| Posted Feb 24/10 - Brandie Hoskins Signs with the WNBA New York Liberty! |
| Brandie Hoskins' career has been one of patience and passion. As a High School player in Dayton, Brandie was such a highly regarded player that she played in the McDonald's All American Game. From there, Hoskins took her talents to Ohio State and was an instant impact player for the upstart Buckeyes. She was a Big 10 All Freshman Team member and even made and played for the USA University National Team and won Gold in Turkey. As she rounded out her career at Ohio State, the All Big 10 performer was drafted by the Seattle Storm in the 3rd round with the 33rd pick overall. Due to injury she was unable to display her vast talents in the roster spot she earned. After attempting to prove that she was fully recovered with quality play in top level leagues like Isreal, Greece, Ukraine, and of course the WBCBL with Reebok's Columbus Hidden Gems, Brandie wondered if her 2nd chance would ever come. Well the opportunity of a lifetime has finally been placed upon this awe-striking talent as Brandie Hoskins has signed with the WNBA New York Liberty to their Training Camp roster. The New York Liberty do not do the usual "free agent camp" or the "rookie camp" like many other teams do. They bring in a very select amount players(18-20 usually) and pick their final roster from there, which makes Brandie's chances of making the team for 2010 very high. Brandie Hoskins was dominant in her WBCBL debut last season with averages of 18.5ppg 5.9rpg 4.5apg 1.9spg 59%FG 39%3pt 66%FT in slightly more than 20mins per game. This amazing signing shows the high quality of play in the WBCBL and also the realistic possibility that a top notch player from the WBCBL can not only make a living playing professional basketball overseas at various levels of play, but that a WBCBL player can truly take her game to THE top level of female basketball in the entire world......just as the great Brandie Hoskins has done. Reebok's Columbus Hidden Gems are proud to say that the WBCBL is truly a place where dreams can come true. |
