Maggie Mendelson (Red/White Volleyball scrimage)

Watched the volleyball Red/white scrimage last night. 

Man, they are now even more loaded with high level talent. Can see why Cook says it's hard to pick the starters. Hord is as advertised. There must 5 or 6 that are 6-3, 4, 5.

 

Anyway,  Mendelson is very agile and mobile....especially for 6-5. National level athlete...of course. And fearless ...no fear about the setting she was in. If she has those kind of basketball skills and instincts....she could very well make us a different basketball team. Bringing that championship vibe to our basketball team is priceless.

 

After watching her live...I'm sold.

Watched Maggie play last  night vs Ohio St.   Ohio St. is largely upperclassmen.  NU not so much.  OSU's experience showed at times. They're nationally no. 6 or 7 ..or so. 

But we won in 5. 

 

Maggie really is getting up to speed. Was playing great defense. Cook left her in a lot, because of her play.

She's really the young pup of the team. ....a high school kid.  You could tell she was overwhelmed a bit when the season started, but now...certainly not so much. She's earning her stripes quickly. .....Impressive.

 

That's really going to help her start fast in basketball.  Just hope she stays with basketball.

KInd a see Maaggie as a combo forward/post. She's way to mobille to sit in the lane. 

 

Unless she's way behind the basketball curve..........it's very hard to see her sitting on pines very much.  But she'll miss most of the preseason more than likely.

So, Coach Amy will have a real nice problem. What do you do with a 6-5 extremely athletc, No 32 in nation basketball recruit ?...That has recently played on a national women's H.S. basketball and volleyball teams...and..... just finished her first season playing on the nationally ranked NU volleyball team

 

:)   That's me smiling for Coach Amy and her problem !
