Message: [QUOTE="Sluconn Husky, post: 2600863, member: 5089"] More on Tuesday's Haley Jones performance: [I]The bottom line is all the top programs in the nation want a slice of Jones right now, with Connecticut Coach Geno Auriemma recently attending a Mitty game, but the question that remains is who will eventually get the whole pizza pie? The answer is likely anyone Jones wants, and the way she played in a 72-45 dismantling by the top-seeded and state and national No. 1 Monarchs (26-1) of a very solid No. 4 seed Eastside only added a chapter to the drama of her eventual decision. Her 26 points, seven rebounds, five assists, five steals and two blocks could be a career game for most players, but isn’t earth shattering stats for the Jones. However, in the first quarter she outscored the Eastside team 14-11 and at the half it was Jones 23 and Eastside 21 with Mitty holding a 37-21 lead. At that point the 6-1 wing and her teammates pretty much had sealed the deal, and the total team player that she is decided to start dishing in the second half. She did make one acrobatic move in the third quarter that delighted the fans when she hit an off-balance fall away jumper with defenders blanketing her. “Haley had an incredible first half. She was fantastic,” said Mitty Coach Sue Phillips.
