A native of Benton Harbor, Mich., Webb is a former All-State performer as a
senior in 2008 after averaging nearly 19 points, 10 rebounds and five assists
per game. Webb finished her career with more than 1,300 points.
As a sophomore at DePaul, Webb saw action in 29 games, scoring 69 points and
grabbing 33 rebounds. She was named an Big East Conference All-Academic
selection as a freshman in 2009.
Webb will sit out the 2010-11 season via NCAA transfer rules, then she will have
two years of eligibility remaining at SLU. When she becomes eligible in the fall
of 2011, Webb is expected to have an immediate impact with her ability to score.
"Courtney will have an immediate impact on the offensive end," Gray-Miller said.
"She is explosive, quick and a potent scorer. Nobody on our roster can do what
Courtney can do with the ball."
