SKILLMAN, N.J. – Junior transfer Stephanie Brown of Millsaps College has been tabbed the 12th-ranked player in the Atlantic South Region by the ITA after her performance during the fall season at the ITA Regionals in Atlanta, Ga.

A native of Niceville, Fla., Brown joined the Majors in the fall from Liberty University (Va.).

Brown rolled to the quarterfinals of the main "A" draw as the No. 6 seed, defeating Leisy Ruddock of Rhodes and Sara Vrabec and Kirsten Hillock of Emory (all in straight sets) before losing to Lindsay Reidenbach of Emory.

"Stephanie had a terrific debut tournament," second year head coach Jay Pacelli said. "A quaterfinal finish is a great run in a difficult regional. Stephanie has the ability to be one of the best players in the SCAC this spring with her tenacious play." 

The Majors will open the 2010 campaign on Feb. 6 against West Alabama.
