Note quotes about parity in women's basketball (after game details) ... we're in good shape, competing nationally, which is what is required these days. Hook'em! https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/30/...h_180331&nl=todaysheadlines&nlid=687606910331
I heard a lot of rumors going around at the final four. I expect the Longhorns to make a big splash in the 19 class I don’t like giving names in this situation because families or kids haven’t put anything out but if what I hear is true this board will be lit up
Ashten Prechtel out of Colorado with some good numbers on the season: http://gazette.com/gazette-preps-2017-18-5a-4a-girls-basketball-all-stars/article/1623554
I believe Class of 2019 recruits are allowed to begin taking official visits this coming weekend. Not sure we've ever received an official visit from a junior since this rule was implemented a couple of years ago. Or, is that a quiet/period? I may have the dates wrong.
Outstanding season from Ashten. I really like her consistency as shown in her three year average of 15.1 ppg and 12.6 rpg. Five games this past season with 20 plus rebs is pretty good, too.
Brunelle will announce her decision on 04/15. Most everyone on the UConn board believes it will be Notre Dame.
Shemera sounds just like the kind of player Texas is looking for: multidimensional on offense, scores, rebs and gets teammates involved. Wish they had said something about her defense. Although with that kind of athletic ability, defense should be just fine.
The invites went out from USA Basketball for the U17 tryouts. There are many familiar names from the 2019-2021 recruiting classes that will compete for the 12 roster spots. The tryouts are May 24th-28th. Some of the invitees include, Celeste Taylor, Haley Jones, Jordon Horston, Rickea Jackson, Sarah Andrews, Jordyn Merritt, Hannah Gusters, Sasha Goforth, Ashten Preshtel, Caitlin Clarke and Kylee Watson.

Was hoping we'd get more confirmations (tweets) about our coaches and in-home visits. Summary of those we know: - Jaden Owens - Haley Jones - Celeste Taylor Did I miss anyone?
Prior to the start of the official visit period, Karen attended one of Jordon Horston's games. Of course she wasn't allowed to talk to her or her family. Although this wasn't an official in-home visit, it was one of the rare confirmations we have of Karen visiting a recruit. Karen always seems to have a surprise or two up her sleeve when it comes to recruiting.
