Jim Mattson of WHOI Sports- Channel 19- did a great report on Brooke Bisping. She has set the Illinois state record with 52 straight free throws, and I think her incredible streak is still going!
There is a 5:10 video segment with this about the free throw streak and how she works to improve her game; it's worth watching. Brooke, currently a senior at Morton HS, will play for Bradley next year, though that is never mentioned in this report. But the work and dedication that Brooke puts into her game is amazing. She's a great shooter and will be a fine player at Bradley.

Our women should be good for a few years with the addition of her to this years recruits. Good job on the recruiting trail for the women.
 
I saw Cindy Bumgarner play- and she was a ton- tall, yet could handle the ball- play great D and shoot..

For Brooke to pass her is indeed saying a lot- looking forward to her being at BU next year-

Nice to have a fellow Potter alum stay here
 
Man...a converted barn to play hoops anytime she wants right at home! I have always dreamed of owning enough land to do this! My father-in-law is a farmer....hmmmm...would give me a reason to visit more often!

Great article on Brooke, my niece was a freshman this year and has said how much that Brooke talks to and helps out with all the players! IMO BU got a steal in this young lady!
