From mgoblue.com:
The University of Michigan women's basketball program received a National Letter of Intent from 6-foot-4 center Val Driscoll on the first day of the early signing period (Wednesday, Nov. 11). Driscoll, a native of Stoughton, Mass., will join the Wolverines for the 2010-11 season.
From "wickedlocal.com":"We are ecstatic that Val will be joining us for next season," said head coach Kevin Borseth. "Val is a big, strong presence around the basket and really demands attention down low. It is something that we haven't had, and we are excited to get her into our program. Val is an extremely hard worker and an all-around good person who I believe is going to be a major contributor to our program's success."
Driscoll is a three-year varsity letterwinner at Archbishop Williams High School in Braintree, Mass. In 2008-09, she led her squad to the Massachusetts Division 3 Southeast region championship and the team claimed back-to-back Division 3 State Championships in 2006-07 and 2007-08. Driscoll led the Catholic League in scoring in 2008-09, averaging 19.4 points per game and has scored over 1,000 career points. She is a three-time Catholic League All-Star and a two-time team captain at Archbishop Williams.
Also, per kjasr.com (hat tip to mzonefan over on the umgoblue.com women's basketball forum), Michigan has a 2011 verbal commitment from Cyesha Goree of Wyoming Park high school. Goree is 6' wing forward and currently rated the #7 player in the 2011 class by michladyballers.com.For the past three seasons, anyone following girls basketball on the South Shore saw the dynamic skill set Val Driscoll brought to the court each night.
Apparently, some people out in Ann Arbor, Mich., were watching as well.
Driscoll, a 6-foot-4 senior at Archbishop Williams High School, recently accepted a scholarship to play for the University of Michigan women’s basketball team, choosing the Wolverines over a list of more than 25 other Div. 1 schools.
