Coach Davis on Whitehurst:“Carrie is a ‘pure’ shooter. She has worked extrememly hard
at shooting off the dribble and getting the ball to the basket.Depending upon how fast she adjusts to the speed of thecollegiate game, Carrie could have an immediate impact uponour team’s success.”
Why Clemson?“I came to Clemson for a lot of reasons. First of all, Clemson
is in the South, and it’s close to home. My brother goes toschool here, so that was another reason. Also, I love this team,the coaches and the Atlantic Coast Conference. I am excitedabout being a part of this team and this university.”
