One thing the last few seasons have taught me is that we want to have as many perimeter shooters as possible. The last 3 seasons we’ve not had enough consistent threats in this area. Allie is an important addition.

Last season, after Azzi went down it was just Lou. The year before that it was Paige Azzi and Caroline until the concussion took Caroline away. Paige and Azzi got us to the NC game but one more threat would have helped, especially after Dorka went down. Three years ago our only consistent perimeter threat was Paige and we couldn’t get past the final four.

Don’t get me wrong, all those teams had great players on them, some of my personal favorites, like Evina and Christyn and Olivia. But in each case one more shooter would have helped a lot.

I’m thrilled that we’ll have Paige Ash Allie at a minimum next season, and if Azzi and Caroline can return to their previous form I’ll be thrilled. 5 is a good number of shooters to have.

Remember when Geno used to complain that the team couldn’t shoot? I think those days are gone. Allie and Ash will carry us forward.
