This 5'9" junior forward averaged almost 20 points a game for Roland Park in the IAAM last season. She is set to make all IAAM for the 3rd straight season. We discussed that and some other stuff recently.

695: Who is the toughest defender you have played against in high school?
Daisy: Probably Breezi Hutchen.
695: You had a big game against St.Frances last season..how was that feeling?
Daisy: It felt really good, it was definitely a big accomplishment of the season last year. They play good defense so it was nice to score all those points.
695: How was the summer with the Stars?
Daisy: It was good. I enjoy playing with them. We played a lot of out of state tournaments against tough comp but we pulled through.
695: Do you have any hobbies besides hooping?
Daisy: Yeah ,I run track and field in the summer along with basketball, and I play soccer too.

695:I heard you were a huge Justin Bieber fan...
Daisy: (laughing) Nooo, I'm not!
695: What do you think of the IAAM vs
WCAC all-star game in March?
Daisy: It sounds like fun. I'd love to play in that.
695:What do you plan to study in college?
Daisy: I plan on entering into the medical field, law, or egineering. One of the three.
695: Do you cook?
Daisy: Yes, I do.My dad was a chef so I just learn from him.
695: Oh really? What can you make?
Daisy: So far I'm only good with breakfast (laughing). I make pancakes, french toast, egg sandwitches, hashbrowns and eggs. But, I think I can make chicken fingers now. It doesn't look that hard.
695: Who is your funniest teammate?
Daisy: On my AAU team probably the point guard Domonique Hagins, and on my school team Kiera Davis.
695:Any interesting things you want people to know about you?
Daisy: Well, the daisy on the basketball court is completely different than the one off. I'm graceful on the court, but off the court I'm probably one of the clumsiest people you'll meet. And my voice doesnt match my body size, its all high pitched.
(We're both laughing at this point)
695: Ok Clumsy, thanks and good luck this season.
Daisy: Thanks.
