That coach is quite a character.........he spends as much time on the court as on the sidelines!!

I don't know.............my daughter has eaten plenty of Chicken Mcnuggets and she only averages 11 points per game.............what does AEH eat for dessert?

McNuggets haven't helped my scoring at all.

Something tells me that may have to change.

Oh, I don't know. If Kia puts a serious lock on Gummy Bears and Twislers how rigid are UConn's training table rules?

Maybe diet rukes gets less rigid for upper class man?

Hey Blake!
Andra and Ossining play at Hudson Valley Community College in Troy this Friday at 1:15! They play Our Lady of Lourdes of Poughkeepsie. They played in December and Andra scored 51 points in a 20 point Ossining win. That said, the game was single digits at half time and Ossining pulled away in the third quarter. Lourdes seems confident and Ossining's coach is cautioning this could be a tough game. Hope we get a nice UConn turnout!

Almost none of the above was true. Hope none of you went to HVCC last week.

UPDATE: Ossining does play again in a New York State regional final game at Johnson City High School on Saturday 3/11/17 at 3:00 PM.
They play the Section 4 winner Elmira High School , which is a combination of the old Elmira and South Side High Schools. They combined both schools and created one large AA school. They are not to be confused with Section 4 AA power Elmira-Horseheads. The winner tof this game will be at HVCC for a New York State Class AA semi-final game next Friday 3/17/17 at 8:00 PM. They will play either Niagara Falls or Our Lady of Mercy from Rochester. OLM is yet another private recruiting and stealing player basketball mill that has somehow been allowed to taint the Public School Tournament.

Congrats to Mikayla and her teammates! She comes to UConn on a winning streak!

Wow, epic game to finish Megan Walker's career as Walker hits the game-winning shot with 5 seconds remaining to win the state title!

Monacan was down 9 in the 4th but Walker scored 18 points in the quarter including Monacan's last 15, much of which came from the foul line.

She finished with 35 points.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Geno was in attendance for the crazy Monacan win which included King Fork getting the winning shot waved off with under a second left.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Looks like Monacan got help from the refs at the end; sure seems to be a foul there.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Walker's final high school stat line:

35 points (10-21 FG, 0-3 3pt, 15-24 FT), 11 rebounds, 6 blocks, 5 steals

If you read the entire thread I did amend that. ????

"Whose hands would the ball rather be in then mine?"

lol, she doesn't lack confidence

Looks like a possible/probable reach-in foul, but officiating is weak at all levels.

Walker's final high school stat line:

35 points (10-21 FG, 0-3 3pt, 15-24 FT), 11 rebounds, 6 blocks, 5 steals

Other than the FT shooting, it's a nice line. She's normally close to 85% on FTs.

A little lack of modesty there. Geno and CD will work with her.

Other than the FT shooting, it's a nice line. She's normally close to 85% on FTs.

Shooting from 15+ feet clearly her biggest thing to work on. She's very physical, posts up, drives, draws fouls, really good along the baseline and with the short pull-up jumper. Athletic, strong, smart. Reminds me of early Dwayne Wade.
