BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Six members of the Ole Miss women's basketball team were among 49 student-athletes named to the 2000 SEC Women's Basketball Academic Honor Roll released Tuesday by SEC Commissioner Roy Kramer.
"We are extremely pleased to have six players make the SEC Honor Roll for the second year in a row," head coach Ron Aldy said. "Academics has been a high priority since we came here. These fine young ladies have worked very hard on and off the court."
Senior Tanya Bolden has a 3.08 grade point average in Exercise Science and will graduate in May. Joining her on the list, were juniors Chandra Dorsey (3.07 - Criminal Justice), Becky Myatt (3.40 - Exercise Science) and Stephanie Murphy (3.27 - Exercise Science) and sophomores Takela Corbitt (3.40 - Biomedical Science) and TaShondrea Moton (3.85 - undecided).
