LEWISTON, Idaho – Lewis-Clark State women’s basketball coach Brian Orr announced on Monday that Jade Fulbright (Wenatchee, Wash.) has signed a National letter of intent to play basketball for the Warriors in 2004-05.
“We feel extremely fortunate that Jade has decided to join our program,” said Orr. “The fact that she earned eleven varsity letters tells you that she is an outstanding athlete. She is very strong and we really like her ability to penetrate to the basket. She is also an excellent defender, but what we like most is her competitive spirit. Jade is a perfect fit for our program.”

As a junior, Fulbright averaged 10 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists while being named CBBN All-Conference Honorable Mention. In 2001-02, she was named KPQ Radio Player of the Year and received the Coaches Award after averaging 8.4 points and 2.4 rebounds as a sophomore.
A three-sport athlete at Wenatchee High, Fulbright also excelled in soccer and softball for the Panthers. As a senior on the soccer team, Fulbright was named All-State Honorable Mention and received the team MVP award for the third consecutive year. She was also named First Team All-Columbia Basin Big-Nine Conference and received the Captains Award. As a sophomore on the softball team, Fulbright hit .370 with 14 RBIs and was named the team MVP.
