Three-star wing Lauren Douglas picks the Big Ten

In a message to ESPN Hoopgurlz, 6-foot-2 wing Lauren Douglas of Collierville, Tenn., confirmed that she has made a verbal pledge to Northwestern. Douglas, who played her summer basketball with Memphis Elite Daniels, attends Briarcrest Christian School and also considered Miami, Georgia Tech, Marquette, Georgetown, and Virginia throughout her decision-making process.

The Big Ten-bound member of the class of 2012 was forced to sit out a good portion of her junior season due to Tennessee high school transfer rules. Douglas was permitted to play in the last four games of the season, where she helped her Briarcrest Saints team make the state championship game.

Douglas joins Maggie Lyon (New Trier/ Winnetka, Ill.) and Christen Johnson (Lovett School/ Atlanta, Ga.) as a member of the 2012 Wildcat recruiting class. Lyon made her verbal pledge to head coach Joe McKeon earlier in the week.

ESPN Hoopgurlz.com "Best of Summer"

The Best of Summer Series is all about celebrating the club circuit's lady road warriors who put their games on the line from the end of March until the end of July. Much of the hub-hub is about tall, dominating post players, the new wave of tall point guards, cat-quick wing players and shooters with length. So with our next installment of the Best of Summer 2011, we give nods to the players who don't fit the prototype, yet still got it done in impressive fashion.

ESPN.com

We gripe all summer about players not finishing with their left hand. Some players don't even bother to use it for a layup, even if it improves the angle and protects it from the help side defense. So maybe the easiest solution is to just have a couple of lefties on the team, like ESPN HoopGurlz evaluator, Lisa Bodine.

Lisa's 2011 All-Lefty Team

Danielle Ballard, Memphis Elite
Allisha Gray, Georgia Metros
Malina Howard, Sports City U
Alexis Jones, Texas Express
Kelsey Mitchell, All Ohio Black/Lady Wolves Elite
Zaire O'Neal, Gauchos 15U
Kelsey Plum, Wiggins Waves
Taya Reimer, Gym Rats-Riego/Midwest Elite
Jatarie White, Boo Williams
Peyton Whitted, GA Hoopstars

This year's All-Leftie Team has a little bit of everything; tough post players, lights-out shooters, dynamic scorers and smooth passers. Just imagine this southpaw squad on the floor as a real team -- they may never have to go to their right.

PG Alicia Payne chooses Southern Conference school

Alicia Payne of Memphis, Tenn., has committed to Tennessee-Chattanooga, she told ESPN HoopGurlz in an email message.

The 5-foot-7 point guard, rated three stars by ESPN HoopGurlz, said she also considered Troy and East Tennessee.

"I decided on U.T. Chattanooga because of the excitement around the program, what the coaching staff and players believe we can do during my four years," Payne said. "University of Tennessee Chattanooga, I feel is a great fit for me as a student-athlete."

Payne is a rising senior at White Station (Memphis, Tenn.) and played her club ball for Memphis Elite.
