WOMEN'S BASKETBALL: Hoop ... There It Is ... Ashley Huntey Is A Baller!

BIG RAPIDS - We know about Ashley Huntey's abilities as a basketball player, but we could soon be seeing her hooping it up for the Ferris State University women's basketball team.

Huntey, who is doing her thing playing college volleyball for the Bulldogs, has her spot on the Ferris women's basketball team and should bring a healthy dose of athleticism and length aty 5-foot-10.

Had a chance to watch the first Bulldog women's basketball practice on Thursday evening and I think we could be seeing an exciting brand of hoops this year on the hardwood.

Having Ashley, who starred as a prep student-athlete at nearby Morley Stanwood High School, on the squad just makes it an even more positive experience for Ferris. It was a treat watching her play sports in high school and it has been great to watch her emerge as a college volleyball player and, hopefully, as a college b-ball player, too.

The Bulldogs have a good mix of experience and youth even if there is not a whole lot of depth and a preseasonn injury.
