2020/21 UConn Recruiting

[BobbyJ]

Jaelyn Bates is one of my favorite players. She’s fundamentally sound, plays hard, and is as exciting as heck. She has UConn interest, but not an offer yet.

Mine too. As I said in an earlier post, IMO she'll be the best PG of her class coming out of HS.

The Quest has a pretty tough quarterfinal matchup in It’sJustWork (Rickea Jackson, Kateri Poole, Cavina Rickards, and Diamond Miller). Championship game will be live streamed at 3:30(?).

Quest in OT. I think Hailey Van Lith hit the game winner.

Quest gets a chance to avenge their loss in pool play.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Final is about to start. Should be a good one against breakout star Olivia Cochran.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Cochran making an impact immediately.

Van Lith scores inside and hits a three (2-pt).

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Van Lith with another very difficult basket inside. She's very hard to stop.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Brunelle stops Cochran twice inside.

Jones scores on a smooth post move.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Not sure why UConn isn't in on Cochran, that we know of.

Great move down low to score.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Paige nails a 1-footed, fadeaway.

Then hits another tough flip shot and takes a hard fall after contact with Cochran.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Cochran's a beast. She scores and is fouled.

 

[CocoHusky]

Cochran is a beast!

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Very physical, super-tight game.

Quest in some trouble.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Van Lith hits another tough, driving shot while getting fouled by Cochran.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

The only player who can compete physically with Cochran is 5-7 Van Lith.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Paige hits a three (2-pt) but a second after the shot clock expired.

Quest down 2 with 2 minutes to go.

Cochran offensive putback. And another.

Quest badly missing Boston right now.

 

[DaBball]

Wow Cochran so strong.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Jeez. Quest goes down.

21-17

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Cochran was the clear MVP of that game though all of her team was impressive including Treasure Hunt.

 

[Orangutan]

TGB defeats Team Quest 21-17. Key shot was a 2 that Treasure Hunt drilled over Jones to break a 16-16 tie.

Gotta say Quest really missed Boston's inside presence. They struggled with the length and athleticism of TGB on the boards. Also had no answer for Cochran's physicality.

Madison Hayes was impressive for TGB.

 

[CocoHusky]

@Sluconn Husky we got to get Cochran on the UCONN radar. She's a little undersized but what a motor!

I don't think she's undersized at 6-3. Great motor, pro body, physical, and skilled.

 

[CocoHusky]

I don't think she's undersized at 6-3. Great motor, pro body, physical, and skilled.

Don't think she quite 6'3" but I'd still take her!

 

[Sluconn Husky]

I don't think she's undersized at 6-3. Great motor, pro body, physical, and skilled.

I'm finding Cochran at 6-3 but also 6-1.

She looked to be the same height as Treasure Hunt while they stood next to each other on the stage, and Hunt's listed at 5-11.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Prospects Nation has Hunt at 6-1 and Cochran at 6-3.

ESPN has Hunt at 5-11 and Cochran at 6-1.

That's helpful....

Bret McCormick has her at 6'3" and pretty much says she unstoppable on the block .

 

[Orangutan]

Whatever height she is, I would take her as a power forward. Emphasis on *power*

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Bret McCormick has her at 6'3" and pretty much says she unstoppable on the block .

Here's what a local and Georgia Bulldog supporter said about her:

Olivia Cochran and Carver wins State | Dawg Post

 

[Sluconn Husky]

My guess is Cochran's not 6-3, but maybe she just looks shorter because she's got such a thick, muscular frame.
