2011 Recruits

Re: 2011 Recruits

Any news on who it was or any other information?

Not a clue. African American woman. About Macie's size. Seemed to be smiling a lot. That's about all I could discern from the other side of Weary Wil's Sports Grill. That and the fact that Megan Waytashek looks way, way taller up close than she does on the court.

Re: 2011 Recruits

There's a potential recruit on campus today. I'm told she is a juco point guard. Sorry I don't have a name. Saw her eating lunch with the team at the union.

Re: 2011 Recruits

Doesn't seem to be much noise about the last scholarship available. I believe the coaches are now in a no contact timelime with the NCAA.

Re: 2011 Recruits

Wow, while checking on Sam Lynn, I was surprised to learn that Danielle Adams was a two time NJCAA All-American.How did hoop girlz and all those saavy Div 1 coaches miss recruiting her for two years.....guess she's one of those "hidden jems" you hear about.Hats off to Texas A&M for recognizing her talents as a "juco" player.

There are many reasons a player chooses to go to a JUCO. Not all of them go to play at that level to still get a chance to be seen by D1 schools. I certainly am not privy as to why she went the Juco route, but I would bet it wasn't because she wasn't recruited by D1 schools.

I'll go on a limb and say that as a McDonalds All American, Danielle Adams was totallly on the radar. Read in a KC Star article yesterday that she had academic issues that led her to Juco.

Re: 2011 Recruits

Yes,they are in D3 - I believe that is the division that does not offer any scholarship dollars.

I hope Sam is given a good look. I know people tend to look down on Division III in the NCAA and NJCAA because they aren't given athletic scholarships but to me, that shows how commited they are to getting an education and playing basketball.

Re: 2011 Recruits

Thanks for the article. Great honor for Lynn. I'm trying to remember, but is Minnesota West part of the D3 NJCAA level?
I believe a player from Rochester CC (same league as Minnesota West) went to UMKC a few years ago. Don't remember much about her so not sure what kind of impact she had there. If you're getting a Juco player, they need to be able to make an impact right away.

Re: 2011 Recruits

Don't know if she is one of the JUCO point guards that the Jacks are looking at,but Sam Lynn from Minnesota West in Worthington has been named a first-team All American. www.dglobe.com/event/article/id/47512/

Re: 2011 Recruits

I would guess Walters and Stuart,just because they are wing-type players,which was the position Rotert played. Also,no one knows how strong Waytashek will come back from her injury. It sounds like Clarin is more of an inside player,and there are three good ones returning - Sunnarborg,Lingle and Dietel.

Ditto.

difficult to say, but, if i had to speculate it would be that Waytashek takes a rs. don't forget Strop---i thought she stepped in and gave the jackrabbits very good minutes.

Re: 2011 Recruits

So for the 3 we have coming next year, who has the best chance to contribute right away? I am not sure 1 is head and shoulders above the rest so I would hope they all start filling in as needed. They will have a chance to earn playing time for sure.

Re: 2011 Recruits

I must make a correction,Megan Stuart and Mariah Clarin were selected for all-star teams, not all-state teams,sorry for the slip up!
