Also helping out on the perimeter will be two freshmen, Tara Lee and Amy Albert. Lee, a guard from Murfreesboro will give immediate help at the point position. Albert, our young gun from Arkansas, will also help at the guard position and will be another three-point threat. Helping Burlew at the post will be juniors Laura DeFew and Marquetta Hunt. DeFew is a real battler inside and will be called upon to bolster the post area.
Hunt is a very strong and physical player.
She will also be an important contributor if Union is to compete for a national title. The inside game will also need the contribution of two players who joined the team last season. LeeAnn Bell, a junior transfer from the University of Memphis, is hungry and ready to play. Dion Thornton, a medical red-shirt last year, is also ready for action as well. Blackstock states that Thornton may be the biggest, most athletic player ever to attend Union.
