49ers sign 6-8 women's basketball post player

The Charlotte 49ers women’s basketball team has signed 6-foot-8 post player Mireille (Mimi) Mungedi from Libreville, Gabon, to complete its 2010-11 recruiting class, head coach Karen Aston announced Thursday.

"She is a very bright student who will excel, I believe, in the classroom. In addition to that, I can’t wait to get Mimi on the court and see what her potential is and will be in basketball," Aston said. "She has so much to absorb, but how can you not be excited about the potential? Needless to say, it will be fun to watch this freshmen class grow here at Charlotte.”

Mungedi, who will be the tallest player in 49ers women’s basketball history, graduated from Nelson Mandela High School in Libreville, Gabon. While in Gabon, which is a country that is located on the west coast of Africa, Mungedi played for the Libreville Basketball Club where she averaged 12 points, eight rebounds and eight blocked shots per game.

Mungedi’s two older sisters, Kamuayna and Linda, are both students at UNC Charlotte.
