Florida Atlantic University women's basketball Head Coach Chancellor Dugan has announced the signing of two student-athletes to National Letters of Intent.
The Owls signed two guards from the state of Florida. The two recruits are Class 6A All-State performer Joanna Harden (Pompano Beach/Ely High School) and 2006 state champion guard Kalyn Dinkins (Orlando/Hightower High School) The incoming class is expected to attend FAU for the Fall 2009 semester and play for the Owls in 2009-10.
"We are adding quality student-athletes to our team," said Dugan. "Both Kalyn and Joanna had tremendous success in high school and are proven winners. I'm looking forward to them being a part of our family for four years, and winning Sun Belt Championships with them."
Harden is a four-year letter winner with a career record of 77-17 in her first three years at Ely High School in Pompano Beach, leading them to a state final four appearance and two undefeated district championships. She averaged 23.5 points, eight rebounds, six assists and four steals per game last season while running the point guard position. In her first game this season she scored 16 points, nine rebounds and had 15 steals along with five blocks. She was named first-team All-Broward County and was listed in the South Florida Sun-Sentinel "Fab Five" team.
Dinkins averaged 15 points, eight rebounds and four steals per game last season. She also shot the ball well, knocking down 43 percent of her three-pointers and was an 89 percent free-throw shooter.
