Lady Jackets Sign Former Senior High Star (May 20, 2003)

BILLINGS, MT – Former Senior High School standout Jenny (Doely) Auer has signed a national letter of intent to play basketball at MSU Billings next year.  Auer, a 5-foot-7 guard who graduated from Senior HS in 2001, will transfer from Montana State-Bozeman after running track for the Bobcats the last two years.""

In the Bobcats’ 2002 indoor season, Auer placed second in the high jump at the Big Sky Conference meet and was named the team’s most outstanding field performer.   She joined the MSU track team after capturing five state titles in her high school career. 

Auer led the Broncs basketball team in 3-point percentage as a junior and free throw percentage as a senior.  In 1998, Auer set a Senior HS school record with a 72.0 percent free throw percentage.  She also shot 35.6 percent from 3-point range, which was the fourth-best mark in school history at the time.  As a senior in 2000, Auer scored 323 points, second-best on the Broncs’ all-time single season scoring list.  She averaged 14.2 points per game that season en route to first team all-conference and first team all-state honors.

Auer won the Big Sky State Games “Character Counts” scholarship as a junior in 2000.  As a senior, she was named the Midland Roundtable Female Athlete of the Year after recovering from ACL surgery to lead the Broncs to a second place finish at the State AA track meet.  She graduated as the valedictorian at Senior HS.

“I chose to transfer to MSU Billings for the academic and athletic opportunities the college has to offer,” said Auer, who is majoring in business.  “The coaches and the players are great, and I really look forward to the coming seasons of basketball.  My family lives in the Billings area and it will be nice to be close to them.”  Auer is originally from Rapelje, Montana, where her parents still live.
