2014 Bessard decides on where she'll be playing


Rangie Bessard was always a player that I enjoyed watching, from a raw middle schooler that just simply outworked opponents to one of the most underrated players from the 2014 class which I’ve attached the “BEAST” label to. With her size and work ethic, the next level was certainly a done deal early however Bessard has taken her game to yet another level over this past summer and has shown she can play multiple positions in college. She’s also one of three BCS reasons Manvel will make a run at an area F4, maybe even Austin.

I had a chance to talk with Houston Elite’s Sean Porter regarding Bessard and he was elated about the young lady he’s had the pleasure of coaching. “Rangie is a dominant player that can play both inside and out.  Her greatest characteristic as a player is her work ethic and willingness to be a team player.  She always comes to play and has a high basketball IQ to match her God given physical attributes.  What a pleasure it is to coach a player that will run through a brick wall for her family name and the team she represents!  Minnesota University won tremendously when Rangie verbally committed to their university.”


With the commitment from Bessard, Minnesota adds another top Texan from the 2014 class as Tori Jacobs decided a few weeks ago she wanted to be a Gopher as well.
