A nominee for the WBCA Allstate Good Works Team and the Lowes Senior CLASS award, Kiesel spent this past summer in Vietnam with the ‘Coach for College’ program where she taught math and basketball to 6th and 7th graders. Kiesel has already graduated with a degree in administraion of justice and is working on her second degree in legal studies/ communications. Her volunteer work also includes mentoring children at the Pittsburgh Kids Foundation, working at the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System and spending time at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. On the court, Kiesel enters her senior season ranking 10th on the all-time scoring list with 1,348 points and 13th in career assists with 289. She has increased her production every season and had a breakout junior campaign in which she averaged 16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists. She led the ACC in free throws made and attempted, and ranked second in minutes per game. She was selected to the All-ACC Academic Team. AWARDS All-ACC Academic Team (2014) National Player of the Week (Jan. 7, 2014) ACC Player of the Week (Jan. 6, 2014) Big East Honorable Mention 2013 Big East All-Academic Team 2013 Big East All-Freshman Team 2012 “Brianna is a difference maker. She is an impact RECORD BOOK WATCH “As usual, Bri is not only an excellent and player in every aspect of the game. She is a Points - 1,348 (10th) engaged student, but also a model classroom scorer, a leader and she dictates the tempo of Assists - 289 (13th) citizen. If such things were measured, she would the game.” Steals - 130 (18th) be breaking records off the court as well as on.” -Head Coach Suzie McConnell-Serio - Professor William Upchurch FT Percentage - 77.8 (5th) 2014-15 PITT WOMEN’S BASKETBALL 2014-15 SEASON OUTLOOK Led by senior guard Brianna Kiesel and bolstered by a top-20 recruiting class, the University of Pittsburgh women’s basketball team looks to continue to make strides in its second year in the ACC. Kiesel enters her inal season at Pitt ranking 10th on the all-time scoring list with 1,348 points. Learning from arguably the best women’s point guard to ever play the game in second year head coach Suzie McConnell-Serio, there is no surprise that Kiesel had a career year in McConnell-Serio’s irst season at the helm. Kiesel saw an increase in all of her numbers as she inished the season averaging a career-best 16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. She was once again an iron woman, starting in all 30 games she played and she has now started all 90 of her career. This was Kiesel’s third straight season leading the Panthers in points and assists, a feat that has never been accom- plished before at Pitt. In Pitt’s irst two ACC games in program history, Kiesel went for 20 points and seven assists against Florida State, then had 26 points and seven assists at Virginia. For her efforts she was named the USBWA National Player of the Week, as well as the ACC Player of the Week, and became the irst Pitt player to garner either award. Despite the veteran leadership of Kiesel, the Panthers are relatively inexperienced as the rest of the returning players com- bined to make just 16 starts last season. Center Cora McManus is back for her inal year, while she and Brittany Gordon join Kiesel as the only other returning upperclassmen. Gordon will miss the majority of the season with a shoulder injury, while redshirt sophomore Bubbles Anderson is out for the entire season after her second ACL tear. The Panthers hope to receive a spike in production from two true sophomores in sharp shooting guard Fred Potvin and versa- tile guard Chelsea Welch. Potvin had ive double-igure scoring games last season and made the second most 3-pointers on the team with 29. Welch came on strong at the end of the season, averaging 26.6 minutes per game during the inal 11 games of the season and scored a career-high 16 points against then #13 NC State. Welch made nine starts as a freshman. “We are not a very experienced team,” McConnell-Serio said. “One of those players, besides senior Brianna Kiesel, who has that playing time experience is Chelsea Welch. She is someone that, from her experience, will continue to grow in her game. Our other sophomore is Fred Potvin. Fred had a tremendous offseason. She will be a completely difference player. She is a shooter who can stretch the court, but she has elevated her game to a different level.” Senior center Cora McManus enters her Suzie McConnell-Serio is 134-88 as she Brianna Kiesel enters her senior season senior campign having played in 72 enters her 8th season as a head ranking
