SiouxVolley Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 Und got a verbal from Grace Sawatzke from Monticello, ranked number 15 in Minnesota per the publication I have linked above. Two UND recruits in top 20 so far. Mostly Gopher, Marquette, Creighton, Iowa, Iowa St recruits, with two UND, one NDSU, and an SDSU in top 20. Mostly forwards in late teens left to sign. Quote
UND Fan Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I have seen Bailey Strand listed as 5'7", 5'8" and 5'10" - anyone know her correct height? I see UND freshman, Erin O'Toole, has a sister who is a good BB player as well. Quote
Hambone Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I was able to see many of Brianna's games, from 8th thru 10th grade. I believe she started in 8th grade on varsity. Very smart and could create and dish or score if needed. She reminded me a lot of Crookston's Kamille Wahlin at the same level, like a coach on the floor. Kamille had a pretty nice career at Iowa. Brianna would look nice in UND green too! Fergus is loaded with the younger Monke girl also a senior at about 6' 3" and very talented. Her older sister plays at Wisconsin Green Bay. I talked to some Fergus friends who said both Rasmusson and Monke have been getting looks from D1 schools. [ Sounds like Rasmusson is going to NDSU to play volleyball. Quote
jdub27 Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 I believe Strand, Swatzke and Buckley all signed their NLI's yesterday. Quote
SiouxVolley Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 I believe Strand, Swatzke and Buckley all signed their NLI's yesterday. Also signed a post, Jordan Meyer, 6'2", Anoka. http://www.startribune.com/sports/231682521.html?page=6&c=y Quote
jjensen Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Does anyone know anything about Hana Metoxen from Apple Valley, MN. I believe she is a junior this year for eastview. Pretty sure she was at the womens basketball game today. Quote
UND Fan Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Metoxen is a 5'11", Jr. She starts at forward for Eastview. The team is 15-0 and No. 1 in the state. I couldn't locate current stats but it appears she is averaging about 10 points/game. That isn't bad considering the team is loaded with talent. Quote
jjensen Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I will always be a fan of und recruiting players from a winning school. Love the attitude they bring to a team. Quote
Risky Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 UND basketball commit Bailey Strand from Fergus Falls had 33 points last night to lead Fergus to another state tournament appearance. She should be a real good one. She can really score the ball as they say. Quote
UND92,96 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 UND basketball commit Bailey Strand from Fergus Falls had 33 points last night to lead Fergus to another state tournament appearance. She should be a real good one. She can really score the ball as they say. Strand scored 23 points today to lead Fergus Falls into the MN 3A semi finals. UND recruit Grace Sawatzke will be playing later today in another 3A quarter final. Both players have a chance to contribute next year IMO. Strand averaged about 21.5 ppg this year, while Sawatzke averaged 16.5 ppg and over 4 assists per game. Both have over 2000 career points. Quote
UND Fan Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 92,96 - I was about to post almost word-for-word the same post as yours. I agree - I think these two ladies can help us immediately. Especially Strand, FF doesn't have to rely on her for scoring as they are loaded - so averaging 20+ on that team is impressive! It appears Sawatzke is very talented as well! Quote
UND92,96 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I'm not sure whether this was previously posted or not, but another UND recruit, Josie Buckley, suffered a scary injury this season: http://www.leadertelegram.com/sports/prep_basketball/article_7983e872-775a-11e3-932f-001a4bcf887a.html I know the article indicates that she still plans to play college basketball, but considering the severity and nature of the injury, I have to think her status may be in question.

SWSiouxMN Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Monticello played last night and lost to Washburn. Sawatzke had 11 points and 7 boards in the loss. She had a tough night shooting Quote
Risky Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Grace Sawatzke and Monticello got beat yesterday team in the quarterfinals. She had 11 points. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Get to watch Stand today as they take on Marshall in the state semis. Its going to be a great matchup between the two teams. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Strand scored 22 points on 7-24 shooting and 8-8 from the line. However her team was eliminated by Marshall 52-51 in the Class 3A state semis. She plays one more time against Minneapolis Washburn on Saturday at Concordia St. Paul. She looks legit, likes to take it to the rack and can hit the mid range jumper with ease. Very solid at the line. Marshall's press really bothered her in the 2nd half and she looked way off in the 2nd (only 1-12 from the field, but 8-8 from the line). She will be a very good player and I expect her to be in the rotation next year. Quote
UND92,96 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Strand scored 45 points in the third place game today. Quote
UND Fan Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Maddie Guebert?? Is that a "wishful" question or do you have some inside info? Quote
UND Fan Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Guys' - let's move these discussions to either the "2014" or the "2015" recruiting threads. Quote
