Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 1948298, member: 6620"] [B]NJ Press Report: Dara Mabrey goes for 33 in early-season match-up....[/B] ...for her #1-rated Girls HS team in NJ, Manasquan, over the #6-rated Red Bank Catholic Caseys (yes, that is their knickname, one of the coolest in NJ, IMHO), 66-62. Due to pre-Xmas lunacy, I was not able to see this one, but I know the Star-Ledger reporter and he's not prone to that much hyperbole. Dara had three 3-pointers and a number of drives and free throws. She seemed confident and hot, after hitting her first few shots. I like the quote she gave about working on her game all summer. Yes, she did score half of her team's points. That's unusual in that 'Quan is loaded with potential collegiate players, most notably forward Faith Masonius, pesky point guard Stella Clarke and transfer Lola Mullaney. Ms. Masonius, a board favorite and Class of 2019 target, had a double double. Lola Mullaney is a talented transfer from Colts Neck who makes this team even stronger and Stella Clarke (do all the Marlon Brando's on the board love that name?) is a smart distributor, pesky defender and motion machine who gets dead-ball rebounds like a hungry robin gets worms after a warm spring rain. :cool: Best part about this performance, I'm guessing, is that sister Marina should've been able to catch this big Shore Conference game. (There's a picture in the linked article that has her going up for a shot in which she looks just like Marina.)
