I was just watching ESPN today, and they were showing the girls mcdonald's high school all-american game. One of our incoming freshmen actually played in the game. I don't know much about the girl's team historically, but I don't imagine that we've signed many all-americans in the past. Looks like the new coach is already making an impact.
from the post: " • HIGH SCHOOLS: Theodore Roosevelt center Katrina Wheeler, who will be the only Washington area player to appear in the McDonald's All-American girls' game Wednesday, has unofficially committed to play for Georgetown, her father, George Wheeler, said.
The 6-foot-4 Wheeler helped lead the Rough Riders (23-3) to their second consecutive D.C. Interscholastic Athletic Association title this past season, averaging 12 points, 17.9 rebounds and 6.5 blocked shots."

wow, thats extremely interesting and sounds great for the program. I saw the game on but only watched for like a minute or two, now I want to see the Georgetown recruit. Great work by Coach Williams Flournoy and hopefully she can make the program a presence in the Big East. Edit: Just found a pic from last years all Met selections, she's standing in front of Jeff Green! www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/sports/hssports/longterm/allmets/winter04/basketball.htm

She didn't have that great of a game, or atleast the half i saw. But the commentators were really high on her, saying how she'll be a really big presence in the big east next year. She was extremely fast for a center. They also talked a bit about georgetown, the new coaches, and how quickly the program is improving.
