North Georgia to open season at powerhouse Delta State
DAHLONEGA, GA -
North Georgia College & State University head coach Buffie
Burson has signed eight players for the 2008-09 season. The Lady
Saints are coming off a season that saw them ranked as high as #20
in the nation and #1 in a pair of NCAA South Atlantic Regional
Polls.
"I feel very fortunate to bring in eight very
talented players to the Lady Saint family, head coach Buffie Burson
said. "Each player brings a winning attitude and competitive spirit
to an already seasoned veteran group of players. We added four post

step in and contribute immediately."
