"I expect Ebonie to play at an all-conference level this season, said ASU head coach Brian Boyer. I can't imagine that there is a tougher competitor or a harder worker in the league. I am so proud of how far Ebonie has come during her career, and I look forward to her continued improvement this season." Jefferson scored in double figures in 14 of ASU s last 17 games a year ago, had 19 double-figure games on the season and led ASU in scoring with an 11.8 points-per-game average, a figure that climbed to 13.0 pointsper-game in Sun Belt Conference play.

The Red Wolves limited the Salukis to just three offensive rebounds and no second-chance points in the first 20 minutes while forcing 14 turnovers. I m certainly pleased with the win and could not be happier with our play in the first half, said ASU head coach Brian Boyer, who notched his 100th career Convocation Center victory. Our movement was great offensively. All year long we have struggled some with our shot selection, and in the first half I thought our shot selection was great. Defensively, we did a good job of forcing turnovers and we gave up just three offensive rebounds in the first half, which was a point of emphasis. NeNe Hurst filled up the stat line, Boyer added. I thought her shot selection was great and she kept everyone involved. I thought this was one of her better performances. Southern Illinois went on a 23-9 run out of the locker room to cut the Red Wolves lead to with 11:27 to play, but ASU freshman Jasmine Taylor came off the bench to knock down a free throw and a baseline jumper 13 seconds later to push the A-State lead to four at A layup from freshman guard Quinishia Mc- Dowell gave the Red Wolves a advantage with 10:01 remaining, and Southern Illinois did not get closer than five in the remainder of the game.

Over 80 international students were on hand as the team members and coaching staff introduced themselves and introduced the students to Red Wolves women s basketball. The students joined the team on the court for drills and fundamental instruction, then enjoyed a pizza party to wrap up the night s activities. This is a semester-long project that got underway with the clinic last night, said ASU head coach Brian Boyer. We wanted to let our international students know how much we appreciate them and to encourage them to be more involved with all of the activities on campus. We also wanted to increase their awareness of athletics here at Arkansas State, introduce them to the Convocation Center and allow them to get to know our team. Arkansas State s players will partner with an international student throughout the semester, meeting with the student for at least an hour each week to help them become familiar with Arkansas State and ease their transition to life in the United States. The women s basketball team will salute ASU s international students at the Nov. 18 home opener against Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Next week s game has been designated as International Students Night at the Convocation Center. RED WOLVES ADD MORRILL: JONESBORO, Ark. (11/11/09) Arkansas State head coach Brian Boyer announced Wednesday that Scott City, Mo. standout Jane Morrill has signed a National Letter of Intent to continue her basketball career at Arkansas State University. A 6 1 forward, Morrill is on pace to top the 1,000-point mark in her career at Notre Dame High School in Cape Girardeau, Mo. and averages 15.7 points and nine rebounds per game. She is a two-time All-Conference, All-District and All-Regional selection, earning conference MVP honors following her sophomore year with the Bulldogs. She has blocked 151 shots over the past two seasons at Notre Dame and is expected to finish her career as the school s all-time leader. From day one, Jane was our number one recruit, and we were so excited when she committed to us, said Boyer. She is going to be an impact front-line player at this level. She is not only a very good scorer, but she is a very versatile post player. She understands the game and passes it very well for a player her size. In addition to her skills on the basketball court, Morrill is a two-time All-State softball player at Notre Dame, also earning All- Conference, All-District and All-Regional honors along the way. She is the daughter of Alan and Carla Morrill. Jane is the total package, said Notre Dame head coach Renee Peters. She has size, shooting ability, passing ability, shot blocking ability and rebounding ability. She knows the game so well. She can see the game set up and know how to thread the needle with passes. She is also an excellent perimeter shooter and ball handler. You are not going to see many girls her size take the ball behind their back when they take someone one-on-one. But she isn t someone who worries about cushioning stats and making herself look better; she wants to win and however that falls in place is fine with her. QEDAN INKS WITH ASU: JONESBORO, Ark. (11/11/09) Arkansas State head coach Brian Boyer announced Wednesday that Hanna Qedan, a 5 11 guard from Farmington, Ark., has signed a National Letter of Intent to join the Red Wolves lineup for the season. Hanna can really shoot the ball, said Boyer. To go along with that, she has very good size for a guard, so she is able to get a shot off on a lot of people. But the thing that really stands out about her is her explosiveness. She handles the ball just as well left or right, so she is more than just a shooter, she is a very good all-around guard. The Farmington High School standout averages 19.4 points per game, 11.0 rebounds per game and four blocks per game. She has 19 double-doubles so far in her career and owns a 32-point career-high game. She was named All-Conference and an AAO Top 25 Camp nominee. She was selected to the All-Northwest Arkansas team, the All- County team, the KURM Dream Team and was a Top 10 All-American Camp participant. Hanna is a tenacious player on both ends of the floor, said Farmington head coach Brad Johnson. She is a big guard who has a great face-up game. She can shoot it from outside, but probably her biggest asset is her explosiveness to the basket. She gets to the basket quickly with either hand and she is big enough and physical enough that she can take it down low and post up. She is a very versatile player and knowing the offensive sets that Coach Boyer runs at ASU, she is tailor-made for them offensively. She is the daughter of Bashar and Jeri Qedan. MADDOX SIGNS WITH ASU: JONESBORO, Ark. (11/11/09) Arkansas State head coach Brian Boyer announced Wednesday that Millington (Tenn.) Central guard/forward Olivia Maddox has signed a National Letter of Intent to continue her basketball career at ASU. Maddox, 5 11, was a Class 3-A All-State Tournament selection following her sophomore year in which she averaged 8.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game and helped lead Millington to a state runner-up finish. She was also named Memphis Best of Preps and earned All-District honors following the season. Olivia has been a part of one of the most successful programs in the Memphis area, said Boyer. In addition to being on a very successful team, they are very well balanced in terms of scoring. She is a great athlete who really fits our system well and is someone that our fans will enjoy watching over the next four years. Olivia is very athletic, very smooth to the basket and is a great offensive rebounder. It is unfortunate that she didn t get to play last year due to a knee injury, but her best basketball is ahead of her and we have all the confidence that she is going to be a great player for us. I think Arkansas State is getting a young lady with a lot of athleticism who has a lot of upside to her game, said Millington head coach Stan Gatlin. She has great rebounding ability, jumping ability and great defensive intensity. She has the ability to play different positions from the wing to the post and will be a great addition to Arkansas State s team. Maddox is the daughter of Rosalind Brown ASU Women s Basketball 6

