travel possibilities. We’d love to stay close, but we always say that we’ll go where they send us. We just want the best matchup and go play.” The Bucs are now 23-10 after five straight wins, all by double figures. None was more satisfying than the 88-74 semifinal victory over Belmont. The Bruins had knocked them out two straight years, and last year’s loss has been burned into everyone’s memory, with the late technical foul on Kenyona Swader. Mullins had a chance last week to speak with Swader, who was in Nashville to watch his old team and perhaps exorcise a few demons. “All he said was, ‘Coach, I just came back to support the team,’” said Mullins. “He didn’t dwell on the past, but I know it had to be hard for him to come back. Kenyona is such a quiet, mild-mannered person, and you just hated to see what happened to him. To come back, I think, showed a lot of class. He gave Murry a big hug after the game and had some private words with him.” The championship was also vindication for some sins of the regular season, sins that have now been pardoned. “I feel we vindicated ourselves for some letdowns during the season,” said Mullins. “We all felt we should won the Jacksonville game down there, and the Belmont game in Nashville was winnable. We also had a tough time with Stetson at home. “We were able to beat all three of those teams at the tournament. Now we don’t have to look back.”


Lady Bucs dance to title By Joe Avento Press Sports Writer javento@johnsoncitypress.com NASHVILLE — Karen Kemp got a head start to the Big Dance in more ways than one. After the East Tennessee State women’s basketball team won its second consecutive Atlantic Sun Conference tournament championship with a 58-52 victory over Jacksonville at Allen Arena, Kemp joined the celebration by dancing in front of ETSU’s supporters.

Her players put a quick end to it. The Lady Bucs ambushed Kemp with a cooler full of water. As the coach did her dance number, with a little help from the team’s mascot, the contents of the cooler made a direct hit, leaving Kemp drenched and sprawled out on the team’s bench. “I know who it was, right here,” Kemp said, pointing to tournament MVP Siarre Evans. “But it’s OK. Any way they want to celebrate, they can do that.” The Lady Bucs were celebrating their second trip to the NCAA tournament in as many years, and they earned it with a hard-fought victory over the same team they had beaten in last year’s final. Evans had 12 points and 15 rebounds for her 18th double-double of the season, and TaRonda Wiles scored 15 points to also make the all-tournament team. Shannon White gave the Lady Bucs a big lift in the first half with 10 points, more than eight higher than her season average. “It really feels good to get another championship under our belt,” Kemp said. “We had to fight for it for 40 minutes, but fortunately we kept out composure and we were able to bring another championship to Johnson City and East Tennessee State.” The top-seeded Lady Bucs improved to 20-10, their third consecutive 20-victory season. Jacksonville, the second seed, finished at 19-13. While Evans was the MVP of the tournament, White was the MVP of the first half. The sophomore forward, who was averaging 1.7 points a game, scored 10 in the first half to surpass her career high. “I just came out ready to win,” White said. “I just wanted to do whatever it took to help my team win.” White made five of her six shots, yet Jacksonville was ahead 28-23 at halftime. It would have been much worse without White’s contributions. The rest of the team shot a combined 5 for 27 in the opening half. “What a huge spark she gave them,” Jacksonville coach Jill Dunn said. “That was the difference in the game.” Facing the five-point deficit at halftime, Kemp walked into the locker room without saying a word and wrote a simple message on the blackboard. “We are going to win,” it said. Her players got the point. “It let us know that she wasn’t worried about anything,” Wiles said. “It kind of eased our minds so we could just go out there and play.” A 16-2 run early in the second half enabled ETSU to erase an 8-point deficit. By the time Evans drilled a 3-point shot, the Lady Bucs led 39-33. Jacksonville scored the next 10 points and went back ahead 43-39, but then went cold. The Dolphins didn’t score for the next 6:10 as ETSU went on a decisive 12-0 spurt to go up 51-43. Wiles scored on a drive with 2:16 left, giving the Lady Bucs their biggest lead at 55-45. They coasted home despite missing four free throws in the final 1:30.


