For our high school followers, it’ll give a glimpse into the future of some of the top names on the scene today.

JumpOffPlus.com Weekend Roundup Here's a look back at the travels over the weekend from our staff: ESPN HoopGurlz Week In Review: Senior's Moment The Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) All-America Game, played March 31 in Denver, Colo., during the Final Four weekend, features 20 of the best high school seniors in the country. The WBCA roster is nearly identical to the roster for the McDonald's All-American Game. However, there are three new names worthy of mention. espn.go.com/high-school/girls-basketball/story/_/id/7610989/wcba-all-star-game JumpOffPlus.com College Profile: Miami
I saw Miami in a early season game this year versus Tennessee. They are impressive and when their top two players, senior guards Shenise Johnson and Riquna Williams, are clicking on all cylinders very hard to defend. (Ed: The Canes have a huge match-up with No. 7 Duke tonight). JumpOffPlus.com College Team Profile: Oklahoma
I watched Oklahoma live in Las Vegas right before Christmas. Sherri Coale’s team always seem to play hard. This year is no exception. Here are my thoughts: SLAM WNBA Prospect Watch: Year of the PG WNBA Prospect Watch provides readers with a heads up on the nation’s top collegiate players. This installment focuses on three sophomore point guards who have stood out as the nation’s top floor generals in their class. www.slamonline.com/online/college-hs/college/2012/02/wnba-prospect-watch-year-of-the-pg/ JumpOffPlus.com Weekend Roundup Here's a look back at the weekend in Atlanta for various region tournaments. All rankings are current as of February 19th per ESPNHoopGurlz POWERADE Fab 50: JumpOffPlus.com College Team Profile: Duke
I saw Duke in November vs Auburn and again a couple of weeks ago vs Connecticut. Here are some of my thoughts on coach Joanne P. McCallie's team: JumpOffPlus.com College Prospect Eval: Maya Dillard
Maya Dillard’s frame and game have both grown in the four years that our staff has watched her play. The 5-foot-7 junior point guard is quarterbacking one of the state’s top high school programs. JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Peach State Battle of the Southeast
6-foot-5 post Delaney Hollenbeck from Alpharetta, Ga. controlled the paint against then-No. 41 Buford (Ga.) leading her team to a big victory. JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Peach State Battle of the Southeast
South Florida signee Shavontae Naylor (Ga.) had a go-to player kind of performance for Southwest Atlanta Christian last Saturday against Georgia High School Class AA contender East Hall. JumpOffPlus.com College Prospect Eval: Joclyn Ramos
Ramos is a tough, big game tested forward in the class of 2013. With her McEachern HS team, she has already played in games versus five nationally ranked teams during the 2011-12 season already. She’s provided a nice front-court compliment to Kayla Montgomery (Clemson signee) and Pachiyaanna Roberts (Syracuse). JumpOffPlus.com Event Preview: Battle of the Southeast
Talented class of 2013 wing Diamond DeShields will look to lead No. 13 Norcross (Ga.) to a big MLK Weekend win over a tough national opponent in No. 8 Riverdale (Tenn.). JumpOffPlus.com College Prospect Eval: Lexie Barrier
Barrier’s build reminds me of Elan Brown (Vanderbilt Jr. F/Atlanta, Ga.) while her style of play game puts me in the class of 2013 off guard Bayley Coleman-Cox (Durham, N.C.). Barrier has a solid frame and combines that with good ball skill for a guard her age.
JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Holiday Invitational - Red Division
Class of 2014 guard Alexa Middleton (TN) was a big reason for Riverdale's run to the championship game of the Red Division. JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Holiday Invitational - Green Division
The Green Division of the Holiday Invitational was full of talent from as far north as West Virginia including Top Five class of 2014 post Jatarie White from Providence Day (NC). Here's a look back: JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Holiday Invitational - Silver Division
Our Silver Division featured multiple Division One recruits including Woodstock (GA) junior guard Clara Young. JumpOffPlus.com Event Recap: Holiday Invitational - White Division
Duluth High sophomore power forward Katie Powell had one of the signature performances from the Holiday Invitational with a 30-point performance. Here is a recap of the White Division: JumpOffPlus.com Preview: Holiday Invitational - Silver Division
Bayley Coleman-Cox is fresh off of a eight 3-pointer game for her Jordan HS team. A few more of those performances could fuel her team to a championship appearance on Thursday afternoon. JumpOffPlus.com Preview: Holiday Invitational - White Division
The most talented individual in this bracket has to be junior Meagan Tucker (Alcovy HS). The left-handed guard can play the game at the point position or hit jumpers on the wing. JumpOffPlus.com Preview: Holiday Invitational - Green Division
North Gwinnett's junior forward Peyton Whitted was an Elite Basketball Academy All-American selection this fall. Her game will be on display in the Holiday Invitational's Green Division which could prove to be just as competitive as any of the brackets. JumpOffPlus.com Preview: Red Division Holiday Invitational
McEachern's freshman point guard Te'a Cooper is poised to emerge as one of the country's top players with a stellar performance in the Red Division at the Holiday Invitational. |
