Here are a few tidbits on the three guards ISU signed in the early recruiting period:
1. 5-8 Becca Schrimpscher of Eatonville was the co-player of the year in her conference, and was named second-team all-state by the Tacoma News-Tribune.
2. 5-7 Blaire Brady of Issaquah lost half of her season to a knee injury. She averaged 11.6 pts, 5 steals, 2 assists and almost 6 rebounds a game before going down 13 games into the season. Her team was 9-4 when she got hurt.
3. 5-10 Justine Joudrey of Evergreen finished 15th in the state in scoring, averaging 17.8 points a game.
The Bengals will be extremely deep at the 1-3 spots next fall, with Kaela Oakes, Lindsey Reed, Sheryl Bitter and Kara Jenkins all returning, Abbyee Maracigan fully healthy and these three freshmen coming into the program. Upfront, Ash Vella and Chelsea Pickering return as starters, Cydney Horton and Jessica Jensen will have a year of experience and a chance to get stronger under their belts, and Seton is out beating the bushes for JC talent. The Bengals should be a lot of fun to watch once again.
