Would be figuring out which big on the 8 teams playing there she’s there to see.


Yes, The Team List is a "Who's Who" of AAU Clubs...

..but if you click on their names, you'll see the u17 team might be elsewhere like the Philly Rise will be at the Clash of the Clubs in Dallas, where other ND coaches are, so they could see Kennedy Ume(h), if she's still a target.

Exodus, Kate Koval's club, is listed on the Iowa list, too.

As posted, one can find out easily enough who is where because the social media updates will come pouring out after each day.


If only we knew, but we won't, until late in the game, out

I see 8 clubs playing in Iowa this weekend.
KNE
All Iowa
Wisconsin Flight
Michigan Crossover

And the other side is
Midwest elite
Kentucky premier
TN flight
Mo Phenom


Games start in about an hour



If That's the Case, Focus on Kentucky Premier

Leah Macy, the forward who visited ND, plays for KY Premier. Zakiyah Johnson, the highly rated guard from that state, also plays for that AAU team, so it could be a double dip.

You're probably right about who is playing, but when I clicked on the website, I found many, many teams. Maybe that page cites who has played there.

In any case, after many years of looking at prospects, I must admit to NOT delving into exactly who is playing at what tourney pre-performance. This week, I was too busy following the "kill your young" exercise known as WNBA roster cuts. But, in general, I find the purveyors of talent-ranking websites do a good job of posting who is doing well where. Since they get paid for it, I'll follow them.

Thanks for your research and it will be fun to see who/whom Coach O was primarily watching and who else caught her eye.


Agree!

I just came back to look at your recruiting list and try and see if there was a match and it looks like Leah Lacey is who is probably being checked out.

The eybl website is tricky to navigate. For this weekend you’d need to go to session 2 Iowa 17 and click on that to get to the standing schedules and live box scores.


Through 2 Games, Macy Is Averaging 17.5 PPG for Ky Premier *

I saw Kyle play in high school many years ago.

Kyle's profile at Transylvania University says that he has 3 children, Malone, Mallory, and Meredith but no Leah.


Appreciate the Insight & Guidance

I'm not helpless when it comes to intricate webfaces, but sometimes I can get lost or not find the way. Thanks for the map.

Coach O can assess any hoopster, but with her post/big forward expertise, I'd say her eyes will be on Lacy.

This circuit is growing and becoming more competitive (among sponsors and promoters). No wonder colleges have to split their staffs up for coverage.
