Cluess Camp

Seemed like a really nice week for the girls. Stone, Woody and Caroline who played Lightning AAU last year attended the Tim Cluess President's week camp at Island Garden. Tim Cluess coaches the CW Post men's team and they've been really good in Div II the last few years. The girls played a lot of basketball, made a bunch of new friends and seemed to have a very nice week. Stone hit three three pointers in a row to win $50.00! Woody won something where she got a bunch of sour candy as the prize... which she shoved in her mouth all at once.

Defender 2 drops down to either defend the opposite low block or the wing if a skip pass is thrown. Defender 1 defends the high post area. Defender 3 can either sink in to stop penetration or apply pressure b...
