Newlee adds final piece
to women's hoops roster
MOSCOW - Idaho women's basketball coach Jon Newlee finalized his roster for the 2013-14 season, adding Agueda Fernanda, a 6-foot freshman guard.
Fernanda averaged 21 points and 6.3 rebounds per game in high school, and was the No. 2 ranked player on the Baleric Islands.
"She certainly brings us added depth," Newlee said. "I always love adding a shooter with her length. We were top 10 in the country in 3-pointers made last season, so adding another really good 3-point shooter can just make us that much more dangerous. She's just one more weapon in the backcourt for us."
The Vandals shattered the program record and ranked 10th in Division I with 275 3-pointers made and an average of 8.1 made per game in 2012-13.
Fernanda joins joins freshmen Brooke Reilly (Spokane), Karlee Wilson (Lewiston) and Nejra Solo (Bosnia) in the incoming class this fall.
