Fennelly Lands Commitment

[ChrisMWilliams]

Lyndsey Fennelly is reporting that Hallie Christopherson, a prospect out of Exira, Iowa has committed and will play basketball at Iowa State.

I've seen this young lady play. A TON of potential. Should be fun to watch her develop as a post player over the years.

Where the hell is that town in Iowa?

Where the hell is that town in Iowa?

Near I-80 halfway between Des Moines and Nebraska.

Small 1A school.

Exira is in SW Iowa (just south of Audubon)

Is she 2010 or 2011?

And is she signing today? So that's 3 signee's today for Bill?

 

[rdubbs]

2010 (I believe)

 

[jaretac]

Small 1A school.

For me that is like a contradiction in terms

I know it is for 2010, but who are the other two, must of missed that.

Awesome news!! Welcome to the Twister Sisters Hallie! :smile:

Stealing from mred in another thread (and this answers my questions too):

By the end of the day, the likely signees are:
Kelsey Harris, 5'10" G from Brea Olinda, CA
Lauren Mansfield, 5'7" PG from Midland CC (TX) originally from Australia -- will have two years remaining
Hallie Christofferson, 6'3" P from Exira, IA

And Exira is REALLY SMALL. My girlfriend is from there....you could drive through the town, miss it, and not even know! Ok, that was a joke for any Exirans.

 

[rdubbs]

Can't remember the name of it but a great bar there.

 

[terryleebr]

It is a great bar by definition if you can't remember the name.

 

[bwboehm]

Uncle Jerry's I believe

Uncle Jerry's I believe

Did it use to be named something else? I thought there was a chain of them (one in Elk Horn, Exira and maybe Atlantic or Audubon?)

 

[C.John]

Glad to have you with the good guys Hallie!

No, I am guessing you had a few too many, went outside to smoke or whatever, and kept going back inside.

That or your friends were messing with you and kept putting you in the car, driving around a bit, and then coming back to the same bar.

Either way you probably had a fun and interesting night!

Oh and great news on the commit. Welcome!
