eckroth isn't quite as offensively well-rounded as cuypers in my opinion, but i think her defense and toughness are what put her ahead of most players. she doesn't have top-notch stats, but she is a tough player and always seems to be in the mix while scoring 15 ppg and 8-10 rpg. i think her overall athleticism, especially considering she has had major knee surgery on both knees, is extremely underrated.
simply stated, cuypers does it all. i talked with the lmm coach and he said that her defense has really come along after going with steve wisnewski's (probably slaughtering the spelling there) team to hawaii. i think that lmm's late season run in the district tournament should help them out this season quite a bit.
neither player has been able to play in front of a state audience so far, and that is pretty much a shame. when steele made it to state two years ago eckroth had injured her knee and didn't get to play - scary to think what that team could have done with her playing...i think they took fifth place at the tourney played in jamestown...had they gotten into the night bracket i'm pretty sure that all of steele-dawson-wing-tuttle-pettibone-robinson...maybe even some of the sterling rowdies would have made the trip.
as far as some other girls from the rest of the state...the dakota prairie cousins, bindas from kindred, bratlien from tioga, can't think of the girls' name from new salem off hand but she is solid, neubauer from bottineau, there was a freshman from killdeer that was really good a couple of years ago but i can't remember her name.