While Wiles was the Lady Bucs’ leading scorer in the tournament with 37 points in the two games, Evans was an easy choice as MVP. She finished with 25 rebounds while scoring 32 points and made a big play about every time her team needed one. Regina Omoite led Jacksonville with 10 points. She also made the all-tournament team. It was the first time in A-Sun women’s tournament history that every game was won by the higher-seeded team. ETSU will return home and begin preparations for the NCAA tournament, where it fell to Oklahoma State in last year’s first round. “It feels great,” Evans said. “The first year we went, we were happy to be there. This year we’re hoping to go and win a game in the first round.”


Evans' double-double lifts ETSU to second consecutive NCAA tourney berth NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The East Tennessee State Lady Bucs know how to celebrate even if it's better suited to a football field than a hardwood floor.

The first women's team to clinch an automatic berth into the 2009 NCAA tournament as winners of the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament -- the Lady Bucs' second straight -- enjoyed the moment Saturday by dousing ETSU coach Karen Kemp with a bucket of Gatorade. "Whew, it's cold," Kemp said as she sat down to talk about their championship with a net hanging around her neck. Siarre Evans scored 12 points and grabbed 15 rebounds, and East Tennessee State earned the school's second overall trip to the NCAA tournament by beating Jacksonville 58-52 for the Atlantic Sun championship for a second consecutive year. Kemp pointed at Evans, the Atlantic Sun's player of the year and the tournament's most valuable player, for initiating the wet celebration. Kemp had been dancing beside the school mascot and was heading toward a seat on the bench when several of her Lady Bucs drenched her. "As I went to sit, that's when it hit me. I had no clue it was on its way. I was hoping that we could get it in the locker room because I would've been ready for that. I wasn't ready for it on the floor," Kemp said. "That's OK. Anyway they want to celebrate, we'll do that." The Lady Bucs (20-10) hadn't been to the NCAA tournament before winning the Atlantic Sun title a year ago. But they became the league's first team to successfully defend its tournament title since Georgia State repeated in 2002 and 2003 by beating Jacksonville for the eighth straight team and for the ninth in 10 games. The men had a chance to join them later Saturday for the first time in school history, also playing Jacksonville for the men's tournament title. "It feels great," Evans said of another NCAA berth. "The first year we went we were happy to be there. This year, hopefully we can go and win a game." TaRonda Wiles had a game-high 15 points for ETSU, which has won 20 games now in three straight seasons. Shannon White added 10 off the bench all in the first half on 5-of-6 shooting. ETSU outrebounded Jacksonville 50-37 led by Evans' 15, a single-game record for an A-Sun tournament game. Jacksonville (19-13) missed out again on earning the first NCAA tournament berth in school history. Regina Omoite had 10 points for the second-seeded Dolphins who now have lost to ETSU in each of the last three A-Sun tournaments. "Obviously, we're very disappointed with the loss," Jacksonville coach Jill Dunn said. "You have to give ETSU credit. They came out in the second half and really pounded the boards, and I think that was the difference in the game." The Dolphins made it close at the end after trailing by as much as 10 in the final minutes. Omoite hit a 3, and Teneskei Richardson added two free throws to pull within 55-52 with 38 seconds left. But Tara Davis hit two free throws with 31.5 seconds to go for ETSU, and Omoite missed a 3. Wiles added one free throw for the final margin in the final seconds. DaVina Hamilton, Omoite and Virginia Gregoire finished with 74 wins in four years, 14 better than any other group of seniors at Jacksonville. Omoite called it both disappointing and progress for the program. "I mean, we'll be here next year," she said. Jacksonville led 43-39 after a layup by Valerie Jones with 9:41 left. But the Dolphins went cold and didn't hit another shot until Richardson's bucket with 3:28.


