Some international flavor from 2011 Class:

Esther Niamke, PG 5-5, Louisville recruit, was an All Star team and France top scorer at the 2011 U18 Euro championship. She also played at the 2010 U17 World's. France took the silver in both events.

Karly Roser, G 5-10, Northwestern recruit, played for Canada in the 2010 U17 World championship team (2nd high scorer).

Tjasa Gortnar, F 6-2, Georgia Tech, was Slovenia high scorer this year in the U19 World's championship.

Temi Fagbenle, F/C 6-4, Harvard, played for Great Britain in the 2011 U20 Euro championship, finishing as her team's high scorer and rebounder. She attended Blair Academy HS.

On the other hand, former Parade All America prospect F 6-2 Sarah Imovbioh of Nigeria is enrolled at Virginia, but has been ruled ineligible by NCAA to play the 2011-12 season, see http://www.virginiasports.com/ViewA...5&SPID=10617&ATCLID=205269039&DB_OEM_ID=17800.
Imovbioh averaged 13.3pts and 9.8reb in four prep games played in Europe by the U19 Nigerian NT, that later didn't show up at the Championships in Chile.

She didn't qualify academically and is instead playing at Lindsey Wilson, an NAIA school in Kentucky. She could transfer to Louisville in the future.

Coincidentally, Louisville opened their schedule today with an exhibition game against...Lindsey Wilson. Niamke scored 15 points on 5-15 FG with 9 turnovers as Louisville won 118-41.
 
Canadian Nirra Fields, the 2012 Class #11 prospect committed to UCLA.

She transferred to Mater Dei, Cal for her HS senior year.

Fields has been member of the U16, U17 & U19 Canadian national teams and was the tournament top scorer at the 2010 U17 World's.

I would like to see how she would fair against Brittney Griner in the NCAA if their teams ever get to play one another.

Maybe in a distant future it could be intereresting, if she improves in quickness and skills.

For the time being "Bubbles" Anderson is not even ranked in the Top 100 of her class, and in an hypothetical duel with Britt Griner in NCAA it would be a freshman vs a senior, no match imo !
 
#13 2012 prospect Brianna Butler verbally committed to Syracuse.

Thanks for the info. I thought Anderson ranked much higher than that...For sure she won't be able to match Griner not only because Griner is a senior but also because Griner is already hyped as the "next big thing" for women basketball.

That's right.

Totally out of thread, but imo it will be interesting to see the other "huge thing" Aussie Elizabeth Cambage vs Britt Griner, maybe in international bball !
 
Belgium 5-7 PG Julie Vanloo (2011 class) was signed in spring to play the 2011-12 season for Iowa State, but NCAA ruled her ineligible for this year.

Whether Vanloo will wait to play at Iowa State for the next season isn't clear.

The Belgian young star (born 1993) is one of the best European juniors, with plenty of international experience, and she's the fresh 2011 Euro Champion Div. I as well as All Tournament player.
