Nope, 11. Gonna need almost 20 vs Walhert.
Gotta add...Mommy told HC her daughter needed to stay in the game during blow out wins.

BTW...mommy is Stacy Frese.
You've heard of her. Hall of Famer and sister to Maryland Terrapen's HC.
Doesn’t shock me in the least. Stacy was insufferable 35 years ago when she played in HS.

Over on the other board, someone stated that during the Johnston semi-final game a TV announcer brought up Jenica Lewis's recruitment. They said that ND was her fav currently. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Jeff Linder also put out an article just a few days ago. He didn't dig into David Eickholt's crystal ball prediction with her or at least didn't report on it here.

Article Title: Johnston blue-chipper Jenica Lewis is in no rush to announce a college choice
"I don’t really have a list yet,” the highly ranked recruit from Johnston High School said ...
It’s going to come down to style of play; where I can see myself playing. How do the players handle the coach? How does the coach handle the players?"

Did Iowa show any interest in recruiting A. Jenkins from Johnston ? TIA
Good player, but the interest wasn't there with the level Iowa has been bringing in lately. Seems like a player that benefits from being taller than those around her, so it'll be interesting to see how she does again those with similar size. Reminds me quite a bit of Gyamfi.
 
Classic battle in 1a final.
St Albert CB prevailed over Newell-Fonda by 3 pts in 2OT.
Fonda has been in title game 7 of last 8 years.
Now 4-3 in those games.
Actually was a tremendous game.

I like the part where Newell-Fonda lost. :)

But also congrats to the Saintes for bringing the city of Council Bluffs it's first ever girls basketball State Championship.
