Former Kennedy Catholic star Jasmine Lemon is competing for Seattle University in the Women's College Invitational basketball tournament.
The Redhawks (20-13) square off against Northern Iowa (18-14) in a WCI semifinal game Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Connelly Center in Seattle.
In Seattle U's 82-65 win over Wright State in the quarterfinals on Sunday, Talisa Rhea scored a game-high 18 points and Kacie Sowell had 16 points and 14 rebounds. Lemon saw playing time in the game but didn't score.
"Jasmine is a smart, quick and heady player," said Seattle U coach Joan Bonvicini, adding that Lemon is the kind of player who makes everyone around her better.
"She is a winner and an excellent student. (To) bring in another local player (like Lemon) shows the talent and quality of players here in Seattle, and how we are bridging the gap between Seattle University and the Seattle community."
