I think I read a year or so ago that Purdue was also recruiting Kendall Bostic her teammate, but can't find anything on it.

Northwestern is 3A, but ranked #1 of all of the classes. They play a ridiculous schedule this year. Won 3A State title last year (29-1), and should win the next two years, as Layden & Bostic are only JR's. They play a ton of 4A games. They won their first game last night (11/3) at Twin Lakes, 78-11. 11pts? Mercy rule? Coach Layden said they didn't go there to embarrass anybody, just to work on their game. Too funny. They play 4A Carmel next Sat at home. They go out of state to OH & KY for tournaments. They got their only loss last year in KY, by 2pts. They will play 4A Bedford North Lawrence in the Hall of Fame Holiday Tournament. I saw them play a couple of times last year as SO's, and the other teams didn't have a chance. Women amongst little girls. It's like they were born to play bball and know exactly what to do, while the girls on the other team are just fumbling around. Coach Kathie Layden won three Class1A State titles at Tri-Central & a 3A State title with NW and should win two more before her daughter, Madison, graduates. Not bad for a small county (Howard) school northwest of Kokomo. Yah, I know, I seem way too interested in girls HS basketball. Why? NW was my old HS, from many moons ago. Just nice to see them doing so well, and Purdue is getting one of the two. The boys team should have Tayson Parker as a JR this year, unless he moved to a different district. I believe he is or was interested in Purdue.

To bad Purdue didn't get Bostic, too. She had 27pts & Layden had 24.

Saw Layden play this morning. She would be a starter right now for Purdue. She's not ranked nationally but she is really good. ESPN evaluators disregard anyone not on the main AAU circuit. Like her more than Sydney Parrish.
