March Recruiting Thread

[Cornell Lt]

1) On the west coast
2) Be the face of the program
3) It was once a great program and she wants to help return it to that lofty status

 

[Mdoggie]

1. Her intended major?
2. Possibly play with JuJu (the real deal)
3. Trojan pride. Fight on! It’s BIG in SoCal.

Is that a visit or a commit?

Looks like another home visit.

Out of the 8 schools left why would Breya ever consider USC? Least like to dance in March the next few years. I don’t get it. Thoughts?

I know it’s not a commitment, but there are usually 3 or 4 head scratchers every year.

True. Not all ball players choose a school because of basketball.

PLAY OF THE WEEK


Big-time players make big plays in the biggest moments, and there is nobody in their right mind who would dispute the fact that Olivia Olson of Benilde-St. Margaret’s is a big-time player. The #1 prospect in the Prep Girls Hoops Class of 2024 – some would say #1 in the nation among sophomores – has come up big before so it should not be surprising that she would do the same to keep BSM’s season alive. The Red Knights section 6AAA semifinal vs Orono was a back-and-forth battle. The Spartans had a terrific game. They played really fast and shot lights out, led by junior Kayla Kallenbach who was bombing threes from everywhere. Orono survived a 16-0 BSM run midway through the first half and put together a 14-2 streak of their own to close the opening period tied at 33-33.


With Orono leading by four and under four minutes remaining, Olson hit a fadeaway jump shot. Less than a minute later she followed that with an end-to-end dash to score at the rim. One minute later she did the same thing again to tie the game at 66. Then, with under 20 seconds left Lauren Knudson elevated to the basket in an attempt to put Orono into the lead, only to see the ball bounce off the rim and out. That was the opening Olson needed as the lengthy guard sprinted up the court, drew a horde of defenders as she closed in on the target, and calmly slipped the ball through traffic to teammate who was waiting at the back door. Sierre made no mistake, the ball rolled through the cylinder with five seconds left, and Benilde won the game 68-66. Yep, Olson is big-time.

The Week That Was #15: The best of sections | Prep Girls Hoops

Week one of section play is in the books and it was interesting as always. We attended two games in person, watched a half dozen more online and perused the box scores religiously as always. There were two contests on Saturday that generated the most buzz during the Week That Was #15, so we...

Prince, who averages 24.2 points, is also a top recruiting target. She has more than 20 Division I offers and many of the Wolves’ games have been attended by coaches from these schools:


Duke. UConn. Maryland. Oregon State. Georgia Tech. Minnesota, North Carolina. North Carolina State. Nebraska. Creighton.

...

And her game is still progress, the coach says.


“Her defense has improved, and so has her passing,” Ann Prince said. “She’s also been more of a vocal leader and has added confidence in herself and her teammates.”

God help me!!! My ears are bleeding!! Too much recycled information. Hamilton noooooooooooooo!!!!

3. Trojan pride. Fight on! It’s BIG in SoCal.

If JuJu and Cunningham choose USC, they will be pretty solid. Those two, Gayles coming next year, Marshall and clarice A frosh this year. 2 top 5 recruits, two top 10 recruits and a top 20. They’d be solid.

 

[HopJim]

If you look at the smiles on the UConn players, you would never go elsewhere.

 

[Hayven]

I don’t know why some of you are surprised about the Cunningham-USC interest. May have posted on past threads that she and Juju were heavily interested in USC

I’ve stated many times. I fully expect Watkins and Cunningham to stay on the West Coast. Any of UCLA/USC/Oregon would be my guess. There is one more player but I can’t remember the name.

I would think Chloe Briggs will stay out there too. Somewhere close to Hollywood.

Briggs to Stanford is my prediction.

Prince would get a home game at Creighton every year if she chooses a Big East program. Just sayin'!

Briggs. That’s the one. I knew there was one more that pops up on the board that I’ve heard is likely to stay out west.

I believe Ciera's team is scheduled to play Wednesday.
You know....UConn has some nice downtime before our next game. My bet is that the staff will
be out and about looking at targets...heck...even if Ciera is doubtful for Wednesday I wouldn't be surprised if a
UConn coach showed up to watch her play...or if not...just to show her some love.

Fingers crossed for a healthy C tomorrow night.
