Congratulations to Nneka on a well deserved honor. Her will to win is unmatched by anyone else I've seen in my lifetime other than Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.:eek:

This honor could have not gone to a more deserving player and young lady than Nneka. I had the chance to watch her in the 5A State Championship and she in phenomenal. She carries herself with so much pride and charisma that is so uncommon for a player of her caliber. I love the humbleness in her and her little sis. The two of them together are amazing. Her parents should be proud, not only of her athletic accomplishments, but the mere fact that they have raised her to be such a caring person. I wish her all the best of luck, and Stanford is not only getting a high quality basketball player, but one of the most studious and charitable young ladies in society. Job well done, much deserving

She is a great person who happens to be a phenomenal basketball player.

I cannot be specific, but there's more coming Nneka's way!

That's awesome and couldn't happen to a better person. Can't wait to find out.
