HEAD COACH - FIRST YEAR

Kacie Cryer Kacie Cryer, who for seven years played a big part in the success of the Cowgirls’ basketball program and one of the youngest head coaches in the nation was promoted to head coach in April. “Kacie is known as a rising star among assistant coaches across the U.S. and she has a passion for women’s collegiate athletics,” said Hemphill. “She has the unique perspective of both a collegiate student-athlete and a Division I assistant coach. She is an excellent recruiter and was instrumental in bringing in all of the Cowgirl recruits for the past seven years. “She cares deeply for her players’ welfare as athletes and students and I know she will carry on the tradition of community and university service that has become a trademark of Cowgirl Basketball. “Kacie has a tremendous work ethic and the tenacity to quickly make this team her own.” Cryer plans on continuing the success the Cowgirl program has had. “I will work extremely hard to get this program to a higher level.” A native of Abbeville and one of the rising young coaches in the business, Cryer began her coaching career at McNeese back in 2008 as a graduate assistant and has spent the last five seasons as the program’s recruiting coordinator. In those five years as the head of recruiting, the Cowgirls won a total of 103 games, an average of 20 wins a season. In addition to her recruiting duties, Cryer has coached both the guard and post positions during her tenure at McNeese, developing standout players such as Cecilia Okoye, Allison Baggett and Jayln Johnson. After taking a year off from coaching basketball following the 2010 season, Cryer returned to the McNeese bench for the 2011-12 slate to help guide the Cowgirls to their second consecutive Southland Conference Tournament championship and NCAA Tournament appearance. A year later the Cowgirls began their streak of four straight Women’s Basketball Invitational appearances, and in 2013, advanced to the championship game. In 2013, Cryer played a major part in the Cowgirls’ run to the Women’s Basketball Invitational (WBI) game in Detroit. McNeese has participated in the WBI the last four years.

Dowell Fontenot Sports Medicine Center McNeese State’s Dowell “Doc” Fontenot Sports Medicine Center is an ultramodern facility and one of the finest in the South. It is named after longtime McNeese athletic trainer Dowell Fontenot (pictured left) who was also a national champion boxer during his undergraduate days at the university and who is a member of the McNeese Hall of Fame. The center is located just south of the McNeese athletic fieldhouse. Funds for the 6,200 square foot medical center were obtained from the state, from private donations and from the McNeese PetroChem Athletic Association.

Charles Keuhn Weight Room

The Charles Kuehn Weight Room at the Jack Doland Field House was outfitted by Life Fitness Company and Hammer Strength Company who made the 8,000 square foot room a showcase weight facility. Weights are painted in platinum and blue and there are 16 Mondo enlayed platforms for heavy weight work, one of only eight schools in the nation to have this. The weight room also includes: 16 multi-purpose racks, 80,000 pounds of weights (McNeese logo on the weights), nine 52-inch flat screen television sets, mirrors all the way around, two treadmills, two elliptical machines, a stationary bike and a $12,000 surround sound system donated by Scott Bailey and Bailey Audio. A 12-foot McNeese logo sets off the room from the center floor. The facility is named in honor of McNeese State’s first football all-American who is pictured above.

Shante’ Perry was a two-time AllSLC pick during her four year career at McNeese. Perry scored her 1,000th point against UT-Arlington on Feb. 11, 2009 and ended her career as the school’s ninth alltime leading scorer. In her senior season, she led the Cowgirls in scoring and ranked second in the Southland Conference with 15.7 ppg. She ranked second in the SLC with 2.3 three-pointers made per game, third with an 82.6 free throw percent. Perry ranked among the nations best in points per game, three-point percent, field goal percent, three-point field goal percent and three-point field goals per game. She scored in double figures in 24 games and set a McNeese and tied a SLC record with nine three-pointers made in the Cowgirls’ 71-66 victory over Louisiana Tech (Jan. 3, 2009). In that game, she also tied a McNeese single game record for points scored with 39.

Sonny Watkins and Bridget Martin served as co-head coaches for four years (1990-94). During that time they were one of a few co-head coaches in the nation. The duo guided McNeese to three Southland Conference Tournaments and produced two All-Southland Conference players in Robin Daniels and Tangela McAlister. Both players garnered individual honors as well. Daniels was named the league’s “Freshman of the Year” in 1992 while McAlister was named the SLC “Newcomer of the Year” that same year. In 1993, McAlister was named to the Basketball Times All-America Team, only the fourth and last McNeese player to become an All-American. Watkins later served as the Universities Athletic Director from 1995-2007 while Martin went on to serve as head coach for seven more years before being named McNeese’s Associate AD for Compliance and Senior Woman Administrator in 2002, titles she still holds to date.

Landon McKee Joins 2015-16 Team

The McNeese women’s basketball team made an addition to their 2015-16 squad with the signing of 5-year-old Landon McKee to a National Letter of Intent (NLI). McKee, a kindergarten student at J. I. Watson Elementary in Iowa, Louisiana was born with Cystic Fibrosis, a life-threatening, genetic disease that causes persistent lung infections and prevents the release of digestive enzymes that allow the body to break down food and absorb vital nutrients. It didn’t take McKee long to warm-up to his new teammates. After each Cowgirl introduced herself to him, he was a little shy at first before one of the Cowgirls broke the ice by asking him if he wanted to shoot baskets. That was all it took.
