Mascoto to Play Overseas
Michelle Mascoto '07 recently signed a contract to play basketball
for Lemvig Basket, a basketball club on the west coast of Denmark.
The team plays at the second level of Denmark's women's league, where
they finished in fourth place last season. "The goal [next season]
is to reach the top two," said Lemvig Basketball associate Rene Jakobsen.
"Michelle will be a key player to reach that goal."
Mascoto
led the Poets with over 30 minutes played per game, 11.3 points
per game, 7.9 rebounds per game, 84 assists and 85 steals.
In the conference, Mascoto led the SCIAC in steals. She was ninth
in scoring, fifth in rebounding, 13th in field goal percentage (.385),
fourth in assists, tenth in free throw percentage (.667) and 11th in
three-point field goal percentage (.299). She was 13th in three's
made (26), 13th in blocked shots (10) and sixth in assist-to-turnover
ratio.
"I am really excited about this opportunity," said Mascoto. "This
is something I have wanted for a long time. It's going to be a
great life experience." She is not the first SCIAC stand out that
has played for Lemvig. Three players from California Lutheran
University ventured to Denmark to play for the club in the past.
Mascoto leaves to join the club on August 13. |
