Former Basketball Coaches Without Boundaries Senior Division Philadelphia Severty-Sixers player Amanda Jones is currently playing Division I Women's Basketball for Lafayette College located in Easton , Pa.   Amanda is one of the first girls to play in our BCWB Youth Summer Basketball League.  Playing in our first year of 2000 for the Philly 76'er, Amanda played on the 2000 Philly 76'er Senior Division Championship team coached by personal individual instruction trainer and family friend Darryl Whiten.   Amanda also played in the 2001 and 2002 seasons.   Amanda has always had talent and played with the boys every chance she was afforded.   While playing in the BCWB Youth Summer League, Admana received much respect from the boys for her ability to step back off the three point circle and knock down the tri-fecta. Additionally, she mixed it up with the boys with a drive to the hoop from time to time and on the boards.
