Roger what are the rosters for the girls and boys all star east/west teams
What Happen?? Daisy Bueno stp
15 points against Cajon,
16pts. against Perris,
15pts against Monrovia,
12pts against Bishop Amat,
15 three pointers in the
elite division of the ayala tournament. That alone, not to mention other tough competition st. paul played.
tells me that she deserved all cif 2nd team.
The only reason she does not get any recognition for all area is because she plays on a team that already has 2 players on the first team and it would not to have a third player from sp make the first or second team.
And that my friend is what you call politics.
And, yes Leslie should have gotten recognition from cif, and is very deserving of receiving all area mvp, but bueno should have made at least 2nd team all area
Bueno should not have made all CIF at all. the WDN POY didn't even get any recognition for ALL CIF. That's politics for you. Bueno does deserve recognition here but not in the ALL CIF
"what happen?? Dasiy Bueno from Stp
should of made at least 2nd team ,,, a 4year Varsity player, gone to finals in 2005 something some of the other StP players never accomplished!"
Good question. She was 2nd team CIF. Should of been at least 2nd team all area
what happen?? Dasiy Bueno from Stp
should of made at least 2nd team ,,, a 4year Varsity player, gone to finals in 2005 something some of the other StP players never accomplished!
