That's the Word

Have you heard......

Sandy Ramirez (2016) is back with the SA Islanders. Although petite like her counterparts, she brings and packs a big punch that compliments the Islanders teams. She is versatile, aggressive, quick, handles the ball well and is finding consistency in her shot. She is capable of turning a game around offensively and defensively with her relentless play. The Word is that she is at the gym training, working on her game and conditioning at least half the day everyday!

The Word is Erin Wimberley (2016) aka Winner is quietly emerging as a bona fide big in the San Antonio area and Texas to hoot, with her AAU performances against some tough competition. How is it that she can compete in a high level in the AAU circuit against level of competition superior to High School Ball? The Word is Confidence!  Hmmm...maybe her High School team should take note! She is working in the mornings to improve her conditioning and her game. Take notice, one of the most underrated players is hungry.

April Mathews (2015) and Bobbi Timmons (2016) are finally healthy again and working to add to their game. April has basically worked herself up to the Islanders Black Team. The Word is, expect big things to come! She is steadily improving to become solid like a Rock. Bobbi is on a mission. Her shot is pure and range is deadly.The Word is she continues to work on her shot and game.

What do you have when you wake up Monday to Friday around 5am to start training at 615am to 945am? The Word is Commitment! Alexia Torres (2016), Bri Lane (2016), Frankie Owens (2015), Arianna Craver (2015), Tara Molina (2016), Bri Soliz (2017), Hannah Murray (2015), Ashley Adaszczyk (2019) have been hitting it hard. The dedication and commitment these young ladies have displayed is remarkable.
Their High School coaches should take note. The word is Frankie, Bri Lane, Bri Soliz, Arianna, Ashley and Hannah are having stellar, productive AAU seasons.

Julie Hernandez (2016), Lunden Patterson (2015), Kishon Mackey (2016) are growing and showing positive signs of improvement. The Word is they all have a legitimate chance of contributing a lot of minutes with their High School teams. Gabby Bernal (2015) is helping lead her High School team to an undefeated Summer League schedule. Erin Ashley (2016) aka Awesome is slowly but surely coming back from injuries. Don't count her out in anything she puts her mind to. She is resilient and tough as nails.

In Corpus Christi, the word is two of the best young players are putting some time in the gym. Victoria Salinas is hard at work in the mornings doing conditioning and skill work plus added training in the evenings. Alexis Worley is participating in UT and A&M camps plus training in the evenings. Their High School coach should count his blessings. The sparkling city by the bay should have some players that sparkle when High School ball starts up.

Belle Tovar (2016), where is she at? The Word is anywhere the gym is available. Working and fine tuning on her game. Never satisfied, looking to add to her resume. There is never enough time... 

Tovar is  part of the starting back court with Molina and Torres leading the way, along with Ramirez and Timmons complimenting at a moments notice, having Monster performances in the AAU circuit. 

So now you have heard........ TAKE NOTE!
THAT'S THE WORD.....
