Thanks!  Wow! 

I found a tweet that indicated that Finalists for Aislinn Konig included Arizona, Kansas, Louisville, NC State, Oregon, USC, Stanford, Washington.  The UDub site has a lot of information and interest in her--their fans know her well since she has played in Washington. 

Here is a nice article on her.  A daughter of a coach, both parents played point guards.  She is a 5'11" guard.    Scored 30 points a game--in eighth grade.  In order to get exposure in the US she played on a team in Washington State as a 9th grader out of position (as a center!) and made all-region.  She became the most highly recruited guard in the history of British Columbia--as a sophomore.

Just for fun, take a look at her buzzer beater from way beyond half court.  It hits nothing but net.

"Aislinn Konig is a defenders worst nightmare.  The 2016 combo from the BC Elite challenges defenders of both size and quickness.  With good size at 5-10, she creates effectively off the dribble with a very focused awareness of her match up and how to attack their footwork.  She uses an impressive hesitation move that is followed with the kind of acceleration that leads to deep penetration into the paint.  Konig can finish at the rim but calls on a soft touch floater as well.  The form is there from the perimeter as well as the range to keep the opposition honest.  She did struggle with some face guarding which in turn led to some forced shots but the willingness to give it up is also there and serves her well when pressured."

"We’ve watched Konig really develop of the last three years into a well-rounded guard who can play both on and off the ball. Seeing her during the high school season and dominate as a scorer and here playing against top west coast competition and leading a young inexperienced team in all facets of the game shows her versatility. The 5-11 combo guard has terrific size and uses width and strength in her upper body to attack off the dribble. When she’s played for the drive she has deep range, courtesy of the international 3-point line she plays with most of the year. Despite living in an area with a shallow talent pool most years, Konig seeks out top competition with regularity and it has really aided her growth as a player."

ESPN gives her 3 stars and a 90 rating, says she is the 18th best guard.  That is certainly an outlier of a rating.

And a January 18 newspaper article:

And if you think the best players can’t also have the best grades, Konig will immediately prove you wrong.

“We were sitting in the office one day and Yale called,” Brown said of the prestigious Ivy League school. “The coach that called asked if she was interested in going to the most prestigious university in the world, so I turned to Ace and I said ‘Hey are you interested in going there?’ She said thanks, but she had other plans. I mean, you’re turning down Yale. I can’t even relate to all of this.”

Even though she still has another full year of high school remaining, her decision will be made sooner than later.

She says she will be traveling the country to visit the schools on her list--I don't know the timing, but I would guess it would have to be after her high school season ends.  Given her academics, spring break?  Early summer?  In any case, it is nice to have another excellent prospect on our list of potentials.
