The foreign player was Ena Viso (Denmark?), we got her from Jr College for two yrs the same time USD got Jasmine Trimboli from a Jr College, if memory serves, we seemed to have established a toe hold into Wisc, as we have two more committed recruits coming in 2020 , Emily Herzberg and her HS teammate Maddie Mock.
I sometimes follow some of the local AAU girls teams to get an Idea how we fair with teams from other regions, I have to say, we fair extremely well for the most part.
Morgan Meier who was from Oshkosh Wisc also played along with Muckenhirn, 2008-2009.
Ena Viso is a native of Copenhagen, Denmark. However, you could almost call her a local recruit as she played JUCO ball with Northeast CC out of Norfolk, NE.
You have to go back to the 2008-09 season to have a pair from Wisconsin. Morgan Meier was from Osh Kosh and Ashlea Muckenhirn was from Osceola. The season before that Andrea Verdegan from Glen Flora, WI was also on the roster.
From the 2009-10 season through 2014-15, the entire roster was made up of players from South Dakota and Minnesota. Six seasons with players that were exclusively from that small of a footprint. On the GoJacks website, you can go back to the 2007-08 season to see the rosters. During these last 12 seasons, SD and Minnesota natives have dominated the roster with the following states having representation:
Iowa - 3 players
Wisconsin - 3
Nebraska - 2 (3 if you count Viso who played for Northeast CC)
North Dakota - 1
Foreign - 1
That is possible, but as the coaches were attending AAU type tourneys: it would seem that we are looking at 2020 or 2021 commitments. That could be off target assumption too. There was a plug for a team from Jackrabbit WBB and I cannot find the retweet.
Best to remember these are kids and they are doing everything they can to entertain us, be scholars, and all in all be great humans. Jackedforlife
It's not. I wouldn't hold your breath on that one, just not this programs MO. Would be nice to see but I think we are going to be thin on guards next year. Hopefully the length makes up for it. Good thing we have a top 10 coach in the game!
