There is a thread elsewhere about the great start by Va. Tech ....something like 15-1 so far.
A bit of looking back on one of their key players....Regan Magarity.
I checked a couple of games ago and she was near a double/double average...
around 13/9 a game. She is around 6'3"....a redshirt soph.
UConn connection: she is from Sweden and early in her high school years she was 'all in' on coming to the states and playing at UConn. UConn did have interest....not sure but I think Shea Ralph went to see her play during one of our
pre-season tours over there. I don't know whether Geno ever offered her.
The name 'Magarity' is one that hardcore women's fans will surely recognize.
Regan is the niece of Dave Magarity..current coach of the women's team at
West Point. Her cousin Maureen Magarity....Dave's daughter ....is the coach of the women's team at New Hampshire. Her husband...also on that staff...Brendan....is a local...played at Windsor Locks High and at Marist where he met Maureen. Maureen played at BC...then transferred to Marist.
I actually saw Maureen play in the NYS tourney in Glens Falls for Lady of Lourdes...a traditional power in NY. BTW: we have seen Julie Vianni
commentating on several women's games lately....she and her sisters also
played at Lourdes.
UNH...keep it going! In their best start in years New Hampshire is 14-3.
10-3 in non-conference play....one loss at Kentucky. 4-0 in conference play so far. It would be great to see them in The Dance. BTW: they have two transfers from Marist playing this year after sitting out last year. The Marist coach is Brian DeGeorgis [sp?]....who just happened to coach Maureen at Lourdes back in the day. Nice connection there for UNH!
UNH coming to UHart [also off to a good start] might be a game worth taking in down the road. Speaking to you, DC.
