Atascocita Too Strong For College Park


Atascocita's Rachel Arthur has been on a torrid scoring streak over the last month and she continued that shooting exhibition against College Park in which scored 8 of her 15 points in the opening period, this included 2 threes. Curtyce Knox came back from an ACL injury after only 5 months and I thought she was close to 75% in the Sandra Meadows Classic, well now she appears to be a little over 80% as the acrobatics and speed are showing little signs of a letdown.


Knox put on an exhibition of her own mostly in the second half and finished with 20. Lauren Price, the third of "The Taz" Big Three kind of filled in between as she finished the game with close to a double-double while joining Arthur and Knox by hitting a three herself.


What does this mean? Well it depends on how you look at it and as far as district, to be honest I've already given the title to The Woodlands however 6'0 freshman Anacia Wilkinson showed quite a jump from what I saw a month ago.



Using the phrase "you can't teach height" which only applies on the girls' side if you actually utilize your ability, Wilkinson is going to be a player before it's all said and done and for them to even think about having a chance to beat the Highlanders the next time around, this young lady will have to play big against Kelsey Lang, well  the "Big Three" will all have to go off as well


Alexia Standish dropped 25 for College Park who have been plagued all season by the loss of Megan Shafer to Rice and the loss of a couple transfers. At times they have looked really good but when your post, Armani Asberry, doesn't start and plays sparingly because of a virus, you have to face reality but nevertheless they put a up a solid fight and never quit. More than likely this was for positions 2 and 3 in the playoffs but I didn't expect The Woodlands to beat Atascocita last year, so.................
