Lady Bison Add Transfers

May 9, 2008

Oklahoma Baptist University has added six junior college transfers to the women's basketball team for next year, including two First-Team All-Conference selections from Texas.

Afeisha ‘FeFe' Noel is a 6-3 All-Conference post player from Weatherford College in Texas. A native of Trinidad and Tobago, Noel averaged 12 points and 10 rebounds last season and was recruited by the likes of Kentucky, Maryland and Indiana. A dominant presence in the post, Noel also has a nice passing touch, having averaged 2.5 assists last season. She is overcoming a leg injury and should be ready for the start of the season.

Ashley Harrell, also coming in from Weatherford College, is a 5-11 guard who averaged 12 points and was named to the All-Conference USA Freshman team at Southern Miss before moving on to Weatherford. Harrell was rated the 10th-best guard in the country out of high school by Adidas All-Star Girls Report.

Caribbean Luellen transfers to OBU from Grayson County College. A 5-11 wing from Houston, Luellen was a two-time All-Conference selection and averaged 13 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.

Panola teammates Jasmine Brown, Vedrana Milakovic and Lauren Rust are also headed to OBU.

Brown, an Academic All-Conference pick, averaged 12 points and shot 41.6 percent from three-point range. She is a 5-6 guard from Jersey Village, Texas.

Milakovic, a 5-10 forward from Sweden, averaged 9.2 points and 6.5 rebounds. Rust is a 5-8 guard from Waxahachie, Texas, who led her team to a state championship in high school. Rust was also an Academic All-Conference honoree.

Those recent additions join Natasha Hogg, who committed to OBU during the season. She averaged 18 points and 12 rebounds at Weatherford College.
