RINDGE, N.H. (November 14, 2016) – Franklin Pierce women's basketball head coach Jeanette Wedo is proud to announce two early signees that will join the program for the 2017-18 season.

The first recruit is Hannah Everidge (Wachusett, Mass.) who is a 5-10 point guard and currently plays ball for the New England Crusaders AAU Program. Everidge attends Wachusett High School and averaged 12 points, six assists and four rebounds per game last season.

Joining Everidge next year on the Crimson and Grey is Hannah Martin (Calabasas, Calif.) who will travel from the West Coast to play ball in Rindge. Martin stands at 5-11 and plays forward for the GBL Team Candace Parker AAU team. She attends Viewpoint High School in California and last season averaged 19 points and 15 boards a contest.

"We are very excited to welcome the "Hannah's" to the Raven family said Coach Wedo." "Hannah Everidge will be an important addition to the backcourt. Her versatility, work ethic and basketball IQ are key components to our program. Hannah Martin is the first addition to our frontcourt for 2017 and will provide versatility and rebounding. Her high motor is a welcome complement to our style of play."

The Lady Ravens have started the 2016-17 campaign with a 1-1 record and will look for their second win of the season on Wednesday when they open up Northeast-10 Conference play versus Saint Michael's at 5:30 p.m.
