Girls basketball in the Lower Hudson Valley

Chambers cut by the Sun

May
17

Former Ursuline star Cori Chambers was cut by the Connecticut Sun yesterday. The move came as a surprise to the Elmsford native, but she hopes to get added by another WNBA team this season.

chambers.jpgMy colleague Tony Pinciaro talked to Chambers and Sun coach Mike Thibault and has the story.

My take: Chambers is a great shooter. She ranks No. 1 all-time at Georgia, which isn’t an accomplishment to scoff at. She’s also still young (22), so I imagine she’ll have at least one more shot to catch on. If not, there’s always pro ball in Europe.

Anyone out there have an opinion on where Cori will land next?

    ok so I guess the WNBA is just the the EMPIRE STATE GAMES! I suppose the team was already picked before the tryouts. Some of you really need a reality check!

    The conspiracy has hit the WNBA, a former WBA Lady Knick made the blog.

    I'm tired of hearing about all of these Lady Knick players and coaches.

    Can someone chime in for the Westchester Hawks please.
