LAMPARTY COMMITS TO SHAWNEE STATE

/in /by

CANFIELD OH- For three years South Range Basketball fans have been watching Izzy Lamparty shine on the court. Turns out, college coaches have been keeping an eye on her too. Particularly coach Jeff Nickel from Shawnee State. They recruited a couple of seniors during Izzy’s freshman year, and have been keeping a watch of her ever since. Lamparty has verbally committed to continue her academic and athletic career at Shawnee State.

In her junior season, Izzy averaged 16.5 points per game. She nearly averaged a double double tallying 9.3 rebounds a game as well. Izzy scored her 1,000th career point on January 30th against Niles.

Anthony Hartwig caught up with Izzy to hear her thoughts on committing, and her goals for her senior season.
