Claremonters doing big things away from town

Congratulations to former Claremont High School basketball standouts Brandi Brown and Dave Rice as the 2 made history this past Friday and Saturday.

Brown scored her 1000th point in her collegiate career in a win against Loyola Marymount on Friday. The junior on the Youngstown State University women's basketball team has narrowly missed scoring the point on Nov. 21 but reached the milestone by converting a free throw early in Friday's contest in Los Angeles.

In his first year as the head coach of UNLV, Coach Rice picked up the biggest win his career last Saturday as the Runnin' Rebels upset No.1 ranked North Carolina in the championship game of a tournament held in Las Vegas. The win knocked the Tarheels off the mountaintop and improved UNLV to 7-0 on the season.

Be sure to check out tomorrow's COURIER for the full stories on both Brown and Rice's recent accomplishments. Until then, below are YouTube clips featuring both of Claremont's own:
