LAS CRUCES, N.M. – New Mexico State women's basketball head coach
Brooke Atkinson announced the signing of forward Shania Harper on Wednesday.
Â
"Shania is great sign for us, comes from a great family and is an outstanding young woman," said Atkinson. "Shania has that out work you, blue collar mentality. She also has a high motor and huge upside and we're excited to see what she can do in the Crimson and White."

The Las Vegas, Nev., native attended Sierra Vista High School where she averaged a double-double her sophomore and junior seasons. Harper is an excellent rebounder, pulling down 17 double-doubles in her high school career.
