by FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The Nova Southeastern Sharks Women’s Basketball team continues to retool for the upcoming 2022-23 season by adding Kyannah Grant (Navajo/Mississippi Choctaw), a graduate transfer from Tennessee-Martin, announces Head Coach LeAnn Freeland-Curry.
Grant will be joining her sister, and fraternal twin, Kyarrah on the Sharks. During the 2021-22 season, Kyannah started 23-of-26 games, averaging 32.6 minutes per game, 6.9 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game.
“Kyannah is an exceptionally skilled point guard with a high-motor that impacts both ends of the court. She pushes the tempo on offense, is a solid distributor, and a three-point maker. Defensively, she is a tenacious on-ball defender who understands positioning well,” said Freeland-Curry. “Because of her high basketball IQ, coachability, positive attitude and high-efficiency scoring ability, she is a perfect fit for our system. Our coaching staff and players are excited to announce Kyannah Grant is a Shark.”
Some of the most notable games during her playing days at UTM include, 18 points against Eastern Illinois, a perfect 5-5 night from beyond the arc against Tennessee Tech, and a pair of five steal games (Belmont and Christian Brothers).
Kyannah will be pursuing her graduate degree in Computer Science upon enrolling at Nova Southeastern.
