Ok,
@j66kicker, can you tell us who impressed and who disappointed? Also, which team won the heavyweight division/
Impressed:
Aaliya Edwards - Adult body and knows how to use it. High effort/energy. Was pleased to see Jaz there to watch her. We got a great player!
Latasha Lattimore - Big girl, and will fill out more. Very athletic and very skilled, and a great teammate with Edwards.
Lauren Betts - Really large frame (as in
really really large), a very skilled big, in great shape and only a sophomore - she's going to be a beast.
Disappointed:
Olivia Miles - Seemed to lack energy, and prone to shooting airballs and throwing passes out of bounds. I read that she was in sort of a 2-week lull. The disappointment was that I didn't get to see the
real Olivia Miles.
Kamilla Cardoso - Huge body, but slow and baby soft, and not in basketball shape by any means. Not as skilled as Betts, but I guess she hasn't been playing as long. If/when she gets it, look out - this is one seriously large human being.
I only snuck out to see 3 individual games / didn't hang out at the gyms all day. I didn't get to see Pao Pao, Cunningham or Ice Brady.
Two of the divisions seemed to be "heavyweight" divisions - or at least they both had big name players. One group played sort of a round robin format with preset games, which was easier to plan for. The other group played a tournament format with full consolation brackets so every team played every day. This group had more of the players I wanted to see, but you didn't know when they were going to play until late night/early morning when they updated their site. So I was happy to see the 5 players I did see play.
