The progression continues as this talented group of 9th and 10th graders put on a fight in the championship last weekend in the 9/10 Grade Division but came up just short. Valerie Di Gulio did some of everything, shot it mid and long range, attacked and finished, anticipated passes and scored with both hands
Jewels Campbell is yet another that can handle the rock but her highlight is still running through my head when she cut backdoor for a reverse layup in traffic, almost in one motion. Lily Burdette's length is an asset and watching her playing the pass lane was art because after she got it, she was scoring or going to the line, she's a good FT shooter.
Marci Gabrilese doesn't realize her strength but defenders did as she just wanted the ball more many times. On top of that, she has very good timing which is an added plus. Mikal Rhoden and Tyra Nugent also came up with big plays during their run to the finals and I can't wait to see this squad again
