While I'm not saying a c-level high school team could beat the current UConn women's hoops teams, I understand randall's point. We had a #1 ranked in the state girls high school team when I was a freshman in high school, and as a big tune-up for the playoffs, their coach asked the freshmen boys coach if we could scrimmage them for an hour or so. We beat them by 30, and it wasn't even close.

I understand his point too & I'm not saying they'd beat every HS team in the country. But they'd beat 90-95% of them.

These women are very fast, great shooters, great ball handlers, great defenders and very athletic / big. Its not like the men would have that great of a size advantage at that age. The men would most likely be faster.. but I wouldnt under estimate UCONN's speed. and their skills would overcome the speed.

Did you know that Reggie Miller's sister used to absolutely school his ass... even when he was in HS?

we're talking High School basketball players compared to a handful of the greatest women players in the world.

It's not sexism, it is apples and oranges. Could the Little League WS winner play well against a high school team? Of course not....Congrats to Uconn but Gino is an idiot in his comments.

I dont think UCONN women could compete with any men's college team.

High school is a whole different story. like those fruits you mentioned.

I think the one adjustment that most women have difficulty making in playing against guys is the larger basketball.

Just out of curiosity, what year were you a freshman in high school?
