An Asian American Basketball Player to Watch: Nicole Hung

By Jeff | Tuesday, February 2, 2010 | View Comments

Advertise on 8Asians.com

Harvard-Westlake of North Hollywood’s Nicole Hung was selected as California State Athlete of the week by ESPN’s Calhisports.com.  Not only is she a great basketball player, scoring 24 points and pulling down 12 rebounds in a recent 70-67 victory, but this 6-0 girl has a 4.2 GPA, plays piano like a concert pianist, and plays bassoon in the Harvard-Westlake High School orchestra.   Her team is California’s #1 ranked Division 4 team (#5 overall), and she’s headed to Princeton.  Does that remind anyone else of a certain Asian American Ivy league basketball player?

What next?
