Chippewas sign three to women's basketball team
Sue Guevara has officially added three new women's basketball players for Central Michigan.
On Signing Day, Midland Dow guard Molly Davis, Saginaw Heritage forward Shine Strickland-Gills and Warren Cousino guard Kate McArthur pledged to join Guevara's program beginning in the 2019-20 season.
"Overall I think this class brings a lot of energy to our program," Guevara said. "They've all got a great work ethic and are real tough-minded kids. I think they are all going fill needs for us at their positions down the road."
Molly Davis
Davis, a 5-foot-7 guard, dropped in 832 points during her first three seasons at Dow High School in Midland. In 2017-18, Davis averaged a team-high 17.1 points per game.
"Molly is a point guard that brings a high-tempo style of play and is a real mentally tough kid," Guevara said. "She can shoot the ball and has played against some of the best in the country. I think our fans are really going to love watching her play."
Shine Strickland-Gills
Strickland-Gills averaged 12.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 2.0 steals per game in the 2017-18 season for Heritage High School in Saginaw.
The 6-foot forward was named State Finals Class A MVP, First Team Saginaw Valley League and has been a member of three-straight SVL championship teams.
"Shine is a leaper and can help us set up the floor," Guevara said. "She also has a real quick jumper and can play with her back to the basket."
Kate McArthur
McArthur is a 5-foot-8 guard from Cousino High School in Warren. Following the conclusion of her junior 2017-18 season, McArthur already accumulated more than 1,000 career points for the Patriots and was a two-year team captain. As a junior, McArthur was named First Team All-State by the Detroit News and Detroit Free Press.
"She's strong and a great 3-point shooter who can run the floor," Guevara said of McArthur.
