Re: 2018 Recruits
I get a kick out of how well we play against more "heralded" teams full of "burger girls" (McDonalds All-Americans) and/or Hoop girls top 100 players.Our motto should be " you don't have to flip burgers to be on a good team",anything with the same theme.....LOL.
Disclaimer:
Not intended to be a slight against the fine hard working employees of such a hallmark eatery ,such an "American Icon" as McDonalds. To the contrary,the award itself is very prestigious and sought after and named in the honor of these hard working ,dedicated employees that make it so.I find it interesting ,incuding myself,after being away from America for awhile ,upon returning,that's the first thing people wish for is a big old McDonalds burger,fries and Coke,that's a real testament to how rooted into American culture McDonalds and all fast food Industries in general are here,and how they're taken for granted here and how much we miss them when we are away for an extended amount of time..Last edited by jackdaniel; 10-06-2016, 10:15 PM.

That position has shown more strength as Ober took over for Clarin as AJ has filled with bigger players. Clarin was athletic, but she was not able to get the blocks or impede with the wingspan Ober has brought.