The Lady Bucs took advantage as Evans hit a 3 and Belcher scored at 8:56 for the ninth and final lead change as part of a 12-0 run for ETSU. Jacksonville led 28-23 at halftime, but ETSU opened the second half with a 16-5 run capped by a 3-pointer from Evans at 14:12 for a 39-33 lead after Kemp wrote on the board at halftime that the Lady Bucs would win the game. "It let us know she wasn't worried about anything," Wiles said. "It kind of eased our mind so we can go out there and play."


Lady Bucs oust Bears to reach A-Sun final By Joe Avento Press Sports Writer javento@johnsoncitypress.com NASHVILLE — The East Tennessee State women’s basketball team finally beat Mercer, and it came when it counted the most. TaRonda Wiles scored 22 points and Siarre Evans added 20 points and 10 rebounds as the Lady Bucs routed the Bears 82-60 in the semifinals of the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament Friday at Lipscomb’s Allen Arena. The defending champion Lady Bucs (19-10) will face Jacksonville in today’s 1 p.m. championship game, a rematch of last year’s final. ETSU, which swept the regular-season series, beat the Dolphins 75-72 to win last year’s title. The winner earns the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Jacksonville (19-12) beat Belmont 51-49 in the other semifinal. ETSU wanted another shot at Mercer after the Bears swept the regular-season series, including a 90-79 pasting on the Lady Bucs’ home court in the regular-season finale. “Our focus was not revenge, but we knew what we wanted and it made it a lot easier knowing they beat us twice,” ETSU guard Tara Davis said. Revenge or not, the top-seeded Lady Bucs were plenty motivated at the start, and it showed with an early tone-setting run. One minute into the game, Gwen Washington hit a 3-pointer for the first of 14 straight ETSU points. It was the beginning of what turned into a 19-2 spurt. And it was the beginning of a blowout. “I was really proud of the way our team came out and opened up the game,” ETSU coach Karen Kemp said. “We talked about that having to be our focus. We wanted to get a good start and jump on them early. “We had some good games prior to this, but as of late that was definitely the best 10 minutes we played.” The result was an early 21-5 lead, and although Mercer staged a couple of rallies, ETSU was never seriously threatened. “They came out definitely motivated with lots of energy,” said Mercer coach Janell Jones, whose team finished 17-14. “I didn’t think we defended them as hard as they defended us, so they were getting better looks. And they were knocking down their shots.” Mercer cut into the early ETSU lead with an 11-2 run of its own, but the Lady Bucs withstood the mini-rally to lead 44-28 at halftime. Evans gave ETSU its comfortable halftime advantage when she grabbed a rare miss from Wiles, put it back in at the buzzer while being fouled and made the free throw. ETSU shot 62 percent in the first half as Wiles hit six of her first seven shots. “I was thinking we needed to keep up the intensity,” Wiles said. “I guess that was my first business, to keep everybody amped up.” Mercer cut ETSU’s lead to single digits at 66-57 with 6:30 remaining, but the Lady Bucs scored six points in 24 seconds when Evans drilled a 3-pointer and Wiles added a 3-point play to give their team a cushion. Mercer didn’t score over the final 5:10. Davis equaled her career high with 15 points and added seven assists. The 5-foot-5 sophomore point guard also had both of ETSU’s blocked shots. Evans, who leads the conference in scoring and rebounding, picked up her 17th double-double of the season. Washington finished with 11 points. Wiles made 9 of her 14 shots from the field, scoring a variety of ways. “Twenty-two (Wiles), when she gets going, she’s hard to stop,” Kemp said. “It kind of gets contagious.”


The shooting was contagious as the Lady Bucs finished at 54 percent for the game, their best percentage of the season. They were 9 of 20 from 3-point range, led by Davis’ 3-for-6 performance. At the free throw line, it was a different matter. ETSU made 19 of 33 from the stripe, causing Kemp to say “We will be here tomorrow at our shoot-around at least working on free throws.” ETSU out-rebounded Mercer 45-31, but the Bears got 17 offensive boards, leading to 34 points in the paint. The Lady Bucs also committed 19 turnovers. Dominique Chism led Mercer with 18 points. Courtney Ford added 17, going 7 for 23 from the field. The Bears shot 35 percent and went to the line only six times. The Lady Bucs have won t heir last eight games in Nashville. Today will be their third consecutive appearance in the ASun championship game. Jacksonville has beaten ETSU once in seven tries.


