UAM women’s basketball coach Tanya Ray has announced the signing of Logan Hammonds to a National Letter of Intent to play for the Blossoms next season.
The Arlington, Tennessee native led the Arlington High School Tigers to a District Championship last season after posting a perfect 14-0 record in district play. Playing for Coach David Offerle, Logan averaged 13.5 points per game last year, shooting 44.1-percent from the floor and 36.7-percent from three. Logan led her district in made three pointers as a junior. She averaged 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game and shot 71.4-percent from the free throw line. For her efforts, Logan was named an honorable mention on the All-District team.
Logan also played AAU ball for the Memphis Lady Bobcats Select team under Coach Curtis Jones.
Coach Ray is excited to welcome Logan to UAM. “Logan is a versatile player and will remind our fans a lot of Taylor Clark. At 6’0 she has the ability to score on the block as well as take her game to the perimeter where she can flat out shoot the ball. We are thrilled to get a player with her offensive skill set. The one thing that’s great about Logan, as well as Jordan Goforth whom we signed yesterday, is that both of these young ladies come from very successful high school programs and both of them have been a key to their team’s success. We are excited to have them bring their winning attitudes to UAM.”
Logan is the daughter of Amy and Brent Hammonds of Arlington.
