Wynter Whitley and Monique Curry both signed their letters of intent to attend Duke University next fall.
In addition to the rankings mentioned in the article, Blue Star, the
best-known recruiting service in the country, ranked Whitley #7 and Curry
#8. Any way you look at it, Duke has added two more weapons to its
already potent arsenal. The idea of teaming up Curry with Beard & Mosch
and Whitley with Tillis & Matyasovsky is an encouraging one. It
certainly softens the blow of Schweitzer, West and Parent all graduating.

For those interested in a daily fix of women's hoops news, there are a
few good sites on the web.
Let's start with Full Court Press. It's the best written women's hoops webmag out there, though a lot of it requires a subscription. Still plenty of free articles, though, and it covers all levels of basketball.
For recruiting, head nowhere else but Sibyl's page. She has a ton of links and composite ranking of several classes worth of recruits. (For the record, she has Curry at #4 and Whitley at #5).
For general and more up-to-date news, plus message boards filled with
knowledgable fans, check out the Women's Basketball Journal and Hoop Planet. Both have the ubiquitous Rivals format and offer
daily updates.
