Fenwick's O'Grady may not have brought home the hardware she wanted from Redbird Arena a state championship trophy. That gave her a career total of 2,536 points, ranking her among Illinois' top 20 all-time scorers. Now she'll be in the hands of Marquette. The same could be said for Sandburg's 5-9 Kustok. Zak Kustok had already made a name for herself entering her senior year, but a season-high 33 points in a victory over Fenwick put it in lights.
Evaluators love to talk about the quick feet, jumping ability and quickness up and down the floor.
But every one of those is initiated by the quickness of your eyes. Kustok, who missed three games with an elbow injury, averaged 18.6 points in helping the young Eagles put together a 27-8 record, the last loss to Thornwood in the supersectional. Sometimes a player is a player is a player. I don't have any worries about where she's going to play. Harlem's Yanni has carved out a niche so impressive that it will bring her into Theresa Grentz's program at Illinois.
