FERRUM STARS ALL-CONFERENCE

Ferrum College's men's and women's basketball programs racked up awards Wednesday when the Dixie Conference released its all-conference teams.

Freshman shooting guard Michael Hunter, from Alleghany High School, earned first-team honors and also was named the league's rookie of the year. Point guard Marcus Toney (Magna Vista) took second-team honors.

It got better with the women. The Panthers (15-9) had the league's player of the year, Kia Williams, and Donna Doonan was voted coach of the year. Williams averaged 21.3 points and 11.0 rebounds per game.

Williams and Aimee Barker (Bassett) made first team all-conference and Marlo Ferguson-Jamison (Magna Vista) made second team. Northside graduate Shannon Yopp represented Averett on the first team. (Complete teams in Scoreboard. B2)
