Wanisha Smith chooses Duke

The Duke women's basketball team received its third commitment for the

class of 2008 on Tuesday, as high school senior Wanisha Smith announced

her decision to play for the Blue Devils.

Smith, a 5-foot-11 guard from Washington, D.C., averaged 21.5 points,

4.5 rebounds and four assists last year as a junior at Riverdale

Baptist High School. Her extensive high school resume includes the

adidas Top Ten Camp, the Nike All-America Camp and USA Basketball's

Youth Development Festival.

The consensus top-15 prospect will share point guard duties with

current sophomore Lindsey Harding and help to fill the void when three-

year starter Vicki Krapohl graduates in 2004.

Smith, who grew up playing basketball in Ohio with Blue Devil freshman

Brittany Hunter, chose Duke over Maryland, Florida and Notre Dame.
