We are just past the midway point to the regular season. There is no clear-cut favorite to who will win the Girls' Basketball All-Area MVP race.
Right now, the mix looks to be...

• Hillhouse senior Dannisha Pierce, who is the area's leading scorer at 22.2 points per game.
• Anisha Wilson is headed to the University of Miami for a reason. Thanks to this senior guard, Career doesn't look to be a team that lost a pair of Division I players.
• There's Wilbur Cross' do-it-all senior Chantell Alford.
• Though Rachel Roberts missed seven games for Mercy after being suspended for violating team rules, the Villanova-bound guard is perhaps the most talented player in the area. And don't forget about her teammate Bianca Simmons.
• No one probably means more to their team than Morgan's Kara Fillion.

The list continues with Branford Courtney Schissler, Lauralton Hall's Keylantra Langley, Hand's Kerry Wallack and Law's Casey Dulin.
