Samantha at the Nike Skills Academy - report from Hoopgurlz (see full story for photo)
http://hoopgurlz.com/story/nike-rsa-indy-part-i

Samantha Arnold (Medinah, Ill./Lake Park) has played most of her career on the perimeter but at 6-foot-4 she needs to keep advancing her interior game for the next level. She bounced between the guards and posts for drill work to get a taste of everything. She played hard and the area for improvement is simply playing a more physical style when she does get inside. She’s not a weak kid at all and learning to get leverage and play with contact will also help her on the perimeter. Her footwork is sound, she can make plays passing the ball, her face-up game from the mid-post is outstanding but when going one-on-one against players her size she has to get comfortable taking it right at the defense and reading their movement.

Hoopgurlz evaluated Samantha during last week's crazy spring showcase/tournament weekend:

Samantha Arnold, Chicago Hoops Express I (Lake Park HS, Ill.), looked like a top 100 player this weekend. The 6-4 forward who has verbally committed to Michigan is not a bruising interior post but her footwork is impeccable and her touch with both hands around the basket makes her a handful. Her mid-range game was equally as impressive.

I currently attend Lake Park High School and I am a big Michigan fan. I stumbled across this site and hopefully I can give you some scouting reports next season. I did not catch much of Samantha this year as I was involved with my own winter sports.

Welcome. I'm always glad to read about Michigan recruits (and prospective recruits). Mzonefan does a great job of finding & posting updates, but first hand accounts are great too.

That is awesome news! The Chicago area has been quite kind to the team in recent years (Queen & Hicks). Do you have any other players on your team that are looking at UM?

quote:
What opponents don’t want to hear is that 6-foot-4 junior Sam Arnold looks even better than she did her sophomore year — during which she averaged team bests in scoring (18.6, more than double her average her freshman year), rebounding (6.6), free-throw shooting (79.9 percent) and used her perimeter-shooting prowess to be one of the final four competitors in the Class AA Three-Point Showdown this past February.

“Sam has definitely taken it to another level — she’s stronger, smarter, more versatile, more of a leader,” Smith said. “She’s also more confident. She needed to believe in herself last year.”

She's already hit the 1,000 point mark just a couple of weeks into her junior season -

That's fantastic! I was just going to post her profile from Hoopgurlz as a prospect who had interest in U-M. And welcome. I enjoy all of your info on ChicagoSports.com. Is Samantha with your Hoops Express team?
