Welcome Back Cassandra Brown | OneFortyOne Pioneers

Soon after announcing the re-signing of American import Haleigh Reinoehl the great news keeps coming for the OneFortyOne Pioneers with the re-signing of experienced 190.5 cm Canadian Cassandra Brown for the 2023 NBL1 season.  This is exceptional news for the Pioneers, with both 2022 international signings having recommitted for the 2023 season.

Brown is a high performing international player who has played in leagues in Luxembourg, Sweden, Greece, Slovakia and Poland.  She has represented Canada at both Under 18s and, more recently, for the Canadian Team in the 2019 Pan American Games.  Brown has played professionally since she left University in 2015.

Head Coach Matt Sutton was ecstatic that Brown will remain part of his roster for the coming season.

"It's great to have Cassandra back; she's a true professional that brings a lot of experience to our group.

Her commitment to both ends of the court sets a standard for our team, and her versatility gives us flexibility in our line ups," Sutton said.

In her debut NBL1 season in 2022, Brown averaged 50.7% shooting from the field with an impressive 19.42 points per game, together with 7.71 rebounds per game.  In 2023 Brown will once more add extra depth to the team as an excellent offensive contributor for the team but also a strong defensive performer.
