CARROLLTON, Ga. - As the 2026-27 season gets rolling, head women's basketball coach Joanna Reitz announced today her 2027 Signing Class, adding three players who will be first-year players for UWG in 2027-28.
Reitz signed current prep seniors Saniyah Sharper, Amirah Jordan, and Kaliyah Oliver as part of her 2027 Signing Class. Sharper and Oliver are from Georgia with Oliver playing her high school basketball just up the road at Carrollton, while Jordan comes to Carrollton from Louisville, Kentucky.
"We're excited to welcome Tootie, Saniya, and Kaliyah to our Pack," said Reitz. "They fit the profile of person, student, and athlete that we look for to join our program – high character, motivated students, and fierce competitors. Wolves' fans have a lot to look forward to when these three arrive on campus and get to work on the court."
Sharper, a Grayson, Georgia native, prepped at Archer High where she was a First Team All-Region and All-County selection as a s junior. The 5-9 guard averages 15.5 points per game to go with seven rebounds per contest. Sharper has a prep-career high of 25 points and hit seven three-pointers in a game. As she enters her senior season, she looks to become a four-time All-Region selection. Along with those All-Region honors, Sharper was also the MVP of the Sunshine Classic in 2024 and the Carolina Christmas Classic in 2025. She was also a three-point contest finalist in 2025.
"Saniya Sharper is an ELITE three-point shooter and her game fits our system perfectly," Reitz stated. "She has a quick release with deep range and she consistently knocks down shots with a hand in her face, in addition to all the other glue plays that she makes that contribute to winning. We love her steadiness & competitiveness."
An All-State selection, Jordan comes to Carrollton after what is already a stellar prep career at Sacred Heart Academy in Louisville. She has already won a trio of District Championships and two State Championships. Jordan enters her final season with over 1,700 points and averages 3.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 3.7 steals per game. Jordan, who has helped SHA to a 90-18 record in her three seasons, is a two-time All-Region selection.
"Tootie Jordan is one of the most talented point guards in her class. She can do it all – score at all three levels, create for her teammates, and defend," Reitz added. "As her high school record shows, she knows how to win & she knows how to lead. She comes to us with a high basketball IQ and is someone we look for to make an immediate impact on the court."
Oliver, a native of Villa Rica was an All-Region selection at Carrollton High School as a junior, helping the Trojans to a 25-4 record in 2025-26. The 5-9 guard scores 16 points and pulls down seven rebounds per contest.
"Kaliyah Oliver brings versatility & athleticism to our team and we love to recruit versatile athletes that can score," said Reitz. "Her game has continued to develop in her time at Carrollton High School and she has become really tough to guard because she can recognize mismatches and she's skilled enough to score outside, strong enough to score inside. We are excited to have another Trojan joining our squad, we know she'll come in a tough defender."
The trio of players signed will enroll at UWG in 2027 and debut next fall as the 2027-28 season begins.
