What happened Young??


Sooo, ive been to plenty of whitney youngs basketball games, and to tell you to the truth, ive never seen them lose a game... When i got to the state championship i expected this game to be no different. I was pretty unhappy at the half when Freshmen Morgan Tuck had more points than the whole whitney young team. I felt that the only player that wanted another ring was Porsha Harris, she gave it her all. But she couldnt do it alone, the rest of the team was a slacking. But in the last 47 seconds, Coach Corry decided to throw the becnh into the game, i felt that they were playing alot more agressive than the raider,and probably should have been playingt a long time ago..Personally, i feel that this was their last chance at a ring, for a while.. Unless chanise jenkins can carry them,which i dont think she can do it alone.
Freshman Morgan Tuck scored 17 points and added eight rebounds as Bolingbrook ripped Whitney Young 53-29 Saturday in an unexpectedly lopsided Class 4A girls basketball championship showdown.

Playing in a title game for the fourth straight year, the Raiders (25-4) avenged a 2008 championship game loss to the Dolphins.

Bolingbrook jumped ahead midway through the first quarter on Tuck's baseline drive and steadily extended its lead at Redbird Arena.

Whitney Young (33-2) made just 12-of-45 from the field (26.7 per cent) and had 19 turnovers.



Mercedes Griffin and Satavia Taylor each added nine points for the Raiders while Porsha Harris led the Dolphins with nine points.

Bolingbrook has reached state five straight times and last won a championship in 2006.
