As impressed as I was watching Victoria Blankenship play
with Corpus Christi Havoc prior to her sophomore season in high school, I was
even more impressed speaking with her after the game. Oh yeah, she was with the
right squad because she definitely created HAVOC on the court so her
transferring to North Shore for her senior season solidified my thinking they
were the team to beat in 6A Region 3 and as usual, I was correct
Blankenship was a key force averaging a double-double for
the Mustangs and the talented young lady has decided her next stop will be
Tyler Junior College. I asked Vicky B what sold her on TJC and she said “I decided to go to TJC because for the first time in my
life after moving from North Carolina to Texas and going through a very drastic
move my senior year from Corpus to Houston Coach Tillis made me feel like I
could make a home in Tyler. She sold me
on an opportunity to be myself and prosper and that's all I've ever wanted” and
trust me, this young lady has that old school mentality that NO ONE will stop
her from achieving her goals and I’m definitely betting on her
