They are good, no doubt, but it's their little point guard, I forget her name now - Sara?? - that makes the rest of them better. When she is sitting out, that group isn't nearly as good. I know that group won the 9th grade tournament last year as 8th graders, but thats a little misleading - most teams have their good 9th graders moved up either to soph or jv or sometimes v. I'm not taking anything away from them, they are definitely good players. I would say at least that point guard will get some varsity minutes. Along those same lines, I believe South has a very good group of incoming freshmen as well.

I believe you are talking about Sophie Kenney. She is a good ball handler. Also, Sadie Rivard and Nicole Carew from that group could see varsity time, but at the start it may be limited. They are still fairly little and will get pushed around in varsity games unless they get stronger. As the year goes on they will get the experience they need to be successful at the varsity level but right away Shanley won't have much of a bench.

You can't take anything as far as wins and losses out of summer team camps. Half the time each team either doesn't have their whole team there, or are playing kids that are going to get cut later on, or the game would be played differently in the season when coaches can prep for games and have their entire off/def packages incorportated and a game plan set up to stop a particular team and/or player, or will have younger kids moved up into more prominant roles, etc. etc. Summer ball is good for coaches and parents to see who can and can't play, nothing else. Now, this isn't to say dl can't beat south in the regular season - obviously privratsky is the best player in the edc and can very likely single handedly defeat teams or at least keep her team in every game

I totally agree... summer ball is to find out who can and can't play, coaches usually give everyone equal playing time and play girls that will either get cut or wont play during the season. I do think DL will be good, Ashley will make her teammates better. Shanley, South, Red River and DL will be top 4... West Fargo will be down from last year.EastGuruWannabe wrote:2424 wrote:shanley is weak in guards and great in posts, south has haring stroup and anstad for returning to run their show, dl is weak in posts but still managed to beat south at msu tourny with a.p. running the show.

Look forward to many thinking the west is way better again. After going through that all last year maybe Shanley will get a little respect this year.
