Parker as a junior took home the rest of the POY awards (Naismith/Gatorade/USA Today). Hunter actually participated in the dunk contest and was the first girl to ever do so but failed to complete any. It's hard to say how good she would've been....she was ranked #1 but her HS class was incredibly weak. The main standouts of that class were Tiffany Jackson, Jessica Davenport and Ivory Latta. For #1 recruits, I don't think she was ever viewed as a particularly strong #1 recruit but she obviously would've had a much much better career if she stayed healthy and could've been a difference maker for either Duke or UCONN if healthy from 2004-2007. It's just hard to assess her since we really never saw her play healthy. Compared to someone like Ralph, we saw how good she was for much of her career playing healthy and then saw her reduced quality of play once injuries took their toll. [/QUOTE]
