I was watching a hockey game years ago when a player completely faked out his defender. The sportscaster exclaimed, “Wow, someone left some lingerie on the ice!”, lol.

Strong's new running mate. Not gonna be a skinny, hesitant freshman. She's built, skilled, and confident.

Blanca looks bigger than I expected, at least 6'2" judging from the pic with her standing next to Sarah. To be as quick as she is at that height is something special.

Playing against pros helps - a lot

Yes. It may be the market that GA needs to work extensively to compete with the big money schools handing out all the NIL cash.

The Spanish text refers to her as "Blanquita" -- I love that! We'll have to remember that when referring to her in Boneyard posts next season.

A good match against the excellent Famila Wuber Schio team, one of the 8 teams still alive in the Euroleague. If you look at the box score, you'll see Dorka Juhasz and a player from the French national team, Janelle Salaun, who was one of the starters in the most recent Olympic final. Their league is currently on location for 3 weeks, which may explain its presence in the U.S.

On Friday, Blanca has a rematch with top team in her league. She is going against Dorka again. She blocked one of Dorka's shots last time.

Bobby, those are some very positive and insightful comments - I'm stoked.

 

[Bone Dog]

From the clips I’ve seen, she’s a good defender with quick hands. She runs the court well in transition. And she can make shots. I haven’t seen enough to really make a judgement on her offensive skills, but her athleticism is reminiscent of Aubrey’s. That alone will make her a great partner for Sarah.

Any info on why she waited so long? Did she want to do a visit first? Did she sign during the early signing period then? I thought there was some rule they had to wait until spring or summer to sign if they don’t during the early signing period

No idea on most of your Qs, however the spring signing period is April 16 - May 21.

Great Stats!! Thank You. Dorka's team 82, Blanca's team 73 with
Blanca being a stat stuffer with 21 points in approximately 30 minutes
before fouling out. She does a little of everything. NICE!

Blanca showed up in her game yesterday. She competed against players signed with the Mercury, Lynx, and Valkyries and scored 21 points and had 5 rebounds. How many hs recruits can do that?

Actually attacking the defense with some creativity instead of trying to avoid it? Pump fakes and reverse spins? No wonder Auriemma said it's different. Gimme some of that.

 

[Zarathustra]

Blanca is VERY elusive. Speed, agility, and no defender
should feel safe in front of her when she GOES DOWNHILL!
A "must see" video/highlight IMHO.
