49ers sign 4 women's players, including Spears' sister

The 49ers' women's basketball program signed four players today, including the sister of men's player Shamari Spears

Olivia Rankin, a 6-foot-2 forward from Salisbury, joins guard Desiree Drayton of Greensboro Dudley, guard Hillary Sigmon from Hickory and Salisbury guard Ayanna Holmes as coach Karen Aston's recruiting class of 2011.

Drayton, who verbally committed to the 49ers early in her junior season, has scored more than 700 points in her career and helped Dudley to a state title as a sophomore

Sigmon averaged 19 points, seven rebounds, five assists and 4.5 rebounds for the Red Tornadoes last season.

Rankin averaged 9.7 points and 5.3 rebounds last season and Holmes, the MVP of the state championship game, averaged 7.1 points.

It's always good to see Charlotte pulling in in-state prospects. Congrats to Coach Aston and her staff.
