Washington, DC: November 23, 2008—The University of the District of Columbia Lady Firebirds were gracious hosts this weekend, but that didn’t let their genteel hospitality get in the way of the business at hand, as they rose to the occasion and won the 2nd Annual UDC Women’s Basketball Classic this afternoon at the Physical Activities Center. UDC’s sophomore forward Lillian McGill (Sumter, SC) was voted the Most Valuable Player in the Classic, scoring a total of 27 points and grabbing 20 rebounds to lead the Lady Firebirds to the championship.
