FULTON, MS – Itawamba Community College sophomore guard Jeronia Allen signed a National Letter of Intent to continue her basketball career at Prairie View A&M University.
"She brings positive energy to the floor every day," said Lady Indians' head coach Nanci Gray. "She can score from the outside, but can drive the lane as well and Prairie View is getting a great guard."
Allen averaged 11.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.7 assist per game last season and earned a spot on the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior College (MACJC) North All-Star roster.
The 5'9" guard helped lead the Lady Indians to the MACJC North Division title, and her 16 point performance in the championship game at the regionals helped capture the NJCAA Region 23 crown to reach the NJCAA National Tournament.
"She has grown so much during her two years here," said Gray. "I expect greatness from her as she continues to pursue excellence on and off the court."
Allen will join Lady Indian teammate Lanikki McMillian (Pontotoc) in the Lady Panther program that finished 14-18 overall and 10-8 in their conference and fought their way to the semi-finals of the SWAC conference tournament.
