Yeah I guess beating #2,#3,#4,#6,#8,#16,#22 and #23 sucks as a body of work. Was Cal in the top 25 didn't think so. And I am quite sure you know more than I do about how SC is going to operate next year cause your kid is on the team. Your a tool and you wouldn't know crap about possession since you've been hanging out at Legends.

I would like to take the opportunity to announce that $C plays about as direct as a flight to Vegas. If you hopped on one of those kick and hope balls you could be at McCarren in like 15 minutes.

Not me. If they win and my player plays like crap or worse doesn't play or plays very little who would be happy with that? This is about my player. Even if I love the team/school at the end of the day priority número uno is my player and her happiness.
That would be cool.

An amazing pickup for USD and a big loss for the Bruins. Lou is an outstanding coach, role model and inspiration for young women. USD will be on the rise.

My DD loves Lou. I was very impressed with her as well. I remember when she coached a club squad in our age group back in the day and she was great even with those young kids.

It looks like one of her old commits switched to her alma mater. I hope that most of them stick. The one that do won't regret it that is for sure. I remember when she coached at Rampage and DMS11. She was always very kind to my player and was one of the keys to bringing in such phenomenal recruiting classes for the Bruins. She will do amazing things there.

Calling my shot, Ashley Sanchez will be a bust. Although she's got plenty of speed, she is too petite. She had a very hard time getting around defenders at the recent world cup, especially with that flick and run move she likes. She'll find similar trouble in college. Too many meaningless runs to showcase her speed imo. She'll be okay, just not that transcendent player that everybody thinks is going to be a superstar.

It will help her that she will have so much talent around her. Fleming and Pugh are beasts.

I have known Ashley since U8. My DD has played with and against her for a decade. She is 5'3", but NEVER underestimate her. She is strong for her size, extremely agile, quick, very technical and she will only get stronger when she hits the weights. Then add her to a UCLA team full of technical players such as Pugh and Fleming. Good Luck, because with those teammates it leaves her 1v1 and she will beat players 1v1.
Another player to watch for even smaller than Ashley is Kiara (Kiki) Pickett, committed to Stanford. She is a 5'0" little dynamo and plays similar to Crystal Dunn.
She was better than any other U20 player on that USA squad(except Pugh), and was 2 years younger than many of them. She will be an amazing player.
outside!

Perhaps. Then again, that team was so poorly coached it was difficult to tell if other players had talent that may not have been highlighted due to the direct style of play.