Lady Bucs get another shot against Mercer By Joe Avento Press Sports Writer javento@johnsoncitypress.com NASHVILLE — The East Tennessee women’s basketball team is out to win its second consecutive Atlantic Sun Conference tournament. But first, the Lady Bucs have some other business to take care of. And this time, it’s personal. ETSU, the top-seeded team, opens the event today at 1 p.m. with a semifinal matchup against Mercer, the only team to sweep the Lady Bucs this season. The Bears won the first game with ETSU 77-61 and completed the sweep with a 90-79 win at Memorial Center in the regular-season finale. “That’s who they wanted it to be,” ETSU coach Karen Kemp said of her players. “We feel like we owe them a little something. We want to beat them when it really hurts.” The last loss to Mercer cost the Lady Bucs a share of the A-Sun regular-season title. Since Florida Gulf Coast, which won the championship, is still in its classification period to Division I and isn’t eligible for the conference tournament, ETSU got the top seed and a quarterfinal bye. ETSU comes in 18-10. Fourth-seeded Mercer is 17-13 after having beaten Stetson 84-51 in Thursday’s quarterfinal. The game will be televised by CSS. “They took us out of a regular-season title so it would be nice for us to get some payback,” said Siarre Evans, who was chosen as the A-Sun’s player of the year earlier this week. The tournament is being held at Lipscomb’s Allen Fieldhouse, the site of ETSU’s championship last season. The championship is scheduled for Saturday at 1 p.m. ETSU has won its last seven games in Nashville. Evans, a junior forward, was the only player in the league to average double figures in scoring and rebounding, at 16.7 points and 10.3 rebounds an outing. She led the league in both categories. “Nobody deserved it more,” Kemp said of the player of the year award. “She worked so hard every time she steps out on that court. She’s not one dimensional. She does a lot of different things on both ends of the court. She’s not just a scorer. She rebounds too. She is just a really, really good all-around basketball player.” TaRonda Wiles, who averaged 16.0 points a game, joined Evans on the first team. ETSU’s Latisha Belcher, the A-Sun tournament’s MVP last year, was chosen as the league’s defensive player of the year and was a second-team all-conference selection this season. She averaged 12.5 points a game. Mercer had two second-team all-conference picks: Dominique Chism was fourth in the league in scoring at 14.6 points a game and LaToya Jackson averaged 13.2. Wanting another shot at Mercer has taken so much of the Lady Bucs’ attention, they haven’t had time to think about repeating as champs. “That really hasn’t come up yet,” Kemp said. “The main focus the last couple of days was just trying to get better so we don’t let it slip away. We let a share of the regular-season championship slip right out of our fingers. We want to go and defend that.”


