Megan Moody signs with Knox
15/05/2006
In a major coup, the Knox Ford Raiders are pleased to announce the signing of recent American college graduate, Megan Moody.
A 120-game veteran with Tulsa Golden Hurricanes, Moody arrived back in Australia late last week and will join the Raiders on a road trip to Tasmania this weekend.
Having recently trained as a free agent with the Houston Comets in the WNBA, the 184-cm tall Moody has collated an impressive list of honours and stats at Tulsa.
Moody completed her career this past season as the school's sixth all-time leading scorer with 1122 points. She ranks second on the school's career list for three-pointers (166) and ninth for rebounds with 459. Moody also owns the school mark for career games played with 120.
During her senior season, she started all 32 games and averaged 13.0 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, and was named to the Conference USA second team.
Moody ranked second on the team in scoring, rebounding, blocked shots and three-pointers made. She reached double figures in 22 games and notched one double-double.
Moody blossomed in NCAA Tournament play, averaging 21.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.0 three-pointers in two games.
She helped Tulsa register a 26-6 overall record, a Conference USA regular season and tournament championship, and led the Golden Hurricanes to a 71-61 upset victory over fifth-seeded North Carolina State in the first round of the 2006 NCAA Tournament with 20 points and eight rebounds.
Knox Basketball chairman Bill Fenton welcomed Moody back to the Knox Ford Raiders and has no doubts she will fit in straight away.
