UConn signees Coombs, Gordon score in double figures in Jordan Brand Classic

Mikayla Coombs had 12 points, three rebounds and a game-high seven assists as the West rolled to a 122-81 win over the East in the girls' game at the Jordan Brand Classic at the Barclays Center.

Coombs had six points (courtesy of a pair of 3-pointers), two rebounds and three assists as the West opened the game on a 15-0 run. Her seven assists were one shy of the team total for the East team.

Lexi Gordon had 14 points and two rebounds while Megan Walker finished with six points, four rebounds and two assists for the East team.

Stanford commit Kiana Williams had 20 points and Texas A&M signee Chennedy Carter had 19 points and five rebounds to lead five West players in double figures.

Chasity Patterson, who is headed to Texas, had 17 points as she joined Gordon as the only East players to score in double figures.

Jim -

Always great reading your blogs and articles. UConn WBB fans are blessed to follow the best ever program. And blessed to have writers who care about the UConn WBB program.

Speaking of incoming freshmen, I have a question about a former one, Elena Delle Donne.

Did she technically transfer from UConn WBB? Or, since she left on day 2 or 3 of summer school, did EDD technically decommit?

Just curious as to how the NCAA classifies transfers. Must be enrolled in the Fall or Spring semester? Or enrolled at any time?

Thanks.

Since she signed a letter of intent and had to be released from her scholarship, I would say that she falls into more of a transfer than a decommit even though she never appeared in a game at UConn especially since she was enrolled at the school during the summer
