Stanhope Inks with Yellowjackets in Two Sports
BILLINGS, Mont. – Montana State Billings
women’s basketball and women’s golf coach Kevin Woodin announced
Thursday that Kalli Stanhope will play women’s basketball and
golf for the Yellowjackets beginning this fall.
“I am very excited to have Kalli as a
Yellowjacket,” Woodin said. “She is a tremendously skilled basketball player and has
the ability to play both the point and shooting guard positions. She comes from a great high school program and she is
very fundamentally sound. In addition, she is a great golfer and will make an
immediate impact on our team.”
Stanhope, a native of Glendive, Mont., is a
three-time first team all-state Class A basketball player who
helped her team to the Eastern A divisional championship and a
runner-up finish at the 2008 State A Girl’s basketball
tournament. During
her senior year, she averaged 15.2 points, three assists and two
steals per game. Stanhope shot 42 percent from beyond the arc and 81 percent from
the charity stripe.
In addition to her talent on the court,
Stanhope also excels on the golf course as well. She is a two-time individual Eastern A medalist in golf
and was the State A medalist this season. In her 10 tournaments this season, she posted seven
firsts and had an 18-hole scoring average of 81.
