Message: [QUOTE="Sluconn Husky, post: 3456789, member: 5089"] Nice piece in the Courant on Mir Mclean: [I]McLean’s next step was to develop more of a face-up game, create her own shot, work on ball-handling and get more comfortable shooting on the perimeter. Steinbach saw growth in those areas and only expects her to continue improving under the tutelage of Auriemma and his staff. But what she was most impressed by were the intangibles that McLean brought to the court in a season where, with so many new faces, the team leaned on her for leadership and bringing people together off the court. “She’s grown up very quickly in the last two seasons,” Steinbach said, “and it’ll be exciting to watch how that will translate to the college level.” ... McLean only continued to impress on the floor, finishing the season averaging 21.3 points and 12.2 rebounds and notching 16 double-doubles in 23 games.
