RADFORD, Va. – Radford Women's Basketball Head Coach Mike McGuire has announced the signings of two student-athletes, Lorrie Brown and Keira Stanford, who signed their National Letters of Intent yesterday.
Brown is making history for her homeland, as she is the first women's basketball player from the Cayman Islands to receive and accept an NCAA Division I offer.
Stanford, from Leesburg, Va., comes to Radford after helping lead her high school to their first VHSL team-sport title in 2025.
Lorrie Brown
Forward | 6-1 | George Town, Cayman Islands | DME Academy (Daytona Beach, Fla.)
MCGUIRE ON LORRIE: "Lorrie is a welcomed addition to our program. She has played at a high level in high school at DME and on the EYBL circuit. Lorrie values winning and embracing roles that help a team win at a high level. She will bring versatility and height to our forward position."
CAYMAN ISLANDS BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION (CIBA) PRESIDENT COLLIN ANGLIN ON LORRIE: "We are extremely proud of Lorrie! She has shown what is possible when you set a goal and pursue it relentlessly! She not only had the talent, but also the discipline and work ethic that is required to play at the highest level. Her story will open up more doors for other female Caymanian basketball athletes! But it will take no less effort, determination, and persistence to capitalize on such opportunities." (provided from Cayman Marl Road)
Keira Stanford
Guard | 5-11 | Leesburg, Va. | Heritage High School
MCGUIRE ON KEIRA: "Keira is someone I have followed for a few years and have been impressed with her growth as a player. We are signing one of the most underrated players in the state of Virginia. She is a competitor, winner, and a leader. Keira has consistently demonstrated that in high school and on the EYBL circuit. Her versatility and mindset will help our team tremendously next season."
