I watched Zhen and her teammates win a big game last night. Bishop McNamara played Bishop Ireton in Virginia. Ireton has Nyla Brooks and she is very good, but they lost their 2nd game to McNamara 62 to 54.
Zhen Craft is a special player in her own way. She doesn't score 20 points a game, but she does every little thing to lead McNamara. She is a phenomenal athlete who can run and jump with the best of them. Knows how to guard without fouling. She is 6'2" and she blocks shots like she is 6'6". She is constantly talking to her teammates on what to do and playing together. She is the ultimate team player.
Coach Abe is definitely going to love her, she can play man defense on any position.
The All Star games always have the best scorers, never the best defenders. I think we are getting the best all around player in the country. We will definitely be better and if we can add a couple of more talented players in the 26 class, we will make a big jump in the SEC. And then comes the 27 class with Finley Parker. Sign her with the addition of a good 26 class, and I can see a final four.

Zhen had a big night in a big game. Her team was missing their leading scorer who is the shooting guard and they were playing a very good Elizabeth Seton team out of New Jersey. Elizabeth Seton had cut McNamara lead to 2 points in the fourth quarter when Zhen took over. Zhen made a steal on the perimeter and she out ran the defense for a layup and a couple of plays later she rebounds a ball an out ran the defense and made a crossover and lays it up with the left hand. Another play she posts up with a spin move and make a reverse layup. She had several blocks and steals. Folks we are getting maybe the best all around player in the country. Can't wait to see this recruiting class at UGA. Jocelyn Faison is another all around, Aubrey Beckham included, Harissoum Coulibaly is an outstanding athlete and Meghan Yarnevich is another great player. Next year will be the start of Coach Abes greatness at UGA.

Zhen and her teammates celebrated the Private School Catholic League Championship Monday night. It was a great game and Bishop McNamara proved again that they were deserving of their number 4 National ranking. They play in one of the best league in America which includes 4 nationally ranked teams. Zhen was solid the whole night. She ended up in double figures in points plus she had multiple block shots. Bishop McNamara finished the season 25 and 1. Can't wait to see her in a UGA uniform.

It's great for Zhen and I hope that people will not expect Zhen to score 20 points. It could happen but Zhen does whatever it takes to win. She reminds me of a player that I fell in love with 40 years ago and he was James Worthy. Worthy led North Carolina to the 1982 National Championship averaging around 15 points a game and when they needed more he gave them more. Zhen did this for her team who are ranked number two in the nation right now. I was hoping that they would get a chance to play number one but I don't think that they were willing to play Bishop McNamara. I can't wait for Zhen and the other freshmen to get to UGA.
