Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5045825, member: 12088"] I had drifted away from following WCBB and UConn after Stewie's second championship. Life got in the way. And then a friend sent me a link to a video of a Hopkins game with a cryptic note: "Something special here." I watched that video and I was hooked. It was from Paige's junior year, and I tracked down every video I could find. The games against Wayzata HS and Stillwater HS were particularly thrilling. When she arrived in Storrs I watched the first few games and she was even better playing against D1 opponents than she'd been against HS kids. Geno had assembled some serious talent around her, of course. But I'd never seen a freshman do that before. I mean, the game against SC practically floored me. and the Tennessee game. The Baylor game. Syracuse. This was a skinny freshman doing these things, a kid her HS coach nicknamed Olive Oyl, and she was already a dominant player in D1. [/QUOTE]
