The Captains underclassmen have led the way this season, especially the sophomore class. Tia Perry, Nicole Mitchell and Andrea Hobbs have played integral roles in the Captains' success, while freshman Camry Green hauled in USA South Rookie of the Year honors. Green had 17 points and 12 rebounds in the Captains last game versus Ferrum.
