Dover (June 24, 2009) --- Delaware State University head women's basketball coach Ed Davis has announced four additions to the Lady Hornets for the 2009-10 season. Guard/forward Crystal Pitt (fr. - Ft. Washington, Md.), forward Kianna D'Oliveira (fr. - Newport News, Va.), guard Jamarra Robinson (jr. - Ft. Pierce, Fla.), and center Uchechi Ahaiwe (fr. - Riverdale, Md.) recently signed the National Letter of Intent to attend Delaware State this fall.

Pitt (5-7) averaged 14.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 4.1 steals per-game as a senior at National Christian Academy (Md.) last season.

D'Oliveria (5-10) was a Daily Press (Va.) All-District Second Team selection after averaging 13.9 points and 8.0 rebounds-per-game during her senior year at Woodside High School last season.

Robinson (5-8) joins the Lady Hornets after two seasons at Palm Beach Community College in Florida. During the 2008-09 season, she led PBCC in scoring (9.9 ppg), assists (4.2 pg) and steals (2.6 pg), and was second in rebounding (6.2 pg). She was a two-time All-Florida Southern Conference First Team selection and team MVP.

Ahaiwe (6-3) was an All-Prince George's County Second Team selection and P.G. County Senior All-Star at Bladensburg High School last season. 

“I believe we addressed some critical team needs with this incoming class,” said Davis, who is 156-115 in nine seasons as head coach of the Lady Hornets. “This group will bring much needed speed and athleticism to our squad.”

Delaware State was 15-15 overall and finished third in the MEAC regular season with an 11-5 record in league play last season. The Lady Hornets must replace last year's starting guards Keyhana Wakefield and Jameka Smith, along with center Thea Littlepage.
