Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Wednesday, December 20, 2006

Some of the country's best high school teams have been battling it out in Arizona at Nike's Tournament of Champions. As they often do, Hoopgurlz.com is offering great coverage.

Maya Moore (and UConn signee) put on a show, scoring 42 points while leading Collins Hill (Ga.) to a quarter-final victory. Elena Delle Donna, everyone's "must get" recruit, and her team Ursuline Academy (Del.), were upended by Long Beach Poly (CA) in another quarter-final. But the 6'5" center earned the attention of the New York Times.

Collins Hill will take on Archbishop Mitty (CA) (Danielle Robinson, Oklahoma bound) in one semi-final, while New York's Christ the King (Lorin Dixon, UConn signee) takes on Long Beach Poly (featuring Jasmine Dixon) in the other.
