Sims has previously been announced as the winner of the WBCA’s National High School Player of the Year Award. The annual award, named after DeMatha High School coaching legend Morgan Wootten, who heads the McDonald’s All-American Selection Committee, recognizes the nation’s top boys and girls high school senior student-athletes. In addition to their skills on the court, the winners of the prestigious award must demonstrate outstanding character, exhibit leadership, and embody the values of being a student-athlete, both in the classroom and in the community. Winners of the award will be announced March 10, 2010. The 2010 McDonald’s All American Basketball Games will be played on March 31 at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio. The Girls Game tips off at 5:30 p.m. ET, and will broadcast live on ESPNU, with the Boys’ Game, also nationally telecast, to follow immediately afterward. Proceeds from the 2010 McDonald’s All American High School Basketball Games will go to Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC®) of Central Ohio. Millions of dollars have been raised since the first Game was played in 1978. GIRLS (in alphabetical order) Chelsea Gray In 2008, Gray was named the California State Player of the Year. The following year, as a junior, Gray helped her team win the state championship. She has multiple MVP awards on her resume including MVP of the 2007 West Coast Jamboree, 2009 AAU National (South Carolina), 2009 Tournament of Champions in Arizona and the 2010 Compolindo Shoot-Out in Berkeley, Calif. Off the court, Gray volunteers as a second grade teacher, helps children at her church, and spends time serving food at a local homeless shelter. Gray will attend Duke in the fall. Bria Hartley Hartley is currently one of the top point guards in the 2010 class. A competitive three-sport athlete, Hartley’s basketball awards include Parade All-American (2009), Gatorade Player of the Year in New York (2009), Metro Classic MVP (2009) and multiple all-league, all-Long Island and all-state honors. In her spare time, she teaches kids at a local youth basketball league. Hartley will attend Connecticut http://fullcourt.ehclients.com/index.php/news_articles/view/mcdonalds_player_of_the_year... 4/8/2010 McDonald’s Player of the Year Finalists Announced — Full Court Press Page 3 of 9 in the fall. Kaneisha Horn Horn is regarded as one of the top players in the 2010 class. She helped her team to the Alabama 5A State Championship her freshman year and averaged nearly 20 points per game her junior year before tearing her ACL, which sidelined her for 10 months. Horn returned to the court her senior year intent on making a statement. Off the court, Horn is active in her church, helps encourage voter registration, and is involved with other youth political activities. Horn will attend Alabama in the fall. Natasha Howard Howard has received comparisons to LeBron James because of her size and shooting ability. A two- time All-Ohio selection, Howard is averaging more than 25 points and 11 rebounds in 2010. Howard recently took an active role in her school’s fundraising effort to help children in Haiti. Howard will attend Florida State in the fall. Chiney Ogwumike Ogwumike is a three-year all-state selection and is currently the top-ranked player in the 2010 class. Highlighting her many accolades on the court is a 2008 state championship. Off the court, she orgaznied a charity dance event that raised money to help stop child abuse, is a volunteer for Cypress Assistance Ministires, and she volunteers at her church. Ogwumike will attend Stanford in the fall. Odyssey Sims Sims received multiple all-state honors in 2009 and is currently the top point guard prospect in the class of 2010. Her basketball accolades include multiple all-district, all-region and all-state honors. When she’s not playing basketball, Sims volunteers her time at a local animal shelter. Sims will attend Baylor in the fall. “These ... finalists are all incredibly talented young players who understand what it means to give back to their communities,” said Morgan Wootten, McDonald’s All American Games Selection Committee Chairman, who simultaneously announced the six male finalists. “All of these players deserve special recognition for what they do both on and off the court, but only [one] will be selected as the national high school player of the year.” Originally published Wed, March 03, 2010 Reader Discussion http://fullcourt.ehclients.com/index.php/news_articles/view/mcdonalds_player_of_the_year... 4/8/2010 McDonald’s Player of the Year Finalists Announced — Full Court Press Page 4 of 9 Related Articles Future of Women’s Basketball on Display in WBCA All-America Game By Lee Michaelson Publisher Sixteen of the top high school girls’ players in the nation took center stage at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, Saturday evening to entertain a crowd of several thousand coaches and fans at the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association’s (WBCA) High School All-America Game. The event was part of the Final Four festivities of the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Tournament and the WBCA’s annual convention which is being held in San Antonio from April 2 through April 6. Twenty female high school seniors were named to the WBCA’s All-American teams, which were divided into Red and White squads for the game. Unlike the McDonald’s All-American Game, which divides squads geographically into East and West regions, the WBCA’s All-American Selection Committee endeavors to divide the talent equitably between the two squads in an effort to create teams as evenly balanced as possible, without regard to geography or the players’ current or future schools. In this case, it appears that the Selection Committee did a great job of choosing the talented teens who