MU signees continue fine seasons

MU's most balanced recruiting class in years continues to deliver memorable seasons at their respective programs this winter.  Of note:

• Chris Otule led the Fort Bend Bush Broncos to a playoff victory over Galveston Ball earlier this week, 58-43.  The 6'10" Otule led his squad with a team-high 14 points and 10 blocks in the victory.  Bush is now 24-8 on the season and plays Northshore tonight in the second round of the playoffs.
  
• Nick Wiliams' LeFlore Rattlers (29-2 overall) are in the midst of a state title defense, and toppped Dothan 67-53 earlier this week.  Williams had 11 points in the win.  With the victory, Alabama's top-ranked Rattlers earned the right to play Baldwin County in the 6A regional finals on Friday morning where the winner will advance to the state tournament in Birmingham.  LeFlore has already beaten Baldwin County three times this season.
• Joseph Fulce continued his dominant play at Tyler JC with a 30 point, 12 rebound effort in the Apaches recent loss to Blinn JC, 76-94.   The Apaches fell to 22-2 on the year, losing for the first time in their last nine outings.  For a look at Fulce's game by game production on one of the nation's top JUCO teams click here.  Despite the loss, the Apaches are off to a record start.
  
• Finally, set your DVRs tonight -- Tyshawn Taylor and the St Anthony's Friars will appear on ESPN against American Christian Academy, led by super guard Tyreke Evans.  Tipoff is scheduled for 8pm CT on ESPN.  Here's a quick look at Taylor in action:

I have not seen Taylor play so I am looking forward to the game tonight.

Otule with 10 blocks.  Very nice.

I am not sure what to make out of Fulce.  His stats sound great as it seems like he has a very good all around game where he can shot the outside shot, score inside, rebound very well and defend.  Maybe a Nnamaka type of player?

Was not high on Nick Williams last year but he looks and sounds like a very good player who will contribute immediately.
