North Shore continues to impress at GHI
ADRIIANA JACKSON (DILLARD commit)
How good is North Shore? Well the Mustangs are still in m honest opinion the early favorites to get out of here and if you know my favorite saying, “the game starts at the one, well they have three next level ones in their starting line-up, Chasity Patterson, Adriiana Jackson and Tiffany Arceneaux, all are also capable of dropping 20 on you at any given time and when you have three guards that can do that, well that’s definitely a good foundation. Alyssa Okene showing beast like moments in the preseason and Kayla Mack who is simply the glue to this talented team and I mean by that is she’ll get hers in the flow and fills up the box score but to top it all off, if I gave a preseason sixth man award, Shae Jackson would definitely be it and the Mustangs biggest strength over everyone else is their depth because S. Jackson, Deja Hughes and Tre Norris would probably start for just about every other team in the area
KAYLA MACK (LOYOLA commit)
Patterson and A. Jackson simply are clicking as a small yet large one-two punch and they’re ability to know what the other will do and where each other will be are giving them looks galore and the thing about this year’s team is that it doesn’t matter who goes off and along the way as the season progresses, when you have multiple players clicking they’re going to feel they are the team to beat which is an X factor in itself. S. Jackson can do something not many players are capable of, come off the bench and go off as soon as she touches the floor but “The Shore” also has another advantage and that’s the numerous line-ups they can throw at you. Keydrenna Howard can shoot the long ball well, Madison Francis is the smallest player on the team but one of the toughest in the city and when they go small, that press is going to destroy a lot off teams, if you bring it you better be able to handle it
TRE NORRIS
This is going to be an interesting season but the few times I’ve seen North Shore have told me they will be ready and although I don’t think they’re playoff ready right now, that’s even scarier at how good they will become and if they decide to go big with S. Jackson, Mack, Okoene, Norris and Alyssa Vasquez, hey I’m telling you this team is something to see right now and I can’t wait until the run starts. Always remember the team has to stay healthy but even with that, the best team doesn’t always get out of here but the Mustangs are in pretty good shape and they have several ready to step up including Mikayla Robinson
