Nice to get some height! That was a definite issue last year.

Looks like a couple of great players. Let the building begin.

Local girl. Played at Niskayuna. First Section 2 girl in a while. Last two did great (Julie McBride and Caryn Schoff).

Read this too fast originally - I see I missed a lot

Just re - read this post, glad to see FLJ is bringing in players she's recruited before and the info on Wood is outstanding as it is for Owens - 6' 4" & 6' 3":

Wood attended City Honors School in Buffalo, N.Y., where she was an All-Western New York Second Team Selection and the Co-Canisius Cup Player of the Year. She reached the 1,000-point milestone while a sophomore at CHS while averaging an impressive 34.0 points per game. During her junior season she averaged 25.9 points, 12.2 rebounds an added 4.3 blocks per game. As a senior, she crossed the 2,000- point threshold for her career.

Legette-Jack added. "We are building it BRICK BY BRICK! One CAB at a time!"

CHARACTER, ACADEMICS, BASKETBALL

Getting it done!

That's awesome and as I posted on the recruiting page, her brother is a potential top recruit so we need to make sure all the Owens family feel right at home in the Dome.

Great article about a young woman who is going places in life and who will make a great life and hoops mentor for the younger players!

She is a terrific young lady. Sorry playing at Syracuse did not work out.

Well this is unexpected news

Well this is unexpected news

Not really, missing 2 games early, only 10 mins against Lemoyne think she wasn't happy.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Too bad it didn’t work out - sad.

 

[MSOrange]

Hate to lose any players, but if it's a situation that just wasn't going to work, I'd rather see it resolved now than fester.

Does withdrawing save her any eligibility.

Yes, she does as she had a red-shirt yr at Md.
