Some Georgia Southern Lady Eagles shared a court with Claxton Elementary students this week when the story of a star basketball player became the literary focus for kindergarteners and first graders. As part of the federal program Reading is Fundamental, funding is provided for students to receive books three times a year, said Phyllis Anthony, media specialist. For the last book distribution of the year, Anthony invited the GSU women's basketball team to celebrate in the reading event.