were honored as All Americans, but missed the mark in terms of balancing the teams. Though the White Team struck first blood on a free throw (one of a pair) by 6-5 center Karla Gilbert (A&M Consolidated High School, College Station, Texas), the Red Team dominated much of the game from the early going, leading 48-37 at the half and ultimately breezing to a 101-81 win. But for the players, the honor of being there, plus the intensity of the environment, meant more than who won or who lost. “It was such an unbelievable honor to be on the Final Four court for the first time and be in the midst of great players and have such high competition, said Stanford-bound Chiney Ogwumike (Cy-Fair High School, Cypress, TX), the White Team MVP, who described herself and fellow All-Americans as “starstruck” at being in the presence of players such as Tina Charles, Maya Moore, Jayne Appel and Kelsey Griffin. Though the prep stars didn’t get much of a chance to interact with the elite collegians, simply passing them in the corridor and knowing they were playing on the same court that would decide the NCAA National Championship this weekend was more than enough, Ogwumike, and Red Team MVP Chelsea Gray (Saint Mary’s High School, Manteca, CA), a Duke signee, agreed. “It may not have been demonstrated on the score board, but we worked hard and learned a lot by playing through adversity and trying to come back. This game was definitely a memorable experience for me.” Read Story http://fullcourt.ehclients.com/index.php/news_articles/view/mcdonalds_player_of_the_year... 4/8/2010 McDonald’s Player of the Year Finalists Announced — Full Court Press Page 5 of 9 McDonald’s Girls’ High School All-American Game: They’re All Winners! By Lee Michaelson Publisher It was a big night for Texas girls’ prep basketball in Columbus, Ohio, Wednesday, as the West beat the East, 84-75, in the McDonald’s All-American Girls’ High School Basketball Game. Texas was represented on the West squad by an unprecedented five players, including 6-2 forward Chiney Ogwumike (Cy-Fair High School, Cypress, TX), the recipient of this year’s Morgan Wooten Award as the girls’ National Player of the Year; 5-9 guard Meighan Simmons (Byron P. Steele II High School, Cibolo, TX), who was honored as MVP of the West squad; 6-5 forward Karla Gilbert (A&M Consolidated High School, College Station, TX), who put up 15 points for the winning side; 5- 10 forward Tiffany Moore (Frisco High School, Frisco, TX), who didn’t score that much but dished out four assists and grabbed a steal in her 20 minutes on the floor; and 5-8 guard Odyssey Sims (Irving MacArthur High School, Irving, TX).

  • Baylor's Brittney Griner Headlines 2012-13 Preseason 'Wade Watch' List
    Baylor's Brittney Griner headlines 2012-13 preseason 'Wade Watch' list ATLANTA (September 18, 2012) - Baylor center Brittney Griner, the 2012 State Farm® Wade Trophy winner, headlines the 2012-13 preseason "Wade Watch" list of candidates for the prestigious award, the Women's Basketball Coaches Association announced today. Connecticut leads all schools with three players on the 25-member preseason list. Five schools - defending national champion Baylor, Duke, Kansas, Nebraska and Penn State - are represented by two players each. Now in its 36th year, the State Farm Wade Trophy is named in honor of the late, legendary three-time national champion Delta State University coach, Lily Margaret Wade. Regarded as "The Heisman of Women's Basketball," the award is presented annually to the NCAA® Division I Player of the Year by the National Association of Girls and Women in Sport (NAGWS) and the WBCA. The preseason list is composed of top NCAA Division I women's basketball players who best embody Wade's spirit from 18 institutions and eight conferences. A committee of coaches, administrators and media from across the United States compiled the list using the following criteria: game and season statistics, leadership, character, effect on their team and overall playing ability. Notre Dame's Skylar Diggins, Delaware's Elena Della Donne and Georgetown's Sugar Rodgers join Griner on the preseason list for the third straight year. Alex Bentley of Penn State, Carolyn Davis of Kansas, Stefanie Dolson and Bria Hartley of Connecticut, Chiney Ogwumike of Stanford and Odyssey Sims of Baylor are making their second appearance on the list.

  • Administration of Barack Obama, 2012 Remarks Honoring the 2012
    Administration of Barack Obama, 2012 Remarks Honoring the 2012 NCAA Women's Basketball Champion Baylor University Lady Bears July 18, 2012 The President. Thank you. Everybody, please have a seat. Welcome to the White House, everybody. And congratulations to the Baylor Lady Bears on their undefeated season and second national championship. There are some proud Members of Congress who are here today. We've got a bunch of proud Texans in the house. I want to thank all the outstanding young women who are behind me and the coach for making my bracket look good, at least on the women's side. [Laughter] I picked Baylor over Notre Dame, but I have to say, I wasn't the only one. It wasn't that hard. [Laughter] Because if there's one thing to describe this team, it was "dominant." Last season, the Lady Bears scored more points than any team in women's college basketball history. They became the first team ever—men's or women's—to win 40 games in a season. Now, this is not to say that success came easily. After a tough loss to Texas A&M in the Elite Eight last year, the Lady Bears decided they weren't going to go through that again. So they buckled down, they spent all summer in the gym, and they have not lost since: not to the Aggies and not to anybody else. [Laughter] So obviously, a lot of credit goes to Coach Kim Mulkey. This is Coach's fifth national championship—she just—she likes to win if you haven't noticed.
