There are a variety of players that have just blown me away
with their long ball shooting ability and some did it early in their high
school career, St Agnes star Lauren O'Connell happens to be one of them. Few
freshmen have dropped close to 10 three's in front of me and when you can shoot
the ball as effortlessly and accurately
as this young lady can, well she has definitely been a "must
see" for me over the years.
O'Connell didn't settle for just being known as a three
point shooter, she worked on her midrange and attacking the basket to add
variety and that variety has given her numerous choices on where she'll take it
to the next level and her decision is USU Eastern
I asked O’Connell on why she chose the Golden Eagles and she
said
"When I visited USU Eastern I knew it was a great fit because
both Coach Chelsey and Coach Morgan were very supportive and they both have
great experience playing at all levels.”
She also added “I love the style and type of basketball they
play at USUE and I knew it would fit well with the way I play. I'm so excited
to learn from both coaches because they are both so knowledgeable and will help
me grow as a player”
Lauren has amazed me over the years and I expect eve more
during her college career and I’ll definitely be keeping you updated
