Fun fact about Armintie: instead of following the normal trend of WNBA players and heading to Europe in the off-season to play foreign basketball, Price uses her off-season to return to Oxford and be an assistant for the Lady Rebels. Another interesting fact: remember Carol Ross? Who coached Armintie and the girls to the Elite 8? She is, currently, an assistant for the Atlanta Dream, where she continues to help Price be a damn good Rebel.
Stephen Head, meanwhile, is leading the Southern Illinois Miners in their Frontier League best 38-6 record. Last week, he homered in two straight games to extend their winning streak to twenty games. Homeboy leads the Frontier League in RBI's.
No news is good news, I guess, for Devin Britton and Houston Nutt.
