Young Realizes Dream

After breaking school and conference scoring records, Tamera Young has made her mark again.

Young was projected to go in the first round of the 2008 WNBA Draft, and Wednesday she was taken eighth overall by the Atlanta Dream, an expansion franchise. She is the first JMU player taken since the WNBA was started in 1997. Read about her selection here.

Young gave a press conference in Atlanta today, along with three players from the Dream. She is scheduled to return to Harrisonburg on Friday, and is currently finalizing her contract with an agent.

Exciting! And a very good article, as I've already told you. It's weird to think that something so cool can happen to someone so close.
