Tierny Austin was SIUE’s steady two-way engine, with scoring pop and glass-cleaning grit
In the 2013-14 season, Tierny Austin led SIUE at 13.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game, a strong sign of a guard who could score efficiently and rebound like a forward when the Cougars needed it most[1]. She also showed toughness and consistency across her SIUE career, finishing with 336 made free throws and earning preseason All-OVC recognition in 2014, which points to a player coaches could trust in pressure moments[2][3]. If you want a guard who brings versatility, physicality, and a reliable competitive edge, she looks like a fit.
