North Catholic’s Tess Myers drives past Bethlehem Catholic’s Briana Barnard during the PIAA Class 4A girls state championship game Saturday, Mar. 23, 2019, at Giant Center in Hershey.
North Catholic’s Tess Myers, one of the WPIAL’s top juniors, added another Division I offer after leading her basketball team to the state finals.
The 5-foot-10 guard announced an offer from Atlantic 10 member St. Joseph’s this week, raising her scholarship total to eight. Myers added three others just in the past month: UNC Wilmington, William & Mary and St. Bonaventure.
Myers averaged a team-best 15.4 points for North Catholic (26-4), which won the WPIAL title for the third consecutive year. She was second on the team in rebounding at 5.5 rpg.
She scored a game-high 20 points in the state Class 4A final March 23 when North Catholic lost to Bethlehem Catholic, 60-49, in Hershey.
Myers previously announced offers from La Salle, Charlotte, Kent State and Niagara.
