Continue ReadingThe Hive was buzzing this past Saturday, as the Red Dirt Games took place. 46 teams took the floor in total, with Divisions as young as 4th grade in both the boys and girls divisions. I was able to check out each High School Girls team, including some talented Kansas prep players playing for the South Coffeyville Magic. The OK Swarm teams continually impress me. While they LOOK like an All-Star team, with all their talent, they play very sound and together. I know a lot of prep coaches will be happy this winter after having their players in the Swarm program.

Team Oklahoma was outmatched by a very good OK Swarm team, but Carter was a big bright spot. Knocked down open jumpers, hit a few off the dribble.
Tall, quick guard. Speeds up as she attacks the rim. Very tough to stay in front of. Constant movement on offense. I have to coach against her during prep season and just keeping her from getting into the paint is such a big challenge.
Highlights
Very quick in transition, one of those players that gets faster as she gets going and then she is too hard to catch up to. Attacks the basket well. Tremendous complimentary piece to the Caron girls, as they all play together at Field Kinley.
Highlights
Really smooth jumper, no wasted movement, gets it up quick. Scored a couple And-1’s against a big and strong Swarm team. Really talented ball handler, has three point range. Intense competitor.

Cyril guard is the hardest working player on the floor, always disruptive on defense. Never a fun night for her matchup.

Quick and smart, always a good combination. Has a nice floater once she gets passed initial defender. Defenders have to have their head on a swivel with the amount of post weapons the Swarm have, so Burk is really able to shine offensively.
