THIBODAUX, La. - The Lady Colonel basketball team will wrap up the home portion of the 2007-08 season Thursday, taking on Lamar in a 6:30 tip-off at Stopher Gym.

Before tip, Nicholls (6-19, 4-10 SLC) will honor seniors Kelli Johnson and Katherine Plummer for their accomplishments through their time as members of the Lady Colonels' squad.

During her tenure with Nicholls, Plummer has rewritten the record books. She will finish her career as the second all-time leading scorer (1,263) and second all-time in steals with 234. The 5-4 guard is currently the seventh all-time assist giver (268).

Johnson started nine games this season before suffering a season-ending knee injury. Prior to her injury, Johnson provided 3.9 ppg for the Lady Colonels, sinking eight treys in nine outings.

Riding high after a 78-66 home victory over Central Arkansas, the Lady Colonels look to end the season on a high note with a win over the Lady Cardinals.
