And Bri also hauled down 11 rebounds in that game, one more than -- oh -- Jackie Young.

I would've liked to have seen Bri and Wilson match up more often and thought it was going to happen in the Final Four in 2017. Unfortunately, Bri blew out her ACL at the end of one of the early round games (Purdue?) and while the Irish pounded Ohio State in the Sweet 16, Stanford beat them in the Elite Eight. 
Well, hopefully we'll see them pounding each other for many a year in this league. Can't begin to tell you how happy I am that Bri is moving well.

As for Jackie and the finishing....I agree that this is a combination of pace and then a confidence factor. I'm certainly no pro, but play in two leagues. One is a tradtional "old guys" league (40+) and then I also play in a all-ages league. As you can guess the latter is faster and has better athletes. I find myself rushing layups, putbacks that I normally would easily drop in the old guys game. With everything else Jackie is doing, I'm wondering if she's rushing just and bit and perhaps over-concentrating now?  Not concerned about it in the long run because she'll learn and rise to the occasion.
