#5 Clayshonia Cogmon, Forward, Chester, Pa.
Cogmon played four seasons of competition with the Lions. Her tenacity, athleticism, and grit helped her blaze a trail in the record books. Cogmon was one of the best rebounding players in the country for her career. She was an all conference player and 2019 CSAC Defensive Player of the Year. She finished her career with 73 games played. In those games played she racked up 854 points, 849 rebounds, and 222 steals. Her career averages are 11.7 points per game, 11.6 rebounds per game, and 3 steals per game. Coach Travis Ponton on Clay and her impact, "Clay has made history here in her time as a student-athlete at Bryn Athyn. She's been a consistent force, ranking nationally in DIII in steals and rebounding, and she graduates as the only Bryn Athyn student-athlete with her own banner hanging in Asplundh Field House (so far!) as the 2019 CSAC Defensive POY. But it's her indelible spirit and the person that she is off the court that I think will be missed the most. She impacted many in her time here, and her impact on the young people in her community will be immense as she transitions into her life as an educator."

#1 Jayda Campbell, Guard, Bristol, Pa.
Campbell played two years with the women's basketball program. The junior college transfer did not take long to make her impact known. In her junior year, Campbell led the Lions in scoring with 11.9 points per game. Campbell had a smooth game and thrived in transition. She appeared in 17 career games and scored 202 points, grabbed 64 rebounds, and swiped 26 steals as a Lion. Coach Ponton remarked, "Jayda joined us two years ago from a junior college, and contributed so much in the way of her scoring and just her game experience. She was a starter for us from day 1, and has played a key role in helping us begin the rebuilding process. Off the court, Jayda balances a lot, and her dedication to her work and passion for helping others is leading her into the nursing field. She's going to excel in the healthcare field, and we are so proud of her."

Thank you Clay and Jayda! The college, the athletic department, the women's basketball program, and the community are appreciative of you both.
