Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5138022, member: 12088"] I have no doubt Sarah is capable of leading the team to an NC, maybe more than one. And don't worry about her leadership qualities. She's been leading every team she's been on 8th grade. This season's team has an excellent shot at an NC. Much depends on Paige and Azzi, of course, but that's a given in any year. What's not fully known yet is how well the freshmen and sophomores will grow into a cohesive unit, and how strong Aubrey will be on her return. It's a blow that Ayanna is injured. This means Ice and Jana will have to develop and operate with less of a safety net. Fortunately, it doesn't look like either Ice or Jana will turn out to be as foul prone as we all feared this summer. Also, Geno has already been experimenting with small lineups using Sarah at the 5. This is how she mostly played throughout high school, so it's not totally new to her. One notable game against Blanca Thomas's high school when she was a junior shows that she know how to play against taller players. I can picture a small lineup with Sarah Aubrey Paige Morgan and Azzi giving a lot of teams fits. [/QUOTE]
