Paulina Paris 5”7 Pg 22 Team Rio 17uaa

"Paulina is a really good point guard for only being a 22. She’s able to get her team into the offense and is able to score from multiple levels. She is able to create for herself and teammates with a ball in her hand .On defense she’s a great on-ball defender and has really good hands. Another kid all college coaches should start taking a look at."
 
Kuier is extremely raw at this point! She certainly has the size, wingspan, and athleticism to be a very good player in the future, but right now, she is very raw and lacks any polish to her game. She also needs to hit the weight room and add some bulk onto her extremely thin frame.
well they already have a polish player now so thats ok

In the past few days, Sonia Citron ('21) has been offered scholarships by Clemson, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia Tech.

Great and I know we got her but did they have to wear the white with green trim. Yuck. ;)
 
I like Damiya Hagemann’s game a lot. She was teammatez with Rickea Jackson at DEPSA. So strong and plays with a lot of poise. We won’t need a 2021 PG, but someone will get a good one.

Demetre would be a really good option at the wing. Wouldn’t be shocked to see it come down to something like Stanford, Oregon, and UConn if Geno shows interest.

Anyone hear anything new about Hannah Gusters! She posted several weeks ago she would make her decision soon.
 
Anyone know why Paige left North Tartan?

My guess is North Tartan likes to replace their coaches when they get to their senior groups. Coach Starks built that North Tartan team and she's probably has had the most succes nationally out of all AAU classes out of MN.
Not all of North Tartan players followed Starks to Metro Stars.

Paige's new team has a sophomore and an 8th grader playing. 8th grader is pretty good. Check the link.

I see the UConn 3x3 women’s team of Nelson-Ododa, Walker, and Williams lost in the championship quarterfinals. Their overall record was 3-2 for a 7th place finish. Hope that’s not an omen of things to come next season.
 
Coco, which players, in your opinion, are better fits at the 3,4 positions?

1) Emily Bessior 2) Aaliyah Edwards 3) Natalija Marshall (ND) 4) Cameron Brink (Stanford) 5) Dalayah Daniels 6) Angel Reese. BTW Hannah Gusters can also play the forward position especially if Cardosa is manning the post next to her. Reese is a good very good player in a loaded class just like Hailey Van Lith is a outstanding player in a loaded class for PGs. Another example is Angela Duglic who just signed with Oregon who could easily be in the conversation for best forward in a loaded class.
 
W – Brooke Demetre (Mater Dei, Santa Ana) 6-2, Soph.

Although just a sophomore, Demetre was an overwhelming choice as the Orange County Register Player of the Year, and after finishing a close second to Kiki Iriafen of Harvard-Westlake (Studio City) for State Freshman of the Year, Demetre was not denied this season and snagged the State Sophomore of the Year honors by turning the tables and edging out Iriafen. The 6-foot-2 Demetre, who is listed as a guard but can pretty much play any position on the court, was instrumental in helping lead the Monarchs to a Trinity League title, a 2-1 record in the CIF Southern Section Open Division Pool play format that included wins over Etiwanda and a third win against CIF Division I state champion Rosary of Fullerton, and a close loss to Windward of Los Angeles, and then into the CIF Southern Regional Open Division where the Monarchs’ season ended in a loss to Clovis West of Fresno. Along the way, Demetre led a very balanced Mater Dei team in scoring at 14.6 points per game, rebounding at 6.6 rebounds a game, blocks at 1.8 per game, and was second in assists and steals at 3.3 and 2.1 per game, respectively. Not many players listed as a guard had the six double-doubles Demetre had last season for the 28-5 Monarchs.


 
More of Aaliyah Edwards' talent on display--a turnaround jumper in the post:

Not many 6-2 forwards can dribble-drive, spin, and hit turnaround jumpers while getting fouled either. This jumper turning to her right, the one above to her left.

Wanted to bring the 2020 UCONN pool of recruits into sharper focus. Corrections & additions are welcome if UCONN recruiting interest can be document.

Her ceiling is through the roof, there are things that she makes look so easy on a basketball court, that 99% of other players just cannot do.
"Her ceiling is through the roof" sounds like a structural housing problem but, hey, I get you. :)
