Multiple dozen girls from Washington’s 2021 class recently signed National Letters of Intent to secure the next step in their basketball careers. In the following week, further recruitment news has come about with a couple of 2021’s committing, as well as an early 2022 commitment. <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Wyatt Headed to Denver!</strong></span></h3> 2021 5’8 SG [player_tooltip player_id="48029" first="Joclyen" last="Wyatt"] (Wilson HS) recently announced her commitment to the University of Denver. Wyatt will fit in really well to Denver’s uptempo style of play where she can make plays in the open court and turn defense into offense. She plans to sign with Denver in the Spring signing period. A nice pickup for Denver. <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Mt. Spokane With Another Commitment</strong></span></h3> The last four years have been very friendly to the Mt. Spokane program with at least one or more college commitment for the last several years. The latest is 2021 6’0 PF [player_tooltip player_id="82934" first="Jaimyn" last="Sides"] who announced her commitment to Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston, Idaho. The 6 foot lefty will provide some physicality in the paint with the ability to defend the 4 or 3. She is a very good shooter from 15-18 feet. <h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>First 2022 Off the Board</strong></span></h3> Recruitment for the class of 2022 will be more difficult than maybe any graduating class in history. College offers for many will be harder to come by and there is a ton of uncertainty from colleges with seniors having an extra year of eligibility at their colleges. The abnormal recruitment in the 2021 class is projected to cause a wild transfer portal as well. Players in the 2022 class taking the offer(s) they do have is definitely the safe and smart option in some cases. Washington’s first player in the 2022 class announced her commitment this week. 2022 5’10 SG [player_tooltip player_id="230592" first="Natalie" last="Fraley"] of Kelso High School announced her commitment to Utah State via social media. Fraley has good length, versatile skill and two more years to prepare for her college debut.