7 Head Coach Brian Boyer Through 10 seasons as head coach at Arkansas State University, Brian Boyer s name has become synonymous with success and the women s basketball program. Entering his 11th season as head coach at ASU, Boyer has climbed to second place on the ASU career win chart with a record of Under Boyer s guidance, Arkansas State has reached the Women s National Invitation Tournament four times, including three of the past six seasons. He led the Red Wolves to the Sun Belt East Division Championship, the program has produced 17 All- Sun Belt Conference players with Boyer at the helm and Boyer was named Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year following the , and seasons. His 89 career Sun Belt Conference victories heading into the season rank him fourth all-time in career conference wins. Boyer directed the Red Wolves to yet another winning season as he wrapped up his first decade as the program s head coach in The Red Wolves finished the season at 16-14, posting victories over post-season participants Creighton and Arkansas-Little Rock along the way. Although the season was expected by many to be a rebuilding year, Boyer put forth what was arguably one of his finest coaching performances, molding a group of unheralded players into a team that produced yet another 20-win season at Arkansas State. Faced with the task of replacing three 1,000- point scorers, including the program s all time leading shot blocker and rebounder, along with the all-time assists leader, Boyer directed Arkansas State to a record. ASU won a record 13 conference games during the season, and reached the semifinals of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament for the 13th time in 16 tries. The Red Wolves finished the season with the distinction of being the only Division I program in the country with a winning record that did not have a single player who averaged double figure scoring. Arkansas State posted victories over Brigham Young and Alabama early in the season, earning the win over the Crimson Tide on the road in Tuscaloosa. The Red Wolves finished 2007 with a 6-7 record, but went on a tear in the new year, closing out the season with a 14-5 finish and a run to the semifinals of the SBC Tournament for the fourth consecutive season. Like always, the team was especially tough at home, posting a 13-2 record at the ASU Convocation Center that included a 9-0 record against Sun Belt Conference opponents. In the season the Red Wolves finished 21-13, advanced to the second round of the WNIT before falling to eventual tournament runner-up Wisconsin, and continued to build on their already-impressive home record with a 14-2 mark at the ASU Convocation Center. The Red Wolves posted home victories over NCAA Tournament participants Oklahoma State and Louisiana-Lafayette, Southeastern Conference member Alabama and WNIT participants South Dakota State and Murray State. In all, 14 of the Red Wolves 34 games during the season were against teams that played in the NCAA or WNIT tournaments. The Red Wolves also reached the 10-victory milestone quicker than any other team in ASU history, picking up their 10th win of the season Jan. 3, 2007, and their 21-win total equaled the highest in Boyer s eight seasons. Under Boyer s guidance, several individual records fell during the season as well. Seniors Adrianne Davie and Rudy Sims rewrote the Red Wolves record books, with Davie shattering the career blocked shots record with 132 and the career rebounding record with 1,147. Sims set a new mark in career assists with 548 and became the first ASU player in over a decade to record a triple-double when she scored 14 points, grabbed 11 rebounds and handed out 10 assists in a overtime victory at Louisiana-Lafayette. Davie was named All-Sun Belt Conference for the fourth straight season, while Sims earned the honor for the third straight year. Senior Ali Carter became the 16th member of the career 1,000-point club. During the season, the Red Wolves posted a overall record against a schedule that included nine NCAA Tournament teams, and three that participated in the WNIT. A-State advanced to the semifinals of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, and Davie earned first-team All-Sun Belt Conference honors for the third straight season. Davie also joined the ASU 1,000-point club, along with Sims and senior Amber Abraham. In the season, ASU put together a program-best 10- game Sun Belt Conference winning streak, part of an 11-game win streak that was the fourth longest in Red Wolves history. The Red Wolves finished the season overall and in second place in the Sun Belt East Division at 11-3, giving Boyer his first 20-win season as head coach. Arkansas State advanced to the quarterfinals of the WNIT Tournament, defeating SEC powers Mississippi State and Arkansas along the way. The second round victory over Arkansas was played in front of a Convocation Center record crowd of 10, 892. The team s success earned Boyer his second straight Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year Award. Boyer joined former Red Wolves coach Jerry Ann Winters as the only two ASU women s basketball coaches to win back-to-back coach of the year honors. Davie, Sims and Carter all earned All-Sun Belt honors following the season, marking the first time in Red Wolves history that three players earned all-conference honors in a single season. The season culminated with the program s first-ever regular season conference championship and a return to the WNIT. The Red Wolves fin ASU Women s Basketball 7
