SOUTHAVEN, Mississippi – Junior Andrea Dubose has been named to the 2008 All-Gulf South Conference Women’s Basketball Second Team, one day before the Blossoms take on Alabama-Huntsville in the 2008 GSC Basketball Championship Tournament.

Dubose (Hickory, Miss.) was the only UAM player to make either 2008 team, after leading the Blossoms in scoring, assists, steals, and minutes played in the 2007-08 season.

Dubose is currently leading the Blossoms and is the 11^th best scorer in the conference with an average of 13.0 points per game.

Dubose has made her presence known on the basketball court this season with her quickness and high pressure defense, leading to a great amount of takeaways. Dubose leads the conference in steals with an average of just over 3.6 per game. She has been in or around the top 10 in the nation in that category for most of the season.

The transfer from East Central Community College has scored 10 or more points in 20 games this season, including her season high of 25 points in a win over Central Baptist in December.

Dubose recorded her season high of eight steals in a win over Montevallo in the Ouachita Baptist Classic in December. Also in the Montevallo game, Dubose recorded her only double-double of the season with 15 points and 11 rebounds.

On a team that has no problem shooting the three-pointer, Dubose is one of the leaders. She leads the team with 65 three-pointers made and trails only teammate Janette Thompson in three-point field goal percentage.

Dubose joins fellow GSC West players Crystal Shelton from Christian Brothers, Jessica Boyd from Delta State, Stacey Owens from Harding, and Goldie White from Southern Arkansas on the 2008 All-GSC Second Team.
