Aaliyah Chavez decision day, girls basketball awards

Welcome to National High 5 from High School on SI, a daily look at five of the country’s top, most talked about high school sports stories.High school boys basketball New Jersey

When applicable, we’ll offer texture, context and even a little opinion. Enjoy the second installment. Be sure to follow the coverage of High School On SI’s Myckena Guerrero at the McDonald’s All-American Games starting this weekend (the games are April 1 in New Jersey).

She has four names — Alexa Anahi Rodriguez Lopez — but is best known around Hillcrest High School in Dallas as ‘Mighty Mouse.’ According to this terrific video piece from nbcdfw.com, the 4-11, 95-pound senior has been a wrestling dynamo for four years and is the school’s record-holder for wins, boys or girls. The former freshman basketball player gave it up for the mat and has piled up more than 180 victories. She’s also broken down plenty of barriers, according to the report. Lopez plans to announce her college plans this week. “I’ll go out there and wrestle anybody,” she told the TV station. “I’m not scared of anybody.”

High School On SI ace Southern California writer, reporter and on-air talent Tarek Fattal shed more light on the girls game by announcing his All-SoCal squad, which featured three more McDonald’s All-Americans, including Player of the Year Aliyhana ‘Puff’ Morris, a four-year starting point guard for Etiwanda. She led the Eagles to their third straight California (CIF) Open Division championship. She’s signed to Cal. Other McDonald’s All-Americans picked were Etiwanda teammate Grace Knox, and Mater Dei 6-foot point guard Addison Deal, who is headed to Iowa. Three players from nationally ranked Ontario Christian, which beat Etiwanda in the Southern Section finals, but lost in the SoCal championship were picked, including Freshman of the Year Tati Griffin and super sophomore Kaleena Smith, the Offensive Player of the Year. Like the boys SoCal squad, so much to see here and likely future WNBA talent.California (CIF) State Basketball Championships

Not since JuJu Watkins has there been such an anticipated recruiting day in women’s sports than Tuesday, when the magnetic Aaliyah Chavez of Lubbock Monterey (Texas) announces her college commitment at approximately 2 p.m. (EST). High School On SI correspondent Levi Payton has unleashed a full-court press on Chavez’s senior season — read more stories about Aaliyah Chavez’s historic career here and here — as well his bold prediction where the 5-foot-11 point guard who averaged 32.0 points and 8.5 rebounds during her four-year career will wind up. She finished with nearly 4,800 career points, 1,300 rebounds and 800 assists.

Neuqua boys lacrosse dominates Oak Forest 19

Top-seeded Neuqua Valley boys lacrosse takes on the Oak Forest Bengals in the IHSA Sectional Semifinals. Oak Forest enters after a 14-7 win over Lockport, while Neuqua cruised past Normal Community, 18-3. A spot in the Sectional Final against Andrew High School is on the line. This highlight is sponsored by BMO.

Jonah Frank records first quarter hat trick for the Wildcats

Right from the face-off, Neuqua’s Ben Stefanski wastes no time. He wins possession and races all the way in to score the opening goal of the semifinals.

Oak Forest responds quickly—Sean Powers wins the face-off and mirrors Stefanski’s effort with a goal of his own. It’s tied 1-1 just 30 seconds in.

But the Wildcats strike back. Grant Randolph finds Jonah Frank for his first goal of the night, putting Neuqua back in front.

The Wildcats keep up the pressure. After some smooth ball movement, Randolph connects with Frank again. Neuqua goes up 3-1 with three minutes left in the quarter.

Oak Forest tries to answer with an open-net chance, but a costly turnover gives the ball to Frank, who capitalizes for his third of the game. That’s a first-quarter hat trick!

Neuqua continues to pour it on. Gavin Ostendorf sets up Stefanski, who scores again to make it 5-1 at the end of the first quarter.

Wildcats easily secure a spot in the IHSA Boys Lacrosse Sectional Finals

Second quarter, same story. Stefanski wins yet another face-off and quickly completes his own hat trick, sparking a big run for the Wildcats.

Oak Forest finally breaks the drought. David Trumbull finds Owen O’Brien for their first goal since the game’s opening moments.

The Bengals look for more. Adman McGlothin fights through defenders and buries it, cutting the deficit, but they still trail 10-3 with under a minute in the half.

With just two seconds left, Stefanski strikes again. A buzzer-beater goal caps the first half as Neuqua takes an 11-3 lead into the break.

The third quarter opens with—you guessed it—another Stefanski goal. Then it’s the Ostendorf connection: Gavin to Jonathan for yet another Wildcat tally. Neuqua leads 12-3 and shows no signs of slowing.

Oak Forest looks for one last push, but Neuqua’s defense holds firm. Owen Barth shuts the door and the Wildcats close it out with a dominant 19-3 win.

Neuqua Valley boys lacrosse advances to the Sectional Championship, where they’ll face second-seeded Andrew High School with a trip to the Supersectional on the line.
