PANTHERS LOOK TO CONTINUE FAST START

Georgia State will be looking to continue its successful start to the season as the Panthers will try for a seventh win in the ninth game of the young year. The Panthers also look to keep their perfect 5-0 home record intact as they play host to the Western Carolina Catamounts (3-6) from the Southern Conference. WCU was No. 47 in the NCAA in fewest points allowed (53.9) in Monday’s NCAA stats. The up-tempo, high-scoring Panthers have averaged 68 points on the season.

If one wants to know primarily why GSU is winning, just look at the national NCAA rankings of the 345 Division I teams on Monday and one will see the impact the Panthers’ aggressiveness is having: • No. 7 in the NCAA in 3-point field goal defense (.212) • No. 20 in the NCAA in all field goal defense (.327) • No. 29 in the NCAA in blocked shots per game (5.5) • No. 52 in the NCAA in rebound margin (+7.1) • No. 104 in the NCAA in steals per game (10.4)) The Panthers are shooting offensively at a 42.5 percent rate, No. 53 in the NCAA, while scoring the 68 points a game to sit No. 82 in the NCAA.

Georgia State Women’s Basketball Notes

COACH SHARON BALDWIN-TENER Sharon Baldwin-Tener, named GSU’s head coach in April of 2010, has known how to win as both a collegiate player and collegiate coach. Now in her third season at GSU, the recruiting has shown some pieces are in place for a solid future. She picked up her 200th career win as a head coach on Dec. 29, 2010 vs. Mississippi Valley State (91-65) and guided GSU to the 500th all-time win in school history on Jan. 9, 2011 in a win over Hofstra (84-70) In eight years, she turned the East Carolina women’s basket-ball program around, winning 126 games, while earning post-season bids to the NCAA and WNIT tournaments. The Lady Pirates of ECU won the C-USA Tournament in 2007. Atlanta is a homecoming for Baldwin-Tener as she played her prep ball in Smyrna and her college ball at both Kennesaw State and the University of Georgia. She was an assistant coach at Georgia and a head coach at Life University in Marietta Those eight years at ECU followed her 2001-02 season as the Atlantic Sun Conference Coach of the Year honor in her only season at Mercer University in Macon. She first gained notice as the NAIA National Coach of the Year at Life University, where she began that program with a final No. 7 ranking in its first year and produced a team ranked No. 1 in the national polls in her second season (2001). Her assistant coaching career was highlighted by being named the Naismith National Assistant Coach of the Year (1997) while she was in her seventh and final year at the University of Georgia under head coach Andy Landers. Baldwin-Tener enjoyed a successful playing career at both the high school and collegiate levels. At Wills High School (merged with Campbell High) in Smyrna, Ga., she averaged 21 points per contest as a senior and was named the 1985 Georgia Class 4A State Player-of-the-Year. Baldwin-Tener earned a bachelor’s degree from Georgia in 1991 and completed her master’s of education in 1997, also at Georgia. She and her husband, Matt, have two children: Luke (8, Feb. 4, 2004) and Samantha (7, Oct. 28, 2005).

In the two road losses at Florida and Belmont, GSU trailed at the half by 12 at UF 11 at Belmont.

BALANCE HAS BEEN AN ASSET

PAULK’S SWAT MARKS Senior center Cody Paulk is working her way toward the top of the GSU all-time list for blocked shots. With 155 she needs 11 to tie the school mark that has stood for 16 years. With 7 blocks, she moves into the Top 10 in CAA all-time history. She is the only GSU player to have two 50-plus block seasons and will be looking for make that three in a row as well. The Alabama native will be counted on to pick up where she left off down the stretch last season when she averaged 12.7 points per game and 5.8 rebounds over the final nine games of the season. Paulk had personal-best scoring games of 23 and 21 points, shooting better than 50% in six of those nine games. She is a Capital One CoSIDA Acaemica All-District honoree as a chemistry major and math minor.

