O’Dowd’s Bostick commits to Oregon State

Stephanie Hammon — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 01:00:18 +0000

Yet another Bishop O’Dowd girls basketball player will play Division I basketball next season. Point guard Alexis Bostick, a four-year starter for the Dragons, recently gave an oral commitment to Oregon State. She can sign her letter of intent on April 14.

“I gave them my commitment just because me and the coach (LaVonda Wagner) had the same mentality of winning and giving 100 percent all the time, ” said Bostick, who told Wagner of her decision after a recruiting visit to Corvallis in early February.

Bostick is the third O’Dowd senior to commit to a Division I program. Forward Robie Mayberry (Pepperdine) and guard Mikayla Lyles (Cal) signed their letters of intent during the early signing period in November.

The Dragons are the No. 1 seed in the NCS Division III playoffs, which tip off tonight.

Stier commits to Marquette

Matt Smith — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 06:14:32 +0000

Bishop O’Dowd High School’s Rachel Stier, the top libero in the East Bay for the last two years, has verbally committed to play volleyball at the University of Marquette in the fall.

Stier had 436 digs for the Dragons in 2009 as she was a huge part in the team’s run to the NorCal Finals. Her biggest dig of the year came in the North Coast Section finals as when she got a ball up late in the fourth-game that allowed the Dragons to win the Division III title and avoid a fifth game with Sir Francis Drake.
Stier will be receiving a partial scholarship during her freshman year at Marquette.
