Mercedes Owens is expecting a major shift in her schedule in the upcoming weeks. But she doesn’t mind adjusting to it.
The former Chattanooga Christian School basketball player signed scholarship papers Friday night to continue her career at Bryan College.
Owens, a 3-point specialist, helped the Lady Chargers win 81 games in four years, reaching the region tournament each season.
“One of the main reasons I chose Bryan was because of the Christian atmosphere,” she said. “I feel God pushed me to go there, and I want a better relationship with him.
“The school has good academics, I loved the basketball and the faculty was great. I fit in with the team. Most of the girls are 3-point shooters, and that’s what I do.”