LONG FROM LONG RANGE Junior Kendra Long has a great name for being an outstanding three-point shooter. In her first two years at GSU, she has become the only player in school history with two 50 or more three-point baskets made seasons. Her 120 made has already moved her into fourth place on the school’s all-time list. The Atlanta native needs 34 more to tie the existing school career mark set just five years ago. Long has made five three-point shots in a game four times and is obviously a marked target for opposing defenses. She has 29 double-figure scoring games, including five games this season.

DIVISION-1 TRANSFERS ADDED

GSU has added a pair of Division I transfers who are practicing with the team this season to play next season. Both have all-conference potential and are major additions.

KYRA CROSBY was a starter last year at Alabama after having been the NJCAA Player of the Year at Gulf Coast Community College. Crosby started 15 games last year in the SEC at Alabama, averaging 9.1 points and 4.3 rebounds.

Georgia State Women’s Basketball Notes

Game 3: Nov. 14, 2012, 7 p.m.

GEORGIA STATE 79, JACKSONVILLE STATE 50GSU Sports Arena • Atlanta, Ga. Georgia State’s formula for getting a 79-50 win over Jackson-ville State was the same as it had been last week in getting a season opening road win: start fast and strike quickly. Ignited by a 13-2 burst to start the game in the first five and a half minutes, GSU built that to 20-5 at 13:37 and up to 30-10 at 9:02 and the path to victory was established. That was similar to the 17-3 start last week in the win at UCF. Tonight, GSU used its aggressive defense to force 25 JSU turnovers, made 14 steals, held JSU to 26.9 percent shooting and blocked five shots. Georgia State (2-1) had three players in double figures, led by sophomore guard Kayla Nolan’s 14 points. Freshman guard Ashlee Cole added 11 points and junior guard Kendra Long netted 10 more. On defense, sophomore Maryam Dogo pulled down 11 rebounds to go with eight points, while senior center Cody Paulk hauled down 10 rebounds. The Panthers’ five-player bench provided 38 points and 21 rebounds. JSU (0-2) got an impressive 15 points and 19 rebounds from forward Briana Morrow, plus 10 points from Marikate Gardler. The Panthers fast start kept the lead in double figures after the first five minutes as GSU led by 15 points, 43-28 at halftime. In the second half, GSU extended the lead to its zenith of 31 points at 74-43 with 4:46 to play and matched that several more times. “I thought we started the game with a lot of energy on defense tonight and made it hard for them to get many good shots,” coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. “We swarmed and forced turnovers,” coach continued. “We have talked about getting good starts so we can play the way we like and not have to be coming from behind. Our team will be a better team if we can have the balanced scoring like we got tonight from all the players.”

Game 2: Nov. 11, 2012, 1 p.m.

FLORIDA 84, GEORGIA STATE 65O’Connell Center • Gainesville, Fla. Florida pulled away from a scrappy Georgia State team to post an 84-65 win Sunday afternoon. Visiting GSU (1-1) won the rebound battle, 49-45, got off more shots, 73-69, but shot just 33 percent from the field in one of the big differences. Host Florida shot 44 percent and got to the free throw line 25 times, making 17, while GSU got to the line just 14 times and made 12. GSU forced 23 Florida turnovers, made eight steals and blocked three shots. Kayla Nolan led GSU with 13 points, while Kendra Long net-ted 11 points, despite making just 5-of-18 shots. Cody Paulk led with 12 rebounds and also added nine points. Florida (2-0) got 19 points from All-SEC forward Jennifer George in her first game of the season, while guard Jaterra Bonds added 17 more points. Georgia State trailed 37-25 at halftime, with Florida breaking from a 10-10 tie at 12:06 to a 25-12 advantage at 7:07 with a 15-2 run. GSU attempted 41 shots to the Gators’ 29, but made just 11 for a 26.8 shooting percentage. Hustling GSU held a 30-20 rebound first half rebound advantage. The game was 8-8 after the first seven minutes and 10-10 thru eight minutes. The Panthers trailed 16-12 after 11 minutes against the No. 24 RPI Gators. “I think we rushed our shots a little today because we had a lot of open looks we should have made,” Coach Baldwin-Tener said. “I was pleased with the effort in the first half, but I think we looked a little ragged in the sescond half,” she continued. “We did a pretty good job of rebounding, but we could have done even better, even though we had the advantage for the game.” “Obviously, our defense wasn’t as good as it needs to be and they had lots of sneak out baskets when they got a long pass and easy lay-up.” “It was a good road trip to be coming home at 1-1 and now we hope to get back in a winning groove with a stretch of home games.”

