True Life: I'm Megan Pillsbury



Heeeeey! My name is Megan Pillsbury but better known as "PILLS!" I am going to be a freshman at BW & I couldn't be more excited! I plan to major in Graphic Design and minor in Philosophy. I live in a small town called Vandalia which is just a few minutes North of Dayton, Ohio.I have been playing basketball since 1st grade and then started AAU in fifth grade and it has been nonstop ever since! My parents are Janice & Owen Pillsbury, I have a 22yr old brother named Evan, and three best friends named Shannon, Emily, and Lindsey! It is definetly going to be weird leaving them but I am up for anything. I love meeting new people and I am extremely adventurous. I am stoked to meet everyone on the team!



Heeeelllllooooo There! My name is Shannon Miller, I am one of the best friends and also featured in this video. Megan and I have been inseperable for 13 years now! She has been one of the most important people in my life for longer than I can remember. She has always been there for me, she is the type of friend that will always have your back even if she doesn't really agree with what you are doing she'll still support you. When we're together there's never a dull moment, we say/do crazy things and are always laughing about something. Megan, even though you won't be down the street from me any longer I'll still be back here in good 'ol v-town waiting for you to come home! Miss you already sugar dumplin' have fun and stay classy!




Howdy! I'm Emily Davis, also a featured friend of Megan's! I moved to our school system in 6th grade and MP was my first best friend! She's one of the most down-to-earth people you'll ever meet! Besides myself of course... which is why we make such a good team! We've had CRAZY times together, if you want to try something out of your comfort zone, Meg's the best partner! She pushes everyone to be themselves and to never care what people think, she loves you for you! After 6 glorious years of friendship, now I have to say good bye to this lil' mama! But Meg, you and your new friends are ALWAYS welcome to come visit me down south at UK :) -Pballa & Dballa 4L!

JESS CARPENTER, junior

Hi girls! Hopefully everyone's summer is going well, mine sure is. I'm Jess and I will be a junior next year. I recently just changed my major from Accounting to Healthcare Management so I am hoping things will work out great and I will enjoy the switch. I plan to go to nursing school after I graduate and be an RN in the emergency room, that has always been my dream. I am from North Canton Hoover and I come from a very competitive, winning program, which I am thankfun for because it really helped transition me from high school to college basketball. With that I am a very competitive person and I hate losing.



Lets see, I'm obsessed with DWade, so yes I am a MIAMI HEAT fan...next year is the year, sorry Cavs fans! I love to have a good time and have fun in everything I do, so prepare for a great year starting in August! I love to shop. Catherine and I are known as the girly girls of the team. She introduced me to a motto when I joined the hive and I live by it now too..."You have to look good to play good" dont forget it! Two more things I am obsessed with is high heels and dresses.. I have a gizillllion pairs of shoes, and probably over 20 dresses in my closet. But anyways, I am looking forward to having a great year this season and I can't wait to meet all of you. Welcome to the yellow jacket hive, hopefully you like BW as much as I do! :)

SUMMER!!!!

Hello Everyone!
My name is Nancy Coulter and I am going to be a senior this year!! Although I will be a senior in school, I will only be a junior in basketball, yes I know your thinking what??It's true! This past season I tore my ACL in December and had my surgery January 11th, 2011. By just making the red shirt cut off of seven games, I will be able to get the season back and play my fifth year. This leads me to my major, which is health and physical education. I plan to be a teacher and basketball coach! :) Conveniently I have to be here an extra year for my major, therefore, I can play my red shirt year! Other awesome information about me is that I have a younger sister who just turned 14 in May and a fantastic mother Patty. This summer I'm working at Domtar ( it's a factory that makes printer paper) where I am working wonderful 12 hr shifts... lol but loving my paycheck! Along with that, I am continuing my physical therapy while home, which is still going GREAT!
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer and working hard for this upcoming season! I am really excited to meet all of the incoming freshman as well :)

Jooooonyyuuurrrhhh!!!!!


Hey everyone!

My name is Jen Calhoon and I'm going to be a junior this year studying Communication Disorders. I play in the guard position on the Brown Squad. It's quite an honor to be on that team as so everyone agrees. I am currently working at a catering company this summer so I'm trying to roll in the dough. My parents are divorced so at the majority of the games you'll see my mom Elaine and stepfather Howie. I'll be staying at Hamilton Apartments pretty much with the rest of the upperclassmen so I can't wait for everyone to hang out together! Pasta dinners every friday night before games on saturday :)

I can't wait for the smoothie bar in the rec, I'm secretly a genius but I just don't like to show it, annnnnd I can't wait to meet all the newbies!!
