Report on 12/10 Friday game:


(Britt) Prince saw every defense imaginable as a freshman last year. At times, some of those junk defenses were effective in slowing Elkhorn North down as others struggled to put the ball in the basket. That’s no longer the case.


Bennington opened in a diamond-and-one, having one defender face-guard Prince in the half court while the others zoned up....

...


But the diamond-and-one didn’t last long, and Prince found success against every defense Bennington throwout there. She got going with 13 points in the second quarter and finished with 36 on 15-of-25 shooting. Prince has a soft touch on her floater and she’s better with her off-hand than a lot of players are with their dominant one. She only shot 3-of-10 from 3-point range on Friday, but most of the misses were right on line and she has a smooth stroke.


Prince isn’t just a scorer, though. She also recorded four rebounds, four assists (including a precise behind-the-back dime in transition), eight steals and one block. Prince is a terrific passer with a great feel for the game, and her anticipation and hand-eye coordination on defense are special as well.

I'll take Prince and/or Olson for 2024 no questions asked. Prince has the PG vision and game along with size at 5-11. By then Olson at 6-0 could become the best freshman wing in the country.

12/11

Morgan Cheli had 16 points in Mitty's tight tourney win Saturday. She might be a wing at the college level but she really is a pass first player. Made a terrific pass for a huge three late. I'd say her passing and her mobility are her biggest strengths right now.

Cheli is #33 in black.

 
Sidwell beat #1 DeSoto by 54-36 yesterday. They should be the #1 team in the nation in the next poll. I reported on their win over top-10 McNamara previously.

Are we recruiting Jadyn Donovan (2023) from Sidwell? She's a 6'0" leaper at guard and apparently very strong.

12/10

Chloe Kitts: 22 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists


12/9

Imari Berry: 29 points, 8 assists
 
Berry averaged 14.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.7 steals per game in 2020-21 on 50% shooting from the field.

She was a freshman.

Now with five seniors from last year’s team -- including four starters -- graduated, it’s her team to not only lead them on the court but in the locker room too. Her natural gift for making players around her better, love for her teammates’ success and disdain for the spotlight make her a natural leader.

But, oh man, a spotlight does she command.

The 29-point effort on Thursday was just one of several strong performances she’s already displayed early in her sophomore season. In her second game of the season, she dropped a 40 piece against Green Hill. She poured in 27 against Dickson County, and was held to “just” 17 against Northwest, one of the most experienced and talented teams in the midstate.

And she’s only getting better. Between seasons, she worked on her jumpshot and ability to drive the lane. She made four 3-pointers on Thursday and picked up seven buckets in the post, including an and-one.

She’s guaranteed to be guarding the opposing team’s best player, too.

Basketball is easy for Imari Berry - Main Street Media of Tennessee

As Clarksville head coach Brian Rush talked to his players on the bench between the third and fourth quarters between his team’s Thursday evening game against Kenwood, Imari Berry was trying to juggle a trio of rolled up towels off to the side.She could toss and catch one towel, but never any...

I am unwavering on this; My Christmas wish list is for the next couple of years, I want Cieria Tomey and Olivia Olson. Got 2 on your list, let-r-rip, who are they? Inquiring minds want to know. :rolleyes:

Since for 2023 KK Arnold is already signed, I’d take Toomey and the best combo guard out there, Mikaylah Williams to fill out ‘23. If I got MW, then I’d scale back ‘24 to either Olson or Britt Prince for a wing/guard. Hope I’m wrong but I just have a feeling Olson might stay in the Midwest.

The announcer notes that Ayanna has gotten her FT shooting up to 69% this year. That's better than the Huskies did against UCLA.
Expand ...
It's very encouraging to see her making FT shots as I think her biggest weakness is her shot. When someone can make free throws that's a good indicator she can become a solid shooter overall. She is going to need Geno badly though as her basketball IQ needs a ton of refinement. Has she even played AAU ball at all? She's playing with kids who all appear to be midgets compared to her and not even remotely capable of defending her. She absolutely needs better competition and probaby better coaching.

Does UConn have a commit or POI on Sidwell?
 
Sluconn Husky said:
Rice is there. It's possible UConn has interest in Jaydan Donovan and/or Kendall Dudley, but that's not known.

Thanks. For those who don't know, Donovan is a 6'0" jumping jack guard, rated #10 in 2023. Dudley is a 6'1" PG rated #4 in 2024. Along with Rice, that gives them 3 top-10 players over 3 classes. They are the top team in the nation.