Game 1: Nov. 9, 2012, 7 p.m.

GEORGIA STATE 64 UCF 50UCF Arena • Orlando, Fla.

Georgia State opened the 2012-13 season with a 64-50 win over UCF with four players scoring in double figures. The visiting Panthers’ defense was the difference as GSU forced 28 turnovers, made 15 steals, blocked five shots and held host UCF to 29 percent shooting for the game. Junior guard Kendra Long scored 15 points, making three-of-five 3-point baskets to top the scoring and four steals to pace the defense. Sophomore guard Kayla Nolan had a double-double with 12 rebounds and 11 points. Senior center Cody Paulk was a major factor with 10 points, six rebounds and five blocked shots. Point guard Ashley Watson added 12 points. UCF of Conference USA got 18 points from guard Briahanna Jackson and 10 points from guard Genevia Carter. “We came out of the gate playing well tonight,” head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. “We got 34 points off the turn-overs and our defensive pressure was the difference, especially in the first half. We held them to a low shooting percentage and got some important steals to lead to baskets in transition.” Georgia State opened a 4-0 lead to start the game, allowed one UCF trey and then scored 13 straight points to make it 17-3 at 15:30 as Long drained a three to create that margin. The hot Panthers built the margin to 31-13 with 7:12 to go in the half. GSU held a 39-24 lead at halftime, holding UCF to 25 percent shooting. In the second half, GSU built the lead to 20 points quickly at 48-28 and had the largest lead of the night of 24 points at 52-28 with 16:24 to go. GSU shot 43 percent for the game, after starting out making 10 of its first 19 shots. GSU finished with a 43-41 rebound-ing advantage and got 10 points off second-chance offensive rebounds. GSU got 50 minutes of support from the five bench players in this evening’s opener. The Panthers finished with a 43-41 rebound advantage.

Game 4: Nov. 23, 2012, 2 p.m.

GEORGIA STATE 73, GEORGIA SOUTHERN 48Thanksgiving Tourney -GSU Sports Arena • Atlanta, Center Cody Paulk scored 18 points, grabbed 12 rebounds and blocked 6 shots to lead GSU to a 73-48 victory over Georgia Southern in the opening game of Georgia State Thanksgiving Tournament. GSU will now advance to play Florida A&M in the cham-pionship game at 4 p.m. on Saturday. Georgia Southern will play Kent State in the consolation game at 2 p.m. Saturday. Florida A&M came from behind at halftime to defeat Kent State, 70-56. Georgia State (3-1) used its aggressive defense to open a quick 14-4 lead and a 22-7 advantage through the game’s first 11 minutes. GSU led 34-18 at halftime by holding visiting Georgia Southern to 14.3 percent shooting (4-of-28). Georgia State finished by holding the Eagles to just 34.2 percent for the game (15-of-62). “I think our defensive pressure affected them early on and was a big key in today’s win,” coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. “We rushed them into some bad shots and that helped us get the job done on defense today.” Georgia State’s defense has held all three opponents to 50 points or fewer in starting the season 3-1. Today, GSU forced 15 turnovers and blocked 10 shots. Offensively, GSU had three players in double figures, led by Paulk’s 18 on 8-of-12 shooting in her 22 minutes. Sophomore guard Kayla Nolan added 15 points in her 23 minutes and freshman guard Ashlee Cole contributed 13 more points in her 22 minutes. The Panthers shot 47 percent for the game. Georgia State dominated the boards with a 52-37 rebound advantage, paced by Paulk’s 12 rebounds and Maryam Dogo’s 11 caroms. Georgia State’s bench scored 41 of the 73 points today. “We have extra firepower off the bench no matter who starts or who comes in later. Everyone is contributing when they are in the game.” “We are not depending on one person to lead us in scoring this year and we have plenty of firepower,” Baldwin-Tener added. “Paulk was solid on defense and altered a lot of their shot selection today. Offensively, she has the range to shoot those mid-range jumpers as well as drive to the rim.”

