She is not only scoring when needed, she is making hustle plays and those plays are leading to production in the form of assists, rebounds, steals, and indirect opportunities for the those around her. I expect Brown to be another player making it to the college level one day. She will probably have to start off small and transfer after a year or two, if she wants to end up at a bigger place but the ability side of things is definitely there.

With her Bridgeport team losing some of their production from last Winter due to graduation, Brown should lead their squad in a bunch of statistical categories and their team should have a good shot to make the State Tournament. Much like years past. If everyone has taken it seriously this off-season, there is a lot to like about this group. They just need to stay locked in mentally and the rest could be history.

OB is a shifty lefty with a solid shooting stroke and an act for making something happen out of nowhere when her team’s system happens to break down.

When you combined all of that, you see the promise and know there is something good here.
