Terryuana Godwin: On & Off The Court
June 02, 2015 | Women's Basketball
When did you start playing basketball? When I was six I started playing at the LaGrange Recreation Center.
What coach had the greatest influence on you? I would say Coach Jan Jones, my high school coach. She helped me realize that the game of basketball is much more than just dribbling and playing.
Is there something about basketball that just came naturally? I've always been able to get to the basket and make a layup.
What is your greatest attribute as a basketball player? I think it's my speed and quickness.
What's your favorite part of playing basketball? I enjoy meeting new people and since I've been on three different teams in college, I've met a lot of new people and made a lot of friends.
Do you have any pre-game superstitions? I have to pray.
If basketball had "walk out" music for starters, what would your song be? "Here Comes The Boom" by Nelly.
What is your favorite road trip memory? My first two road trips - Ohio State and Georgia Tech -- so I guess I'd say...winning!
What's your most embarrassing basketball moment? When I was playing rec league ball we had the rip-away warm-up pants. One game, I forgot to have my game shorts on underneath my warm ups.
In 10 years I would like to be...a pharmacist.
On Campus:
Dining Hall go-to item: The Philly steak sandwiches at ECV.
Favorite professor at UGA: Kenneth Jacobs, who teaches my Math 1060 class. He talks to all of the students in the class and really makes sure we all have a clear understanding of the concepts we're working on.

My favorite non-women's basketball UGA athlete is...Isaiah McKenzie... just because he's small.
