Sounds like Riley’s Empire team….........does anyone know is Walker on this team

The answer is “no” to both. Only the girls mentioned by Josh are from the Hudson Valley. You can go here to see the complete rosters. http://www.longislandhoops.org/MetroClassic/2008Teams.htm

Tancredi never tried out. Playing volleyball heard she is an amazing volleyball player as well. I am not suprised.
