I noticed that, too, but only because the Trib's recent Anna Prins story, in which Alexis's keen passing abilities are prominently mentioned, lists Alexis's height at 5-7.
My long-ago newspaper background tells me the Trib is too small to employ a sports-only copy editor, so the story possibly made it's way through a universal copy desk where editors do not have specific sports knowledge and weren't able to catch the discrepancy. (The "6-0" figure must have come from the press release announcing the award.)
But, maybe I've got it wrong. Won't be the last time.
You're sure Alexis did not have a growth spurt in the last year? Maybe she was 5-7 when she committed to
ISU and today she's 6-0? Young men see such growth spurts, how common is this for young women?
Regardless, the 2008 and 2009
wbb recruiting classes are looking darn good. Now, if Anna Prins decides that the Cyclones are the basketball family for her, wow. . . .
