2020-21 BULLDOGS BASKETBALL | @UNCAVLBULLDOGS | @UNCAVLWBB | #KEEPCLIMBING | #FEO HEAD COACH HONEY BROWN

HONEY BROWN HEAD COACH, FIRST SEASON Maryville (Tenn.), 1994 Honey Brown became the 11th head coach in program history and the seventh since the program moved to Division I in the 1986-87 season on April 7, 2020. She has spent the past eight seasons as an assistant for the Bulldogs under former Head Coach Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick Brown. After six seasons, she was elevated to associate head coach prior to the start of the 2018-19 campaign. “I am honored to be the next Head Women’s Basketball Coach at UNC Asheville,” Brown said. “I am thankful to Chancellor Cable and Janet Cone for this opportunity. Asheville has been a wonderful place on and off the court for me the past eight years and I look forward to many more years to come. “I am grateful to Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick Brown for all the hard work and love she put into UNC Asheville. Together we built something very special and I am excited to now lead this program.” Prior to her time on the Bulldogs’ bench, Brown spent four seasons as an assistant at Saint Louis working primarily with SLU’s point guards. Before her time with the Billikens, Brown served as director and head trainer at Performance Training, Inc., in Orlando, Fla. While there, she managed all aspects of the company, including staffing, schedules, and marketing. Brown also spent four years as an assistant at Ohio University and a season as an assistant at Central Florida. She got her start in coaching as an assistant with Lenoir City High School in Lenoir City, Tenn. While with LCHS, she helped lead the Panthers to a state tournament appearance in 1998. A 1994 graduate of Maryville College, she was third in the nation in three-point percentage for Division III her junior year, while serving as a team captain her final two seasons. The Scots made four consecutive appearances in the NCAA Division III Tournament during her career at Maryville, including two trips to the round of 16. “On behalf of the entire UNC Asheville community, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Coach Mock Kirkpatrick Brown for her expertise, leadership and outstanding record leading our women to victory as a team and as individuals,” said UNC Asheville Chancellor Nancy J. Cable. “I stand ready to support Coach Honey Brown and each and every one of our talented and high-energy players as they pursue success both on and off the court.” On July 7, 2018, Brown was appointed to Associate Head Coach for the 2018-19 campaign. Prior to the upcoming season, Brown was the Assistant Coach for the previous six seasons for the women’s basketball program. Through the first six years that Brown has been on head coach Brenda Kirkpatrick’s staff in Asheville, they have taken the program to new heights and set a new standard. That includes going from winning nine games in 2014-15 to winning 62 games in just three campaigns while capturing back-to-back Big South Conference Tournament crowns, two NCAA Tournament berths, three consecutive postseason berths and one Big South Conference regular-season title. During Brown’s six years in Asheville, nine Bulldogs earned All-Big South Conference honorees, including 2015-16 league Player of the Year Chatori Major. Additionally, six players earned Big South Championship All-Tournament honors with Major and Sonora Dengokl being named Most Valuable Player in 2016 and 2017. In the 2017-18 season, UNC Asheville women’s basketball raced through Big South Conference play, which was highlighted by handing Liberty its first league loss of the year. The Bulldogs’ season was capped off by playing in their third straight postseason tournament. UNC Asheville hosted Furman in the Women’s Basketball Invitational (WBI), which was the first time the program has hosted a postseason tournament. Also during the 2017-18 season, Bronaza Fitzgerald broke the UNC Asheville Division I record for single-season rebounds with 319. Khaila Webb also etched her name into the record book, as she finished her career with 1,109 points (13th-most all-time), and Jessica Wall also broke the program record for the most made three-pointers in a season (90). While the 2016-17 campaign proved special, it also brought about its own unique challenges. The Bulldogs finished the year with a 19-15 record that included an impressive finish and UNC Asheville’s second-straight Big South Conference Championship crown and NCAA Tournament berth. The 19-15 record marked just the seventh time in program history that UNC Asheville women’s basketball finished with a positive record. Tabbed as the league’s preseason favorite to claim the regular-season crown, the Bulldogs started the season well enough, winning four of their first five games. As the calendar turned to conference play, the Bulldogs lost key players to injury, forcing the staff to make changes to personnel and game strategies while asking players to expand their rolls. Despite going 9-9 in Big South play during the regular season, the changes and growth paid off in spades as the Bulldogs closed out the 2016-17 campaign winning eight of their last 10 games. Included in that stretch were two wins to wrap up the

Major and fellow senior KJ Weaver were both named to the Big South All-Conference teams with Major picking up her second-straight first-team honor. Major became just the fourth UNC Asheville women’s basketball player to earn multiple Big South first-team plaudits. Major was also named to the conference’s All-Academic Team. During the season several players permanently etched their names in the UNC Asheville record book. Senior guards Tianna Knuckles and Chatori Major became the 105th and 106th women’s basketball players in conference history to eclipse the 1,000 career point mark. Knuckles ended her playing career with 1,129 career points, the 10th-most all- time in program history and sixth-most in Asheville’s NCAA Division I era. Major ended her career with 1,116 career points, the 12th-most by a Bulldog all-time and eighth-most in the Division I era. As a junior during the 2015-16 season, Knuckles set the school record for most three-pointers in a single season with 73. It was a mark that had stood for over 25 years. During the 2016-17 campaign, Major then broke the record and set a new standard with 78 three-pointers. The 2015-16 season saw the Bulldogs post the biggest turnaround season in NCAA Division I women’s basketball, finishing the year with an overall record of 26-7 following a 9-22 season the year before. Asheville hosted many decorated Bulldogs as a part of the 2015-16 campaign that paved the way to Asheville’s success on and off the court. Chatori Major earned Big South Conference Player of the Year and Conference Tournament MVP honors, along with teammate Tianna Knuckles, who received Big South Second Team All-Conference honors as well as being named an All-Tournament team selection. Paige Love earned Big South All-Academic team honors
