MURRAY STATE UNIVERSITY

Keiona Kirby graduated from Liberty Tech in 2011 after a stellar career as a guard on the Lady Crusaders basketball team that made it to the Class AA semifinals. Kirby went on to play four years at Murray State in which she averaged 9.1 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game in 102 total appearances for the Racer women in which she started 39 games. She followed that up last season with a year of serving as a graduate assistant for the program, but she’s not done being a part of the program yet. It was announced on Monday that Kirby has been hired as an assistant coach for the program. – Brandon Shields, The Jackson Sun. Read More.
