Well that worked out!

Game7 had a basketball camp scheduled for Glen Cove Middle School this week that got canceled. We were bummin' a bit because GraceAnne had planned to attend. The camp got combined with the Game7 Port Washington camp which we didn't think she would be able to attend because wifey and myself have to work to pay all these camp bills. Can't be in two places at once! Turns out Grace Stone and Grace Brady are going and so Grace Woods was able to get a ride! So, this morning Rikk Stone and three Grace's headed out to the Game7 Port Washington camp. Interested to see how it goes.




Also, contacted Kim Barnes Arico and Megan Duffy of St John's via email about training the girls and they haven't gotten back to me. They seemed into it when we spoke to them in person. Emailed Courtney Banghart, Milena Flores and Melanie Moore of Princeton about training, same thing no response. I know it's the heart of the recruiting season (evaluation period) for college coaches so I'm going to try them again when things might not be as hectic for them.

Defender 1 drops down to the high post area.    Ball in corner: Defender 5 goes out to guard the ball. Defender 4 slides over to defend the low post. 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...