Evans’ hot hand lifts Lady Bucs to victory By Jeff Birchfield Press Sports Writer jbirchfield@johnsoncitypress.com Guarding East Tennessee State’s Siarre Evans has become a nightmare for Atlantic Sun Conference opponents. The 5-11 junior scored 26 points and 12 rebounds against Kennesaw State for her sixth straight double-double and 16th overall for the season. Along with six steals on the defensive end, her play led the Lady Bucs to a 73-66 win on Thursday night. “She’s such a winner, such a competitor,” ETSU head coach Karen Kemp said about Evans. “Every night she steps out on the floor, she’s going to give it everything she has. She can score, rebound, defend, she does everything really well.” Evans certainly wasn’t alone in holding off the Lady Owls as Latisha Belcher tallied 12 points and nine rebounds. Gwen Washington worked the inside for another 11 points, and TaRonda Wiles added 11. More important was their play on the other end of the floor. Defending the Memorial Center home floor like they were guarding Fort Knox over the first 10 minutes, the Lady Bucs scored the game’s 11 first points and held the Lady Owls to 1-of-17 shooting minutes to open up a 20-3 lead. It allowed the Lady Bucs (18-9, 16-3) to lead the entire game, unlike earlier this season at Kennesaw when they had to go to overtime to pull out a one-point win. “We were focused and ready to come out and play tonight,” Kemp said. “When we played them back in December, we didn’t feel like we played well. That was our focus to come out and take control early. The ladies were focused and ready to do that tonight.” The Lady Bucs still had some struggles. After holding a 41-31 lead at halftime, they hit just 27 percent from the field in the second half. They were able to get enough plays on the defensive end to keep at least a five-point lead until the end. “Offense goes and comes, but defense has to be a constant,” Kemp said. “That’s the one thing we try to instill in them that we have to play defense every night. We were getting stops when we needed stops and we got offensive put-backs as well.” The victory kept alive hopes of sharing an Atlantic Sun Conference title with Florida Gulf Coast, who defeated USC Upstate on Thursday, to finish with a 17-3 league record. “I just had it in my mind that we are going to win out and at least get a share of the A-Sun title,” Evans said. “We just had to play defense, good Lady Buc basketball.” Greteya Kelley led Kennesaw (15-13, 11-8) in scoring with 18 points. Montinique Nixon gave the Lady Owls their own double-double with 14 points and 16 rebounds, and Brittney Henderson added 12 points. The Lady Bucs host Mercer on Saturday to finish the regular season. Besides wanting a share of the A-Sun title, there is extra motivation as the Lady Bears handed the Bucs a 77-61 loss in early December. “They embarrassed us.” Evans said. More than the game itself, Kemp remembered the post-game antics. She promised a film clip of that will be part of the game preparation. “I’m going to show the team the celebration they had after that victory,” Kemp said. “You would have thought they would won the championship at that point. We’re going to be focused and ready to step on the floor and compete.”


Lady Bucs right where they want to be By Kelly Hodge Press Managing Sports Editor khodge@johnsoncitypress.com The East Tennessee State women’s basketball team is right where it wants to be as the days of February wind down. The Lady Bucs have won 10 of their last 12 games to secure the No. 1 seed for the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament next week. That gives the defending champs one less hurdle to clear on a possible path back to the NCAA tournament. “It’s worth a lot,” coach Karen Kemp said Wednesday. “It means we get a bye into the semis and have to win two games instead of three. That’s a big premium.” The Lady Bucs (17-9, 15-3) host Kennesaw State (15-12, 11-7) today at 4:45, then close the regular season Saturday against Mercer, a team that beat them by 16 in the conference opener way back on Dec. 5. Good as they’ve been lately, the Lady Bucs may still have to share the regular-season championship. Florida Gulf Coast wraps up its conference schedule tonight at Campbell, and the Lady Eagles are 16-3 heading into that contest. They aren’t eligible for postseason play as a former Division II program in transition. That would appear to leave ETSU as a heavy favorite in Nashville. Kemp admits this team, with no seniors on the roster, is different that the one that won 21 games and delivered the school’s first-ever NCAA bid a year ago. “The big difference is depth. It was better last season,” she said. “I’d still put our starting five up against pretty much anybody. We just have to be ready to go serious minutes with those five.” Juniors Siarre Evans, TaRonda Wiles and Latisha Belcher have carried the load well. Evans just surpassed Wiles as the A-Sun’s leading scorer (16.4 ppg.) with her career-high, 35-point explosion Monday night at South Carolina Upstate. She also grabbed 11 rebounds for her fifth straight double-double and 15th of the season. Her 10.3 boards per game also leads the league. “It was one of those nights,” said Evans. “Everybody was making shots. We had 12 3-pointers as a team (Evans had half of those), and that’s something we haven’t done as well this year.” The Griffin, Ga., native speaks softly, and sometimes reluctantly, away from the court. But her coach says she has taken a definite leadership role on the team. “Siarre is not the same person on the sidelines that she is on the court,” said Kemp. “She’s a leader, a competitor and a winner. She proved that the other night when she put us on her back. She’s just very, very consistent.” Wiles, meanwhile, is averaging 16.2 points and 5.7 rebounds, and Belcher is averaging 12.4 and 7.5 respectively. The team’s 1-5 start to the season is a distant memory. “The chemistry just had to gel,” said Evans. “I think we’ve been playing well and want to win out to get back to the NCAA tournament.”


