Hey Blake!
Andra and Ossining play at Hudson Valley Community College in Troy this Friday at 1:15! They play Our Lady of Lourdes of Poughkeepsie. They played in December and Andra scored 51 points in a 20 point Ossining win. That said, the game was single digits at half time and Ossining pulled away in the third quarter. Lourdes seems confident and Ossining's coach is cautioning this could be a tough game. Hope we get a nice UConn turnout!

Monacan's next game is the Virginia quarterfinals on Thursday at 2:30. I was planning on going, hoping that the game would be in Richmond. But, alas, the next 2 rounds are in Salem, near Roanoke, which is twice as far (4 hours each way). The championship game will be in Richmond on March 10, but I will be away then. Darn!!

I might try to go to the Jordan brand game instead.

Charli C moves so well for a 6'5" post player.........she looks to have trimmed down too..............getting ready for those UConn practices a year early..........and only a junior so there's more to come..............

Max Preps now has the Ossining game with Lourdes down as this Thursday night at 8:15. Let me call Ossining on this as I can assure you yesterday Max Preps had it down as Friday. I also want to confirm it is in fact at Hudson Valley CC as on their website they have the women's games starting on Friday. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[Ouremblem]

Okay, my bad! Ossining is playing downstate Thursday night at the Westchester County Center at 8:15. We'll have to wait a little longer for Andra in Troy.

There are some UIL games scheduled for television this weekend. I hope Collier's team makes it far enough for its game to be televised.

Wesleyan cruised 63-31 on Tuesday to reach the state semi-finals.

Mikayla Coombs led the way with 23 points.

Wesleyan was led by senior guard Mikayla Coombs, who scored 16 of her 23 points in the first half. Coombs also finished the game with six rebounds and five steals.

“The great thing about Mikayla is that she forgets about the last shot and moves on to the next one,” Azar said. “She plays really hard. She’s a great teammate, passes the ball real well and can score it, too, when we need her to.”

We have tended to focus on what next fall's newbies and transfer will bring to the Huskies ... then I get a reminder of Charli Collier and it gets crazy , in a very good way.

I've just got a feeling about this kid. A little under the radar coming in with Walker, similar to Collier coming in with KLS and I've got a hunch that she's physically and mentally tough.

She's uber quick, something like a shorter version of Tiffany Hayes or Kalana Greene.

What will Lexi, Andi, and Megan do when they draw only single coverage?

Here's my plan: We get Lexi. Three years later, we get Myra. If Lexi gets in foul trouble her senior year, she and Myra go into the locker room and change jerseys. No one, including the officials, will ever know.

 

[MilfordHusky]

She's not at that level--yet--but she reminds me a little of Brit Hunter with her face-up game. Geno, CD, and Marissa will make Charli into a great player.

Charli reminds me of Akeem. Megan reminds me of Magic. Crystal Dangerfield reminds me of Norm Nixon. Lou reminds me of World B Free. Lol. They all remind us of someone other then themselves lol. Good grief. SMH

Crystal Dangerfield reminds me of Sugar Ray Leonard.

Salem--VA hospital there, as well as Richmond--but they sent me to Martinsburg, Wva. I live 2 hours from Ronoake and 2 from Richmond---specifically where in Richmond is the Championship??

Where did she play Basketball/?/ With a name like that--she'd be a knock out..
Danger with those arms--and speed--may have given Sugar Ray a run for his money.

Any one that reminds you of Britany Hunter---has to be exceptional. Ms Hunter was so good--GENO allowed her to say when and how long she'd play---which says 2 things--Hunter was very good and Geno while intelligent in her usage, was compassionate.

If she had not been so severely injured, what might have been. When she could play Brittany brought moves and speed to the low post that were singular.

 

[donalddoowop]

When did she play?

I'm pretty sure Brit would have been on at least one Olympic team, maybe two or three.
