Sage names Sarah Carciobolo Team Captain for Women's Basketball

Troy, NY--The Sage College's women's basketball elected their 2011-2012 team captain last night, senior guard Sarah Carciobolo (Niskayuna, NY/Colonie). A letterwinner last season for the Gators, she is a returning veteran player that capped her first season at Sage with a 17-point performance in the season finale as the team earned the program's first appearance in the Skyline Conference Tournament.

Head Coach Jackie Craft said of Sarah's selection, "Sarah has proven that she is ready to step up and lead this young squad." Craft added, "As our lone senior, our coaching staff is confident that she will succeed in guiding our team in achieving the goals we have put in place for the 2011-2012 season."

Overall on the year, she added 191 points and tallied an 8.0 ppg average. She handed out 49 assists with 26 steals and made 15 starts in 24 games played. She added an 80.0 FT% and finished the year with a 40.3% effort from three-point range which stands fourth highest in single-season performances at Sage. Her 80.0% free throw was also fourth best for a season performance in the Gator record book.

Tapped to finish fifth in the race for the Skyline Conference Tournament, the Gators are under the guidance of seventh-year head coach Craft and are anxious for the new season to begin.