Wiles helps Lady Bucs to 30-point rout By Trey Williams Press Sports Writer twilliams@johnsoncitypress.com TaRonda Wiles has become a differencemaker for East Tennessee State. Wiles’ 30-point performance provided the winning margin in the Lady Bucs’ 87-57 defeat of Campbell Thursday evening in Memorial Center. ETSU improved to 8-1 in the Atlantic Sun Conference and 10-7 overall. Wiles, a 5-foot-10 junior small forward from Danville, Va., was 13 of 23 from the field, made three of her six 3-point attempts and knocked down multiple 18-footers from each corner. She also made driving banks and mid-ranged pullups. Even a 10-foot baseline jumper that appeared to be launched from behind the backboard midway through the first half was halfway down before rattling out. Wiles was already the A-Sun’s reigning player of the week after a career-high 31 points in a victory against Belmont Thursday. “I’ve been trying to tell TaRonda since the day she stepped on this campus that she has the potential to be one of the best players to ever come through ETSU,” said coach Karen Kemp, whose Lady Bucs have won eight of their last nine. “She has a lot of confidence now and she’s just shooting the ball extremely well. She’s a fun player to watch when she has that confidence level as high as it is right now.” A new career high for Wiles appeared certain against Campbell when she reached 30 points on a transition basket with 7:50 remaining. But she came down hobbling with a cramp, headed to the bench and didn’t return. Spectating isn’t easy when the basket looks as big the Veteran Administration’s pond across the street from Memorial Center. “I tried to get (Kemp) to put me back in,” said Wiles, who scored in double figures for the ninth straight game while raising her average to 15.9. “My confidence is just getting up there.” Junior guard Siarre Evans had 20 points, six rebounds, four assists and two steals. Evans was efficient. She was 6 of 9 from the field, including 4 of 6 behind the arc, and made all four of her free throws. “The past couple of games I’ve taken what’s given to me,” Evans said. “I didn’t force my shot.” Ten Lady Bucs played double digit minutes, including sophomore forward Shannon White. “Shannon had eight points and 10 rebounds,” Wiles said. “That gives us confidence in the bench.” Latisha Belcher also had 10 rebounds, as well as seven points and three steals. Natasha Dixon had a game-high four steals in 11 minutes. ETSU finished with 18 steals, part of 28 Campbell turnovers. ETSU assisted 19 of 30 field goals and committed 13 turnovers. Ashley Williamson had 13 points and nine rebounds for Campbell (2-7, 9-9). Lauren Arthur had 12 points and four assists, and Lauren Yesh added eight points, eight rebounds and four assists.


