this last summer at a tourney tommies played one of the top teams in "a" and beat them pretty good to. I take it you don't scout for D1 schools. We don't look for scorers, we look for defense and the tangibles(anybody can score at some point). She guarded top players in "b" last year and shut them down to less than 6 points each time(when she guarded them, total time). I remind you, our belief the coach held her back most of the season except towards the end. We have the numbers of the people she guarded and that person's season's numbers, numbers don't lie! She is 5-8 now, and can jump even higher than last year(teams are watchin her for vball to,errr) (rebounds ave really stood out at state, remember she is a guard,14 in ONE game). That was as a non starter and freshmen,by the way. After state last year in both divisions, their would be 3 players we would recruit, one we can't till next year. The reason why tommies lost to bishop is simple, never press a taller team, they pass over the top and your running back every time and they score before you can even turn around. You beat tall teams,by making them dribble in a half court game, that leads to TO's .,, side notes,in camps Shaice has played against the best, in a,b, and well like I said before, numbers don't lie. I thought the girl from HCV was one of the best , till that game, when shaice shut Taylor down, and help take over the game in OT. That and other games changed my thoughts. But without the whole team playing together, Thompson will have a hard time. Yes their are many excellent players in the state, but 2 have really stood out. We wish ALL teams and players good luck and have fun. Who is your top rated players?
