Five 'Belles honored

Five members of the Angelo State women's basketball team received postseason accolades at the Lone Star Conference's Awards banquet in Bartlesville, Okla., Tuesday evening.

Camille Perkins, Paige Weishuhn, Leah LeMaire, Lindsey Leatherman-Schaertl and Cassi Wright were honored at the banquet which precedes the annual championship tournament.

Perkins, a 5-7 junior guard from Groesbeck, was named to the All-LSC South Division first team for the third-straight year. Perkins was the 'Belles' leading scorer this season with 15.7 points per game while finishing second on the team with 60 assists and a .743 free-throw percentage.

Weishuhn, a 6-1 sophomore center from Wall, received an honorable mention nod from the division's coaches. Weishuhn was the team's leading free-throw shooter (77.4%), tied for the team lead in rebounding (4.8 per game) and second on the team in scoring averaging 12 points per game.

LeMaire, a 5-8 freshman guard from Corpus Christi, was named the LSC South Division's Freshman of the Year and gives the 'Belles two winners of the award in the past three seasons as Perkins captured the honor in 2008. LeMaire finished third on the team in scoring, 6.5 points per game, and finished second on the squad with 32 steals.

Leatherman-Schaertl and Wright were honored by the league for their work in the classroom as they were named to the Commissioner's Honor Roll. Leatherman-Schaertl, a 5-9 senior forward from Floydada, had her season cut short due to an injury but finished the year averaging 5.2 points per game and 2.3 rebounds. Wright, a 5-7 sophomore guard from Tuscola, appeared in 20 of the 'Belles 26 contests and averaged 2.1 points and 1.1 rebounds per contest.

The 'Belles' finished with a 12-14 record on the season, 5-7 in the LSC South, and missing out on the LSC Tournament for the first time in 11 years.
