Tall Women's Basketball Camp

Jenna and Cara returned last Wednesday from an intense four days at Pete Newell's Tall Women's Basketball Camp held at CSU Monterey. They drilled from early morning until late at night and came home with tired bodies. They attended with 60 "tall" high school girls from throughout the United States. (You must be over 6' to attend). They learned some new post moves and were selected to demonstrate moves on a training video. On to SD Classic!
