I'm not sure they make anyone anymore as tough as Turner.

The Barbara Turner Express (BTX) ran nonstop. 5’10” power forward.

Maybe if you ake the photo even bigger she will look even tougher. Turner wasn't much taller than Muhl and played center. And won the battles. I'll grant that Muhl had a tougher scowl.

she did? as i recall, more like power forward with a perimeter game. after jess moore graduated, they improvised with the 5 spot. did BT ever do the opening tip? i think ann strother was forced into those roles, and willnett, charde and brittany (occasionally) helped.

The Dream play the Fever tomorrow night, free watch on the WNBA app. Should be a good game, and I hope to see Crystal play.

Barbara had amazing moves. But when it comes to tough, Jamelle set the standard. Jamelle and Shea brought the grit that transformed Uconn.

Anyone have a picture of Jennifer R? The OG.

I think that Jamelle and Jenn R were equally tough and fun to watch.

I'll through a dark horse out there: Kelley Faris. Tough Indiana kid like Ash.

Barbara Turner was a great player in 2003 & 2004 when everybody said it was all DT teams, as were Maria Conlon, Jessica Moore & Ann Strother
