Westwood's Ali Fleischer Gets Court Time with Former Boston Celtic Walter McCarthy

The following was taken from a press release submitted to Westwood Patch by the Celtics Cowens Camps.

For the past two weeks, Westwood's Ali Fleischer has been working on her basketball skills at the Celtics training facility in Waltham. 

Fleischer is one of many young athletes who are attending the Celtics Cowens Camps, presented by Reebok, where players get to practice and learn from former Celtics forward Walter McCarty.  McCarty brings his skills and acumen to the camp as a guest lecturer and instructor to a group of young, dedicated players, many of which look up to him as an idol.

At camp on Wednesday, Walter McCarty pulled Westwood’s Fleischer from the crowd for some passing drills.
