IOWA STATE AAU TOURNAMENT
Des Moines Hoover
JUNIOR ELIGIBLE D1 SEMIFINALS
IBCA SELECT RED 75,
ALL IOWA ATTACK 17s 39
What a difference a game makes. All Iowa Attack went from a 132.9 pp100 in the quarters to a 60.9 pp100 in the semis as IBCA Select dominated as much as AIA dominated Lightning Scarlet in the quarters. There was little doubt the direction of the contest as IBCA led 22-7 after one quarter. 8 IBCA players had 6 or more points led by Kionna Kellogg with 18.
IBCA had two former 2007 AIA players on the roster, but only one played. Katelyn Sunde played while Katie Schechinger had other obligations on Sunday. That isn't the only addition to the IBCA roster. Jaime Printy, who is headed to the Iowa Hawkeyes, has moved over from Iowa Elite. Printy missed out on last year's action due to a knee injury. Two players return from the IBCA 2007 edition--Trisha Nesbitt and Amber Kirschbaum. Two others have moved up from the 2007 second team---Jessica McDowell, who is headed to Northern Iowa, and Brittany Peterson.
Right away on the first IBCA possession the tone of the game was set. Nesbitt struck from behind the arc and the Red built on that lead to 9-0 before AIA managed to find the bottom of the basket. They had an 8 possession drought to start the contest. Three of their first four possessions ended up as turnovers. It was raining 3s for IBCA in the first quarter with four total made. Katie Gustafson ended up with two of the four. Meanwhile AIA only mustered two field goals the entire quarter. It was 22-7 after one.
IBCA cooled off somewhat this quarter with a 1/6 start. Again it was Nesbitt opening the quarter with a three. The hottest hand belonged to Kionna Kellogg inside with 6 points in a little over a minute. On her 10th point of the half, and 6th of the quarter AIA took a time out with the score 31-14. AIA did outscore IBCA the rest of the half, but still trailed 36-20 at the break.
IBCA opened the third quarter with a 15-5 run. Sunde delivered two consecutive long range missiles in the run. In fact IBCA had an 8/9 offensive stretch. AIA didn't have any massive drought, but IBCA was connecting on three 3s and one conventional three point play in adding to their lead.
IBCA definitely cooled off at the start of the fourth quarter with a 1/5 sequence. Catching fire for IBCA in the fourth was Riley Norman with 7 points. The final was 75-39.

IBCA SELECT RED
STARTERS
Trisha Nesbitt, Ames, 6, 7, 85.7, .286 point guard. made two 3s. moves the ball up court. good vision. in control. good communication. plays the bottom of the 1/3/1 zone.
Katelyn Sunde, Johnston 6, 5, 120.0, .400 3 point shooter. more along the corners. needs to be aware of traveling.
Amber Kirschbaum, Spirit Lake 7, 8, 87.5, .375 post, good leaper, good hands, defensively controlled the boards. scored on baseline drive. can score when hit.
Kionna Kellogg, Ames 18, 11, 163.6, .727 long, lean, lanky athletic post. more 4ish. runs the floor. delivered inside. good upside.

Katie Gustafson, South Hamilton 6, 6, 100.0, .333 perimeter player. made two 3s. nice hustle play.
Jaime Printy, Linn-Mar 13, 5, 260.0, 1.000 tall point guard. flawless offensive performance. made three 3s on the day. runs the floor. good vision. quick. defensively needs to get lower.
