Tia Andrew brings veteran Clemson grit and efficient frontcourt value
In the 2002-03 season, Clemson forward Tia Andrew was a steady, low-usage contributor who played 21 games, started 6, and produced 1.8 points and 2.9 rebounds per game while shooting 45.8% from the field and 62.5% at the line[3][8]. Her appeal is not box-score flash; it is size, functional rebounding, and dependable minutes in a rotation, the kind of older frontcourt presence coaches trust when they want defense, physicality, and fewer mistakes[2][3].
