McGeorge, Pritchett honored with jerseys added to Ring of Honor display

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Young female athletes often dream of being recognized for their contributions to the game at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame. For Ashlee McGeorge and Courtney Pritchett, that dream has come true. Both their jerseys were placed on the Ring of Honor display at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Tennessee, in recognition of their outstanding play for the 2021-2022 season.
 
"The Ring of Honor is an exhibit at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame where we honor the nation's top players at every level," said Kelly Mathis, Director of Development for the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame. "To have your jersey on display at the Hall of Fame is a huge privilege and we are proud to celebrate the accomplishments of these young women."
 
Currently, the Ring of Honor consists of over 100 jerseys hanging from the rafters of the back rotunda at the Hall of Fame. By acknowledging these young athletes, the Hall of Fame can fulfill their mission to "honor the past, celebrate the present, and promote the future" of women's basketball. The display includes jerseys of the top high school and college players from the previous season. The Ring of Honor has displayed jerseys from some of the best players in the world including Candace Parker, Sue Bird, Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart, and Aja Wilson.

McGeorge was named to the WBCA All-American team for her 2021-22 season. The senior completed her season averaging 11.5 ppg while averaging 56% shooting from the field and playing 19.2 minutes per game. She was the leading rebounder for the team on the season with 6.7 per game. 

Pritchett was named NAIA First-Team All-American for the 2021-22 season averaging 10.1 ppg while being on the floor for 26.8 minutes per game. Just behind McGeorge in rebounds, Pritchett grabbed 5.3 boards per game while also posting 3.6 assists (second on the team). She was named to first team all-conference for the Mid-South.

The Women's Basketball Hall of Fame, which opened in 1999, is the only facility of its kind, dedicated to all levels of women's basketball.  For more information on the Ring of Honor or the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame visit www.wbhof.com or call (865) 663-9000.