BELMONT 85, GEORGIA STATE 62Curb Event Center • Nashville, Tenn. Georgia State, who led the nation in 3-point field goal de-fense allowing 16 percent, ran into a red-hot Belmont team that made 9-of-15 3-pointers (60 percent). That was a major difference in Belmont’s 85-62 win in a noon game. The game turned at the 14-minute mark. Belmont was hold-ing a 48-45 lead when whistles started blowing frequently. GSU had four personals in about 50 seconds, plus a pair of technicals in a five-minute span on Coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener that led to her ejection. That 48-45 lead grews to 62-45 at 9:22 with Molly Ernst hitting three consecutive three-point baskets for Belmont in its 17-0 five-minute run. An 11-day layoff for finals showed early for GSU as their pressure defense did not force a Belmont turnover until 13 minutes into the game. The Panthers, who came into the game shooting 43.3 percent, hit just 39.6 percent today. Ernest, who averaged 8 points a game coming in, scored 23 today with 7-of-10 three-point baskets today. The loss ends Georgia State’s four-game winning streak. The win for Belmont followed its win over Indiana and ran its win-ning streak to three games. Georgia State got 13 points and six rebounds from sopho-more guard Kayla Nolan. Maryam Dogo added 10 points and eight rebounds off the bench, while junior guard Kendra Long added 10 more points. The Panthers started with a 4-0 lead and the game was tied at 14-14 after seven minutes. A Belmont 12-0 scoring run gave the Bruins a 26-14 lead at 8:41. GSU closed to 37-31, but Belmont took a 42-31 lead into halftime. In the second half, GSU came out stronger on defense and outscored Belmont 14-4 to make it 48-45 when the whistles helped Belmont gain a lot more momentum. The game included 39 fouls, plus two technicals, with 53 free throw attempts combined. But, for all the calls, it was probably the non-calls that had Coach Baldwin-Tener agitated the most in her rare ejection during her 14-year career. Georgia State held a 35-34 rebound advantage, but forced just 11 turnovers, almost half its normal average. GSU had eight steals and four blocked shots.

GEORGIA STATE 61, MOREHEAD STATE 47GSU Sports Arena • Atlanta Kayla Nolan notched her second career double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds to lead a balanced effort as Georgia State defeated Morehead State, 61-47, on Sunday Tiffany Anderson contributed 11 points and six rebounds for the Panthers, who improved to 6-2 on the season. Cody Paulk added nine points, seven boards, three steals and two blocked shots for GSU. “Tiffany Anderson really showed a lot of leadership today,” said GSU assistant coach Adrienne Shuler. “She was aggres-sive, offensively and on the boards, and that generated a lot of second and third opportunities. When she plays like that, she is huge for us.” Shuler served as head coach for this game with GSU head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener serving a one-game suspension, per Colonial Athletic Association policy, after she received two technical fouls in the Panthers’ last game. Georgia State used aggressive defense to force 21 Morehead State turnovers and limit the Eagles to 28 percent shooting from the field, including just 6-for-36 from three-point range. The Panthers also held the advantage on the boards, 50-37. GSU led 28-18 at the half after holding the Eagles to just 6-for-29 shooting from the field and forcing 16 MSU turn-overs. The Panthers led 24-8 with seven minutes to play in the first half before allowing Morehead State to close the gap with a 9-4 run. Early in the second half, Morehead State pulled within six points at 33-27, but Georgia State quickly responded with eight straight points in less than a minute to reestablish a 14-point lead. The run was fueled by back-to-back steals in the back-court by Kendra Long and Miranda Smith that produced easy layups. The Panthers maintained their double-digit advantage the rest of the way. Terrice Robinson led Morehead State with 10 points, and Casey Ryans added nine points and rebounds but the Eagles fell to 1-9. The Panthers improved to 5-0 at home by holding a fifth team under 30% shooting and a fifth team under 50 points scored on the season.
