Cy Creek Players Shine On Multiple Teams

Cy Creek was well represented at the Alodia Prime Time Rising Stars Showcase last weekend. From the Cy Fair Heat, Lindsey Gendron, Ikpeaku Iwobi, both from the 2013 class along with junior Alexandria Dougherty played key roles in their game against the Houston Hoops which happened to be one of the most games of the tournament. Gendron played great defense throughout the tournament while Iwobi has the ability, drive and desire to somehow take over games in the paint at 5'8. Sharpshooter Dougherty can drop the long ball with the best of them when open and these three will play an even bigger role as the Creek makes a run at a district title in 17-5A

 


The Cougars were well represented on the Lady Fireballers as well and on yesterday I spoke about the improvement of 2014 Darianne Williams, read story.

The wild card for the Cougars has to be Dani Fielder, wait I'm sorry, Danny "Airborne" Fielder. One of the most athletic players in the 2013 class is also one of the most underrated and when I say athletic, I'm talking about she can do some things on the court like guys, now that's serious. Her mid-range game has definitely improved since I saw her as a bright eyed freshman and all of that unbridled energy has been has been harnessed and she has turned into an very good ball player. With last seasons top two teams in 17-5A going through major face-lifts,  the district may be up for grabs and Cy Creek wants their names placed in the hat
