Introducing...The Blue Chippers

These girls are the hard-working, hard-nosed, tough players full of hustle. They are the Blue chippers.

Chinata Nesbit(Robert Morris)- Growing up in a neighborhood full of violence, Nesbit truly learned quickly just how tough she was. After going through the junior college ranks, she finally transferred to Robert Morris for her junior and senior years. With Chinata down low, the Colonials have been a strong power in the Colonial Conference and even recieved a bid to last years NCAA's. She's a hard worker on both end, because that's all she knows.

Erlana Larkins(North Carolina)- Being outshined and outscored by Ivory Latta, Larkins learned how to be efficient. As one of the better posts in the nation, Larkins brings it on both ends. She can block your shot, or rebound miss. Offensively, she excels at getting the ugly misses, sometimes off of a fellow teammate's miss. Her game may not be pretty, but her statline usually is.

Jill Noe(Arizona State)- Jill Noe isn't Jill Noe without a floor burn. This sixth-year senior doesn’t demand touches, but Noe’s more than capable of supplying her team with timely buckets as a key member of a deep Arizona State backcourt. However, her most sought-after trait is her hustle. Noe is every where on the floor. Whether it's creating a steal or grabbing a loose ball rebound, she is always hustling.

Marcedes Walker(Pittsburgh)- Before Walker came to Pittsburgh, the Panthers were an easy 'W' for the most part. The program as a whole was very under-supplied. But when this 6'3" post stepped on to the floor four short years ago, everything changed. Walker has shown she can score on the block, defend in the post, and rebound the ball at a high rate. Last year she led the Panthers to their first NCAA tournament and first NCAA tourney win. Much like her team, you can never count her out.

Tasha Humphrey(Georgia)- Most forget about this highly-skilled post, but soon you may kick yourself. It feels like Humphrey has been in Athens for just a couple years, but sadly this will be her last. Throughout her career, she's become a much better player on both ends. She's a versatile player who can go inside and out, and she's a steady defender with good footwork. She is a very hard worker and has worked well for Georgia in the past, dominating a fair number of their games. She's one of the top players in the SEC and that should say a lot.
