BASKETBALL RECRUITING last year set a state record in girl's basketball and were the most by any‑ one in basketball‑mad Indiana since 1982‑83, when current UCLA head coach Steve Alford scored 1,078 at New Castle High. She's not quite at the 180‑shooting figure for her career, but as a junior she was a fabulous 187.8 by connecting on 63.8 percent from the field, 38.1 per‑ cent from three‑point range and 85.9 percent from the foul line. Like Boley, Young has played any‑ where from the one to the four. Na‑ tionally, she is ranked the No. 5 overall senior by Prospects Nation, No. 6 by Blue Star Basketball, No. 8 by All‑Star Girls Report and No. 11 by espnW HoopGurlz/Dan Olson Collegiate Girls Basketball Report. Although recruited to replace Loyd, Young has a style that reminds Mc‑ Graw more of 2010‑14 two‑time All‑ American guard Kayla McBride, a 2015 WNBA All Star. "I think the fans are really going to love watching her," McGraw said. "She can pull up and shoot the mid‑ range jumper, she's got a three, and she can rebound and do a lot of things in transition. She is a very versatile guard." Next year 's recruiting will be con‑ centrated on post players in the mold of current sophomores Turner and Westbeld. "It's not necessarily about the most talented; it's how they are going to fit with the rest of the team," McGraw said. It just so happens they usually also are ranked among the nation's elite. ✦ Practice your golf skills on the ND hitting mat! • Generous, but portable size: 20" x 17" • Ideal for driving and chipping • Removable tee that also accepts wooden tees • Variety of holes and positions to choose from • Perfect for left and right handed golfers • Cups to hold balls and tees • Convenient handle for carrying • Heavy duty base and turf for years of use • Stays in place — anchor mat in four corners with tees • Saves your lawn from divots • Officially licensed Notre Dame colors and logos ND Golf Hitting Mat BLUE & GOLD ILLUSTRATED • P.O.
