2015 PG Marta Sniezek verbals to Stanford

[John Glass]

didn't see this anywhere:

Marta Sniezek a 5'7" PG from National Cathedral School in Washington DC gave a verbal to Stanford a few days ago. She is a great player in a small private school league.... might be a true sleeper

I wonder if she was ever on "Land of the Lost"...

Admission to Stanford is nothing to "snieze" at. Congrats to her and Tara.

Cathedral is an excellent school, one of the best in the nation academically.

MIL: plieze!

Depends just where in Eastern Europe "The Land of the Lost" is located. I'd bet 5 Polish chrusciki that her surname is drawn from one Slavic language or other, with the core meaning of "snow."

Russian "snyezhniy" = snowy

Russian " Snyezhinka " = The Snow Maiden

Croatian " sniezhek " = snow

Polish " snieg " = snow


This ancient word is also a cognate of many other non-Slavic Indo-European words, including words from the Germanic and Romance branches of that language family.

German " Schnee " = snow

English " snow "

French " neige " = snow

Spanish " nieve " = snow

I''m guessing that Tara will be introducing all the Stanford freshmen to "The Land of the Losers" at the next Final Four.

Yeah, but is that a great name--first and last--or what? I wish she were coming to us, just so I could say her name every game day.

Stanford had Orange at PG and one other . Stanford is a good Academic school and really good in Electronic Engineering. Uconn once was among the very best in producing "practical" engineers--ie meaning Engineers who can get the job done--not so much anymore.
Marta if you want Education--maybe Stanford--if you want education and a National Championship--you know the rest.

Her other finalists were Princeton, Georgetown and Harvard, so I'm guessing she went more towards education with a good basketball program.
