Edwards looks alot like Tina Charles to me

I think Charles was more of a pure post player whereas Edwards is a bit more versatile. I liken JE to a mixture of Aaliyah Edwards and Swin Cash in terms of type of player.

Is she as good as Ono was as a high school senior? Do you expect her to play much her first two seasons?

Any idea what kind of competition Del Rosario is playing against there in NJ?

Not sure about this season because of COVID but TCA usually plays a pretty good schedule which includes best in NJ Private (Masaquan, St. John Vianney, Blair ) and private schools as well as NYC area schools.

Thanks. That would be really good for her. The big kids especially really need to be pushed. I have to believe UConn has been on her for awhile and '23 would be a good time for another aircraft carrier.

Keep in mind that ONO was recovering from knee surgery during her senior year of HS. If you were to compare ONO's junior year to Amari's I say the player were quite comparable with ONO having a slight edge because of the level of competition and based on performance at USA basketball. I think Amari will play some as a freshman and average about the same number of minutes ONO did as a freshman ~14 MPG and will be just as productive. She will be third in the post rotation behind ONO and AE IMO.

No. 5 Olivia Nelson-Ododa healing and mulling

Sidelined since January with a knee injury, Olivia Nelson-Ododa, the No. 5 senior prospect, is hoping to get full clearance to return to the basketball court soon. But first she's looking long-term and closing in on a college decision.

I think she'll become Liv's back up at the high post to allow Aaliyah to start at the PF/4 next year.

DeBerry is going to be another 6’5 jump shooter, she’s definitely more of a forward then a center. In the game above she looks like a willing passer, and she can rebound and go straight back up, sometimes Liv brings the ball down and ends up getting it blocked or turning it over.

I was watching some videos of Jenica Lewis from the June 2020 thread. Anyone have any updated videos of her? She’s fun to watch and UCONN is her dream school. How old now 14?
15? Thanks...,,,! Wowser!

Hopefully we are all around to see her at UCONN but she's HS class of 2026.

What I like is she's wide in the hips. That is a great advantage around the rim. Tougher for defenders to reach around, tougher to get around, helpful in backing up defenders and helpful in your drop steps. Nice to see her shoot pullups as well. Nicer to see her hit them though.

Not bad, but last night it was #1 vs #2:

Untouchable at the top: SJV surges past Trenton Catholic to defend No. 1 ranking

Madison St. Rose led St. John Vianney with 28 points, including 20 in the first half.

Geno's face while watching these 30-ft threes and behind-the-back moves would be something to behold: wow....this kid is impressive! she's got some Paige in her...

I feel like Ducharme is going to be a Morgan Tuck to Azzi's Stewie for us. Stewie got all the attention and rightly so but Morgan was a workhorse and without her don't think there would have been as many championships. Azzi will get all the attention but I bet Caroline will be glue and keep it all together using her versatility.
