<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cCoach Jackson was a very, very big supporter of me playing,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201cShe did anything she could to get me on the team, and it\u2019s just been the best thing that\u2019s happened to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
They can see why now. Schmidt averaged more than 17 points, eight rebounds and three steals through six games after Tuesday\u2019s 24-point double-double over Gallatin, which moved Station Camp to 7-2 on the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re still figuring out all the kinks, but I think overall she\u2019s done a good job of meshing with what we wanna do offensively, what we do defensively,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cWe\u2019re doing a good job of trying to find her in transition, get her some easy buckets, because she\u2019s really athletic.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tuesday\u2019s total matched a season-high for Schmidt with the Bison. She scored 24 points at Hunters Lane in their second game this year and followed it against Northeast with 22 points and eight rebounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Standing at 5-foot-11, Schmidt has been an athletic addition for Station Camp. She and returnees Baylor Ayers and Ella Ohman give their team three starters at 5-foot-9 or taller.<\/p>\n
It has allowed Jackson to move Ohman to a perimeter position defensively and employ a transition style on offense, turning turnovers into points through a 1-3-1 zone that Schmidt leads at the top.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been awesome,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201cThese girls have been great with incorporating me and learning my style, because we have different styles.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy coach has a different style, so learning each other and being able to, like, mesh ourselves together and work together as a team \u2013 to learn each other and be able to push each other to score and benefit each other.\u201d<\/p>\n
When they aren\u2019t out on the fastbreak, the Bison can shoot outside or look for Schmidt in the low post.<\/p>\n
She scored on a pair of putback misses in the first half against Gallatin to go along with three steals and two blocks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To start the third quarter, Station Camp tried feeding her the ball on a lob.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Schmidt hasn\u2019t been away from basketball entirely for the past year. \u201cI\u2019ve been raised playing basketball my whole life,\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her mom \u2013 Jodi Parriott Schmidt, who played two seasons of high school point guard, then hit a growth spurt and at 6-foot-2 signed with USC \u2013 has always been an influence.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s never forced me to play, but she\u2019s always supported me,\u201d Brynn Schmidt said. \u201cShe trains me on the weekends. She helps me as much as she can.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy mom used to be a point guard, so we\u2019re a little bit different. She\u2019s just been the best support I\u2019ve ever had. She\u2019s loved me at the times I\u2019ve scored six points a game, and she helps me to succeed even when I\u2019m at 25 points a game.\u201d<\/p>\n
While with the Trojans, Jodi played with Tina Thompson, who was the No. 1 pick in the 1997 WNBA Draft and went on to become the league\u2019s all-time leading scorer before retiring. Thompson is a Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer and considered one of the Top 15 players in the sport\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
Brynn has quickly become one of the Bison\u2019s best in her own right.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust being able to play with a team that\u2019s so supportive and a coach that\u2019s so supportive, that just makes me feel so welcome,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201cAnd just being able to help the team as much as I can, it\u2019s a fun environment.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brynn Schmidt (5) scores in the lane for Station Camp against Gallatin.
