" Piterniece is Colorado’s fourth signee for the upcoming season as she joins Britney Blythe, a 5-9 point guard from San Mateo, Calif., Chelsea Dale, a 6-1 guard/forward from Palos Verdes Estates, Calif., and Brittany Spears, a 6-1 forward from Pasadena, Calif., who all signed with Colorado in November."

In addition to Piterniece, CU will apparently gain Kelly Jo Mullaney as a transfer from Colorado Sate. Mullaney completed her freshmen year at CSU recently and is expected to gain admission to CU. She led CSU in scoring last season. Obviously she will sit out next season and be a sophomore in 08-09.
Both Piterniece and Mullaney are wing players and good three-point shooters, which is any area the Buffs' need improvement.

Well they also have Brittany Spears coming in. She will be by far the top recruit for this year.
Video of Spears prep school team - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRuZgrT5ybU
Spears is #22 in black, #33 Tania Walters is going to Marshall and #11 Kristina Ford to Iona
#23 Christine Lesane is a junior being recruited by Colorado.
#20 for the white team Jocelyn Bailey is considered a top 150/200 ranked junior

Thanks for passing on the link to the Spears' video.
I agree that she will most likely be the most talented newcomer this fall and believe that she will have a good chance at starting.
Do you happen to have her stats?

| I don't know her exact stats but going by the team's website, it looks like she averaged about 17/18 ppg.

Mullaney has been officially acknowledged as transfering to Colorado from Colorado State.

It seems the Buffs will have lots of options on the wing over the next several seasons with the signing of Mullaney along with the others that have come into the fold in this recruiting class - Brittany Spears, Dina Piterniece and Chelsea Dale are also wing players.

| Maybe I haven't followed CU close enough. But I thought Spears was suppose to be a freshman this past year (06-07) What happened?

Last season Spears was accepted by admissions at CU so she spent this past season at Notre Dame Prep in Fitchburg, MA.