Lady Bucs rally past Jacksonville By Jeff Birchfield Press Sports Writer jbirchfield@johnsoncitypress.com Down, but not out. East Tennessee State downed Jacksonville 86-77 in a rematch of last season’s Atlantic Sun Conference women’s basketball tournament final on Saturday afternoon at Memorial Center. It came despite a miserable first half, which the Lady Bucs (4-6, 2-1) fell behind 21-6 after 15 unanswered points by the Lady Dolphins (5-7, 1-2). “We definitely didn’t play 40 minutes today,” ETSU head coach Karen Kemp said. “But, this team realizes if they play up to their capabilities, we can do some good things. We were getting beat on offensive rebounds in the first half. We had an old-fashioned tent meeting at halftime to limit our turnovers and not allow those second and third opportunities.” There was a good reason for Kemp’s sermon. The first-half numbers were downright ugly for ETSU. The Lady Bucs gave up 22 points in the paint, while 14 turnovers had resulted in 19 Jacksonville points. Leading scorer Siarre Evans was scorless at that point, and had turned the ball over five times. It got so bad that Kemp pulled her entire starting lineup at one point in the first half. “The starting five didn’t come out focused and ready to play,” Kemp said. “I thought we got some great effort out of our bench.” Despite all the shortcomings and giving up 12 more shot attempts, ETSU trailed just 45-37 at the half. Led by Latisha Belcher and TaRonda Wiles, the Lady Bucs stormed back to outscore the Lady Dolphins 49-32 in the second half. Down 59-55 with 12 minutes left, the game turned when ETSU went on a 13-2 run over the next three minutes. The run culminated with a pair of free throws by Belcher at the 9:01 mark. Belcher had 16 second-half points and 19 overall to go along with seven rebounds. Wiles added 10 in the second half for a 16-point total. Wiles termed the first half as a lack of heart on the Lady Bucs’ part, while Belcher added the team came out of the locker room willing to do whatever it took to win. Tara Davis contributed 14 to the victory, while Gwen Washington also hit double figures for the Lady Bucs with 11. “We learned we can fight through adversity, making mistakes or whatever you want to call it,” Davis said. “We came out more focused and with a lot more intensity in the second half.” Noticeably absent from the scoring leaders was Evans, who came into the contest with three straight double-doubles. She was held to just six points on 3-of-10 shooting, but contributed heavily in the second half, ending with a team-best 11 rebounds. “Coach (DeShawne) Blocker pulled her to side and told her the shot just wasn’t working,” Kemp said. “She told her, ‘Let’s go do something else. Let’s go rebound.’ She went out and stepped up and got double-digit rebounds. “It made the win more satisfying since we had some other players step up for us. Natalie Pickwell had a couple of big shots in the first half, and TaRonda had a big offensive night. When we can have some other people besides Siarre step up, it makes us a better basketball team.” DaVina Hamilton led the Lady Dolphins in scoring with 19 points. Virginia Gregoire and Courtney Jackson each netted 11 for Jacksonville, while Crystal Grable and Desarae Johsnon added 10 apiece. Lady Dolphins head coach Jill Dunn believed the game was lost on the boards in the second half, where the Lady Bucs held a 30-13 rebounding advantage. “They were hitting the boards and we quit boxing out,” Dunn said. “That was the biggest difference in the game. We did a good job on Evans, but they have a great team. The rest of their team stepped up and picked up the slack.” The Lady Bucs play North Florida on Monday at 4:45 p.m. as part of a double-header with the men’s team.


Kemp hopes Lady Bucs can regroup By Kelly Hodge Press Managing Sports Editor khodge@johnsoncitypress.com Athletes around the East Tennessee State campus have been trying to clear their heads this week and focus more on finals than team results. The women’s basketball players may want to forget their last outing entirely. The Lady Bucs were throttled 77-61 in their Atlantic Sun Conference opener last Friday night against Mercer, a team picked to finish eighth in the standings. ETSU is favored to repeat as champion but certainly didn’t play the part in Macon, Ga. “We definitely didn’t play well at all,” coach Karen Kemp said Wednesday. “I thought we were better against Vanderbilt and Georgia than we were against Mercer. We’ve tried to regroup and get some of that passion back. “I’ve said it many times: we’ve got a lot of players with a lot of experience, but not having a senior with a sense of urgency is hurting us. Nobody is really stepping up and accepting that role.” The Mercer loss, combined with a tough non-conference schedule early, leaves the Lady Bucs with a 1-5 record. And the road doesn’t get much easier. Next up is a game Friday night at Kentucky, then games at Kennesaw State and Wake Forest before the year is out. The Lady Bucs, who tied a school record with 21 wins last season, don’t play again at home until Jacksonville visits on Jan. 3. “With this group, they see Kentucky, they see Vandy, they see Georgia, they get up for those games,” said Kemp. “We have to get them to understand they gotta get up for the games that count – the conference games.” Kentucky (5-3) is coming off a 74-35 rout of Furman, but Kemp doesn’t expect the Wildcats to be better than the other two Southeastern Conference teams she’s already seen. “They’re SEC, so they’re good,” she said, “but I think Georgia and Vandy both are a little better. Kentucky doesn’t have that 6-5 kid inside. They’re very athletic and shoot the ball pretty good.” Shooting has been a sore spot so far for the Lady Bucs. They’re connecting on 36 of their field-goal attempts (just 18 percent from 3-point range), while opponents are shooting 44 percent.


