Athlete: Volleyball – Basketball – Softball

Kim Eproson-Dyer attended Linden High school from 1982 to 1986. During her time at
Linden High, Kim earned nine varsity letters in Volleyball, Basketball and Softball. In
Volleyball, Kim earned two varsity letters and during her senior season, helped lead the
Lady Lions to an Mother Lode League championship, was named to the All-MLL first team
and was chosen the league’s Most Valuable Player. In softball, Kim earned four varsity
letters as a catcher and outfielder and was selected to the All-MLL first team three times
following her sophomore, junior and senior seasons.

But Kim’s true calling was on the basketball court where she enjoyed her greatest success at
Linden High, earning three varsity letters. During her sophomore season, she played an
integral role as the Lady Lions won the MLL championship with a 14-1 record and a spot in
the CIF Section playoffs. In her junior year, Kim elevated her game to another level and
finished the year as a member of the All-MLL first team and was the league’s Most
Outstanding Player. The year was capped off with selection to The Record’s All-Area first
team. As a senior, by then a seasoned veteran, Kim averaged 26.3 points per game, 4 assists
per game and 5 steals per game. Kim was once again selected to the All-MLL first team, was
the league’s Most Outstanding Player and to The Record’s All-Area first team.

Upon graduation from Linden High, Kim was awarded the Eugene Short Award given to the
senior student/athlete who has demonstrated the most outstanding athletic and academic
accomplishments during their time at Linden High. Heavily recruited to play basketball,
Kim accepted an athletic scholarship to Fresno State University. Following her freshman
year, however, she felt that Fresno State was not the best fit and transferred to the College
of Southern Idaho. At C.S.I. she enjoyed great success helping the team to the 1988-1989
region championship. Her efforts on the court earned Kim a spot on the National Junior
College Athletic Association second team.

After graduating from C.S.I. with an Associates of Arts degree, Kim transferred to California
State University Los Angeles and played her final two years as a member of the Golden
Eagles basketball team, earning an All-California Collegiate Athletic Association first team
selection in 1990. Kim completed her education by earning a Bachelors of Arts degree from
