Sports rewind is a look back at recent results for Roane State athletics.
Jill Herman signed to play for the University of the Cumberlands. Herman, a 6-0 guard from Powell High School, is averaging 16.7 points, 4.8 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game for the Raiderettes. A dean’s list student, Herman was named All-Academic by the Tennessee Community College Athletic Association (TCCAA).
“She’s an all-around student-athlete who excels academically and on the court,” University of the Cumberlands head coach Melissa Irvin said. “She’s our type of player: smart, handles the ball well and is a tremendous scorer.”
University of the Cumberlands, located in Williamsburg, Ky., is one of the top-ranked teams in NAIA Division I.
“I love how disciplined they are,” Herman said. “Whenever things get rough, they stick to their game plan, and I like that. I’m ready to try and get a national championship ring.”
