Gabriel "Bradie has spent a year and a half in total frus­ Comments: tration with numerous health problems. My hope is that we can get her healthy enough to help us when the OVC schedule comes around. She is one of the best pure shooters I have seen and could be the type to hit the game-winning shots. Her health, however, is my number one priority; basketball is much farther down the line."

Why I Chose Morehead State "The atmosphere is one of the reasons I chose to attend Morehead State. The students, as we11 as the faculty members, have been very nice and have helped me through any problems."

She gives us the opportunity defen­ sively to stop people on other teams. Also, her speed fits our fastbreak.i ng style. Continued work and improvement should make her unstoppable offen­ sively."

I be­ lieve that as she matures and understands the intensity of college basketball, she will excel. She has such a tremendous advantage to be six foot and have guard skills. She can be the impact player we need on the perimeter if she decides she wants it. It's my opinion that as a basketball player, the sky is the limit for Alisha."

Morehead State University IThe University 29

Historically Morehead Stale Uni versity traces its lineage to the Morehead Normal School, which opened its doors in 1887. The private school closed in the spring of 1922 when the Kentucky General Assembly established Morehead State Nonna! School. Since then, the University has grown from a teachers college to a regional university that serves Ke ntucky and Appalachia. Until university status was granted in 1966, the institution's primary mission was the training of teachers. However, the curriculum now embraces nearly 120 academic programs on the associate, baccalaureate and graduate levels. Physically, the University consists of more than fifty major structures valued at more than $110 million. There are more than 38,000 MSU alumni. Administratively, the University operates under an I I -member Board of Regents that consists of e ight citizens appointed by the governor of Kentucky, with three other seats held by elected faculty, staff and s tude nt representatives. The administrati ve structure covers primarily four areas: academic affairs, administration and fiscal services, university advancement and student life. Each of these units is headed by a vice president. There are approximate ly 8,400 men and women enrolled at Morehead State University, of whom about 6,800 are undergraduates. The University recognizes more than I 00 student organi zations, including 23 nationally chartered fraternities and sororities, and sponsors a full program of intercollegiate and intramural athletics for men and women. MSU is basically a residential campus and has fi fteen reside nce halls. About 90 pe rcent of its stude nts are Kentuckians. Graced by a large lake, the campus sits in the foothills of the Daniel Boone National Forest. Among the Uni versity's facilities are an experimental fann and a nine-hole golf course.