Lady Bucs throw scare into Vandy By Joe Avento Press Sports Writer javento@johnsoncitypress.com A record crowd and a nationally-ranked opponent didn’t exactly bring out the best in the East Tennessee State women’s basketball team. But the Lady Bucs gave No. 12 Vanderbilt more than it expected on Friday night. Merideth Marsh and Christina Wirth each scored 16 points as the Commodores escaped with a 66-55 victory at Memorial Center. “We just wanted to prove we could come out and compete with anybody in the nation, whether they were ranked or not,” said ETSU’s Siarre Evans, who singlehandedly kept her team in the game with 21 points and 11 rebounds. “We proved that we could play with an SEC team.” With an announced crowd of 3,459 — about 2,200 more than had ever attended an ETSU women’s game — on hand, the Lady Bucs were their own worst enemies. ETSU (0-3) committed 27 turnovers, yet still trailed by only three points with 101⁄2 minutes to play “Of those 27 turnovers, the majority were unforced,” ETSU coach Karen Kemp said. “Those were the ones that were very, very frustrating. We just kind of gave them the ball. We’ve just got to know the same passes we make against other opponents, we can’t make against an SEC basketball team.” Vanderbilt (4-0) used a 22-4 run to end the first half and take a 36-23 lead at intermission. The Commodores stretched their advantage to 16 to start the second half, and a blowout appeared imminent. “We could have folded, but we didn’t,” Kemp said. “We fought for the entire game.” ETSU began to scratch back into the game, using a variety of defenses to force 23 Vanderbilt turnovers. A 9-2 run got the Lady Bucs within striking range, and a 6-0 stretch left them behind 48-45 with 10:24 left. A couple of turnovers and two long 3-point baskets from Marsh, who made five from long range, helped the Commodores stay ahead. The outside shooting was necessitated by the fact that Vanderbilt’s two post players, Wirth and Hannah Tuomi, were on the bench with foul trouble, forcing a four-guard lineup the team had not used before. Wirth, the Commodores’ leading scorer, played only nine minutes in the second half after pickcing up her fourth foul at the 16:03 mark. She eventually fouled out in the closing moments. “I think the best thing they did defensively was they just kept switching it up,” Vanderbilt coach Melanie Balcomb said. “That got us out of our rhythm. They’re extremely physical. It also hurts when our best two players are on the bench.” ETSU was clinging to life late when two baskets were waved off because of offensive-foul calls, at which the record crowd showed its displeasure. Evans, who had eight of the Lady Bucs’ turnovers, went 8 for 14 from the field; the rest of the team combined to go 11 for 37. Latisha Belcher had 10 points for ETSU before fouling out. Tuomi added 13 points for Vanderbilt, while Chanel Chisholm had 12. Vanderbilt’s Jennifer Risper missed all six of her shots, but had nine rebounds and six steals. The Lady Bucs return to action Wednesday when they play host to Appalachian State. Their ambitious pre-conference schedule includes upcoming games at Georgia, Kentucky and Wake Forest. “Our expectations are always high,” Kemp said. “We feel like we can play with most people in the country. That’s why I scheduled like I have this year. I think this team is ready to play at this level.”
