March 07, 2025 | Women's Basketball
IRVING, Texas – East Carolina women's basketball's Amiya Joyner and Devin Hagemann have earned postseason honors from the American Athletic Conference, the league announced Friday. Joyner earned First-Team All-Conference recognition while Hagemann was named to the All-Freshman team.
Â
Joyner, a junior from Farmville, N.C., earns First-Team honors for the first time in her career after earning a Second-Team nod last season and Third-Team recognition as a freshman in 2022-23 while being named the league's Freshman of the Year.
Â
The do-it-all forward has averaged 14.7 points and 9.0 blocks for the season while registering 50 assists, 33 steals and 30 blocked shots. For the third year in a row, Joyner has accumulated 13 double-doubles on the season—which ranks 26th in the NCAA and second in The American—and recently recorded her second career 20-rebound game. She is just the third player in program to accomplish that feat.
Â
Joyner also broke the program record for career 15-rebound games this season, now with 13 such efforts in her time in Purple and Gold. It is those rebounding numbers which have made her such a force and in 2024-25 her total rebounds and rebounds per game rank 42nd and 57th in the NCAA, respectively.
Â
Hagemann, a freshman from Detroit, Mich., has stepped into the point guard spot as a rookie and excelled. In league play she's posted 7.0 points and 2.8 assists per game and has compiled a team-best 66 total assists on the year.
Â
For a four game-stretch across January and February, Hagemann posted 25 assists in a four-game stretch, the most by any ECU player since the 2017-18 season. She has, to date, recorded five games of five-or-more assists and 17 games with multiple helpers.
Â
Joyner, Hagemann and the seventh-seeded Pirates begin American Athletic Conference Tournament play at 7 p.m. on Sunday against 10th-seeded Memphis in Dickies Arena.
