The route Cheridene Green took into university basketball

Athlavia had no involvement with Cheridene Green. She has not used this product, is not connected to it and has not endorsed it. Everything on this page about her is drawn from the published sources listed at the foot, and cited so you can read the originals. The sentences about what an association’s rules permit are ours; they are statements about a rulebook, they are marked as such where they appear, and they are not about her.

No photograph. Roster images belong to the universities and photographers who made them.

Before university
The route Cheridene Green took, drawn as the levels she played at, in the order her sources place them.
Before university: United Kingdom. Her sources describe this in words, not as a level.
Stop 1: ASA College, Brooklyn, New York, Two-year college.
Stop 2: University of Tennessee, NCAA Division I.

Two stops: Two-year college, then NCAA Division I — from a two-year college to a four-year one. 11 of the 108 women documented here followed the same sequence of levels.

Left to right is the order the sources place her stops in. It is not a time axis: 54 of the 181 stops recorded across this site carry a bare pair of dates and the rest are prose, so the years are printed as written, in the list below.

The rows are the NCAA’s own three divisions, plus two dashed rows for everything outside them. NAIA and U SPORTS are separate associations rather than a lower NCAA tier, and nothing in these records ranks them against it; the two-year colleges sit at the foot because a junior college is an institution players transfer on from, which the records do say. The shaded bar behind each row is how many of the 110 routes documented here include a stop at that level.

The stops, as the sources record them

Printed as written. The drawing above compresses these; this list does not, because every caveat in the research lives inside these sentences.

  1. 1

    ASA College, Brooklyn, New York

    Two-year college

    Junior college

    Conference not established by the sources we read.

    approximately 2014-2016

  2. From a two-year college to a four-year one

    2

    University of Tennessee

    NCAA DI

    NCAA Division I

    Southeastern Conference (SEC)

    2016-2019 (listed as a redshirt junior in 2017-18; played 2017-18 and 2018-19)

What these levels are, and what money can exist at them

These are facts about rulebooks. They apply to everyone at that level, and none of them is a statement about her.

Two-year college

ASA College, Brooklyn, New York

Her sources do not name the association ASA College, Brooklyn, New York played in, so we cannot say which scholarship rules applied to it.

NCAA Division I

This association permits athletic scholarships. Whether any particular player received one, and how much of one, is not published.

What the rules actually say at NCAA Division I

Where she was before she left

Sevenoaks Suns in England, coached by Len Busch; played for England at Under-18 level and appeared with the Great Britain Under-20s in 2012.

What happened, in the sources’ account

Green went from a London-area club to junior college in Brooklyn, where she averaged over 20 points a game across two seasons with a best of 38 in a single game. She tore an ACL towards the end of her second junior-college season; Tennessee recruited her anyway, she sat out a full season recovering, and she went on to average 10.3 points and 8.8 rebounds per game in SEC play as a senior, with six double-doubles.

What is known about money

Athletic scholarships are permitted at NCAA Division I, where she played. That is a fact about the rulebook, not about her.

Her sources do not name the association ASA College, Brooklyn, New York played in, so we cannot say which scholarship rules applied to it.

No source we fetched states what she received, if anything.

6 of the 110 routes documented here have a source stating any financial term at all. The other 104 do not, and that is normal rather than a gap in the research: a university announces a signing as a roster addition, and what a player was offered stays between her and the programme. Read silence as silence.

What our researchers found about money

No source states anything about money.

Copied without editing. Like the checking notes further down, some of these sentences are instructions to the person writing this page rather than statements about her.

No source we fetched states that she held a scholarship at either institution, or on what terms. The Hoopsfix interview describes her recruitment and her injury and says nothing about money.

What happened since

As of the June 2019 article she had signed with a club overseas (the piece does not name it) and had just made her senior Great Britain debut, top-scoring with 19 points against Slovenia ahead of FIBA Women's EuroBasket 2019.

No retrieval date is stored against these sources, so treat anything time-sensitive — a current club, a current roster — as needing a fresh check.

Athlavia’s note on this route

Everything above is drawn from the sources. This is our editorial judgement about why the route is worth showing, and it is the only opinion on this page.

This is the junior-college route in its purest form, including the part families find hardest to hear. She is quoted saying: "A lot of people look down on it, but I didn't really care - I made the best decision for myself." It also shows that a serious injury did not end the pathway; the recruiting school stayed interested while she was injured.

This set has not been through the balancing pass, so it may over-represent Division I.

What we could not confirm

These are the checking pass’s own notes, copied without editing. They address the person writing this page, which is why some are phrased as instructions. They are published because a list of what we removed is worth more than an assurance that we checked.

What the second pass removed or corrected

  • SOURCE REMOVED. The previous draft cited a University of Tennessee athletics roster page (utsports.com/.../cheridene-green/6737). We fetched it: it returns only a page title and no readable bio content. It supports nothing and has been dropped.

What is still unknown

  • Her exact junior-college years are inferred from her arrival at Tennessee, not stated in a source we read. Write them as approximate or omit them.
  • ASA College's NJCAA division is not stated in anything we fetched. Describe it simply as a junior college in Brooklyn.
  • The SEC affiliation of Tennessee is from the Hoopsfix interview's description of 'SEC action', not from a Tennessee source; Tennessee's own pages are JavaScript-rendered and could not be fetched.
  • 1 of her 2 stops carries no conference we could establish.
  • The association her two-year college played in is not named in any source we read.

2 further notes in our file are not published here. A note is withheld when it states a date of birth or an age, names a relative, or is an internal editorial instruction about which records to keep.

Researcher’s own rating: 84 out of 100. This is the checking agent’s self-assessment, not a measurement. Across the 110 records it runs from 62 to 93, so the source count above it tells you more.
