Message: [QUOTE="HuskylnSC, post: 3524337, member: 7953"] My confidence is Aaliyah Edwards is not based in some amorphic hope but upon the lady and her performance to date. I don't know if we have ever had a frosh big with the experience and physical abilities of AE. She is the national outstanding player, The Most Valuable player for the province and Defensive Player of the year for her province. She's 6'3" and solidly built, yet her range makes [USER=8579]@DEpup[/USER] says her game is more suited to a 4/3 than a 4/5. Most of the time we are excited to get a player who played for USA U18, AE has been playing for the Canadian National Team with Kia Nurse and other professionals since she was 17. As far assimilation into the UConn way, numbers of freshmen were contributors in their first season recently Kia Nurse, KLS, CW, Anna. She also played for Kia's AAu sponsored team so I hope there has been some input from Kia about the UConn game. For Piath to contribute, all she has to do is give Liv a break for 2 to 3 minutes a half without letting the game get away from her. Her height and mass should enable her to give an opposing post some difficulty for a spurt. She seems to have a tremendous attitude and is athletically gifted with an immature game. I would be happy if Jemelle gets a chance to work with her. [/QUOTE]
