The University of Detroit Mercy women’s basketball program and head coach Bernard Scott has announced the addition of two new graduate assistants in local products and college basketball standouts Brianna Rowe and Da’Jourie Turner.
“I’m excited about having Brianna and Da’Jourie join our program,” coach Scott said. “They have both proven to be hard workers and self-motivators. Those are key factors I look for when hiring my graduate assistants. They have also been part of winning programs during their college careers and we want to make sure we bring in people that know how to win and think like winners!”
