The 6-foot-1 consensus national high school player of the year from Chesterfield, Virginia, says she'll be rooting hard for the Huskies in the NCAA Tournament, while thinking about what it will be like to be playing with them next March.[/I] [I]"I'm part of the team now," Walker said after picking up her Gatorade Player of the Year award on Wednesday night. "I'm wearing my hoodies, shirts. I'm posting stuff —tweets. I'm excited."[/I] [I]The class also includes 5-10 guard [B]Andra Espinoza-Walker[/B] [/I][??][I] from New York, 6-foot wing [B]Lexi Gordon[/B] from Texas and 5-10 guard [B]Mikayla Coombs[/B] from Georgia.[/I] [I]They were convinced to come to UConn by [B]Geno Auriemma[/B], who likes to ask recruits what they would do would do if they were the best singer in the world. Would they want to headline in Branson, Missouri? Or would they rather try to make it big on Broadway?[/I] [I]"Coach mentioned something similar to me about the best player in the class of 2017 having to perform on the biggest stage possible," Walker said. "That clicked with me. That this is the only way to do it, the right way to go about my career."[/I] [B][URL='http://bigstory.ap.org/article/ade495c09d1d44f3844e4384bf51dba7/uconn-star-recruit-watching-march-run-waiting-her-turn'][LINK][/URL][/B] to full article [/FONT] [INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
