Newberry College Athletics

Tiffany Johnson Chaplin ended her Newberry career as one of the most dominant post players to ever don the Scarlet and Gray. Her career totals speak for themselves. She still tops the Newberry record book in each of the following categories: total rebounds (1,167 – 3rd in SAC history), rebounds per game (11.00 – 2nd in SAC history), blocks (225 – 3rd in SAC history), and blocks per game (2.12 – 4th in SAC history).  Her 1,310 points scored are seventh in Newberry history.

An Abbeville native, Johnson Chaplin ranks in the top five in eight Newberry single-season and eight single-game categories, including 81 blocks as a senior in 1999-2000 and nine blocked shots in a game vs. Queens in 1999. For her efforts, she was named second team all-South Atlantic Conference during her junior season, when she averaged 14.5 points and 12.4 rebounds per game, shot 56.4 percent from the field, totaled 72 blocks, and averaged 30.0 minutes per game to lead the team in all categories.

She is the only Newberry player in the last 20 years to average a double-double in multiple seasons. Johnson Chaplin accomplished the feat three times in her career, including 15.5 points and 11.1 rebounds per game as a senior. Her rebounding average ranked 12th nationally while her 2.9 blocked shots per contest ranked seventh.
