Terps basketball commitment game recaps
Sean Mosley wrapped up his St. Frances career over the weekend at the Alhambra Catholic Invitational Tournament at Frostburg State with a three-game, 89-point outburst.
Mosley scored 35 in the Panthers’ first-round win over Roman Catholic and 32 in their semifinal loss to Gonzaga (D.C.).
In the ACIT third-place game on Saturday, Mosley and SFA dropped a 64-58 game to Richmond (Va.) Benedictine, which was led by North Carolina-bound big man Ed Davis.
Mosley, who was named Most Outstanding Player of the tournament, contributed 22 points in St. Frances’ loss to Benedictine.
Mosley, who has signed with the University of Maryland, entered the ACIT tied for second on the Maryland career list with former Cardinals Gibbons great Quintin Dailey at 2,844. Rodney Monroe, of St. Maria Goretti, is the state’s all-time scoring leader with 3,047 points. Karcher is the fourth leading scorer in state history with 2,770 points.
• Dee Liles and her Gulf Coast (Fla.) Community College squad traveled to Salina, Kan. on Saturday in anticipation of the Commodores’ opening round National Junior College Athletic Association tournament game on Tuesday.
No. 3 Gulf Coast faces No. 14 Western Nebraska Community College at 10 a.m. tomorrow. All Gulf Coast games will be broadcast for free by WKGC-FM.

Hopefully he can keep it going next year and Williams gives him some significant mintues.

This Sean Mosley sounds like a born leader. I remember reading some of your material in the past and seeing how he had grown over 4 years, but had always been considered a leader for St. Frances from day one. Hopefully this won't cause any ego problems with Grievis Vasquez, but I think Mosley's leadership may be something that Maryland essentially needs to get itself back on the map. Although Gary's players work hard, you see the best results when somebody does decide to step up and lead the team, John Gilchrest, DJ Strawberry, and guys like these give that extra drive that makes Gary successful, hopefully Mosley and Vasquez combined can be a breath of fresh air for the Terps next season.

What is the status on Maryland woman's recruiting for 2008? Any new recruits or commitments?

Bill,
No new commitments for the Terps women. I'd expect things to heat up a bit after the tournament, and definitely once AAU gets under way.
