Girl scores 113 - ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN - points (team wins 137-32)

[UrbScotty]

From the DAY-UM file:

Epiphanny Prince was instructed to maintain her intensity on the court, despite the less-than-stellar opponent and apparent lack of a challenge.

The 5-foot-9 high school senior couldn't have been more focused Wednesday.

Prince scored 113 points for Murry Bergtraum High School in a 137-32 win over Brandeis High School, breaking a girls' national prep record previously held by Hall of Famer Cheryl Miller.

"I was telling some college coaches before the game that in the (Public School Athletic League) the competition isn't that great, and that I thought I might get bored," Prince said. "They told me to keep playing hard and doing my best."

9. I am a spelling traditionalist if you want your kid to be named Lisa...

don't spell it Lyssa. It's not original it's just stupid! If you want your kid to have a name unlike her classmates go whole hog and choose a really odd name like Xanthippe, don't just be a loser and spell a normal name incorrectly.

10. Nice quote LeBron

"It's an amazing thing when an individual does that," NBA star LeBron James said, when told of Prince's performance. "I don't know who she is, but maybe we'll see her in the WNBA. For that matter, the NBA."

11. Can she dunk?

[bigwillq]

14. It says she's 5-9

I say probably not. Not yet at least. I think I've only seen one female ever dunk, a girl from North Carolina. Forget her name.

15. Doubtful

I saw a few games like this when I was a sportswriter. As the story says this one was, they're almost always a case of a player getting a lot of good looks against a poor team.
