The Gatorade video:




I don't recognize her with a ponytail. She has trademark pigtails on the court.

That'll soon change. Ponytail looks more age appropriate and she'll realize that.

I glanced through the list of Gatorade POY award winners for a range of sports to see if anyone had won the award 3x. I found one basketball player listed, but not for basketball: Marion Jones, for track and field.

Whatever happened to this kid?

 

[mhshuskies]

Pointing it out was easy. It's the reading of it that was unpleasant

I have to hand it to you Orangutan, you come on this partisan board, not shy about your allegiance, posting in a good natured way but opening up yourself up to be piled on by the faithful.

Coach Shea sets the bar high! I believe that Azzi’s stats got her to 36.9, before deducting for TOs and PFs.

Pretty tough goal. Napheesa and Ionescu are in the 32 range. Gustafson is 39.75 ( )

Fudd and St John's will participate in the Geico Nationals. They play Centennial on ESPNU on Friday, April 5th in the semi finals. The finals will be on ESPN2 on Saturday.

Not sure if that's the "most prestigious HS award".

@JordyG, I just saw that I'm available Saturday morning for the GEICO championship game.

For UConn fans, as a reminder, Elena Delle Donne also presented the award 2 years ago at a Wizards game. The recipient was one Megan Walker.

EDD must be the Gatorade spokeswoman. She also presented this award to KLS in a surprise ceremony at Mater Dei High School.

I think Lisa Leslie gave the trophy to Kaleena.

Maya Moore gave it to ND's Brianna Turner and Erin Boley when they win it, as well as Mercedes Russell. I used to think that Maya would do it if the winner wasn't a UConn recruit. Now it seems that it's just EDD

Additional point on Azzi:

I’m not sure what her stats are. Can anyone find them? My guess, based on watching her, a few box scores, and some articles, is that she shot 60/45/90. She’s a born 50/40/90 shooter.

26.3 points 6.2 rebs 2.5 assists 1.9 blocks

Would you happen to know her shooting numbers FG, 3PTFG, FT?

Sometimes it just works out that a former winner is in close proximity to the current winner. Catch presented to Stewie. Lisa Leslie presented to KML. EDD presented to both Megan walker and Christyn Williams.

Centennial of Nevada with another UConn player of interest, Taylor Bigby, will also be there and will play St. John's right out of the gate.

Would you happen to know her shooting numbers FG, 3PTFG, FT?

FT 121-134 90.3%

I'll see what other numbers I can find.

Sounds about right--90+% and about 4 FTAs per game. Of the 121 makes, probably 30 or so hit the rim.

Here is a crazy way out there in the future prediction. Azzi will make the 2024 Olympic team in the summer immediately before her senior season at UCONN.

If she goes to UConn, I can see it. If she goes elsewhere, sorry, but no. Geno knows how to get players ready. By then, Azzi could be the best college player.
