Toland Tops 1000 Points
Senior Guard Also Sets New Steals Record
Ferrum, Va. – Ferrum College women's basketball player
Tara Toland
(North, S.C./North) joined an elite list of players in the
1000-Point Club when she scored her first basket during Ferrum's
season-opening game Nov. 19 against Guilford College.
Toland came into the season with 999 career points and broke the
1000-point mark just minutes into the game. Toland would go
on to score 23 points in the game but it wasn't enough as Guilford
edged the Panthers 79-70.
The next day against Lynchburg College, Toland set a new school
record for single game steals, registering 11 against the Hornets.
Lynchburg slipped past Ferrum 82-74 in overtime. Toland came
into the season already owning two school records, career steals
(282) and career assists (365). She was an All-Conference
second team selection in 2004, and a first teamer in 2003.
Ferrum (0-2) returns to action November 22 when it travels to
Salem, Virginia, to face non-conference opponent Roanoke College
(2-0). For more information, please contact the Ferrum
sports information office at (540) 365-4306.
