First Night Streaming

The men act like they are too cool for these activities.

Megan looks good, very good.

just turned it off...too many donuts for me

It was more extreme than the WNBA All-Star game in terms of lack of defense. But it was clear that Crystal can play.

 

[pvdoggy]

Most improved player this year on the women's team will be either Megan or Lexi.

Crystal also had some nice passes to the guys. She just popped off the screen.

Lexi looked good and she really showed some effort banging for some rebounds. I think she will
break into the rotation.

Agree. Megan and Lexi look very good tonight ...

The best player on the floor by a wide margin:

And that is why they have their record and the women have a stratosphere record....

Something tells me Napheesa might have something to say about that..we will need both to be Soph level and then some this year to win.

Lexi looked good but let’s not forget the setting and effort level of the defense. Our Rotation won’t be more than 7, possibly 6 with Crystal, Napheesa & Lou playing 35+ mins most nights.

They will play 35+ minutes in the handful of competitive out-of-conference games. I don't expect them to go past 28 or so against most AAC opponents.

You’re probably right...games that matter to Geno I don’t see any of them exiting, which quite frankly I’d be okay with haha I’ll take those 3 over anyone on the country.

They were told "be cool" "chill" etc and stay at least 6 feet away from Geno's players if you know what's good for you.

I'd say he gained 10 pounds this summer, but figures they'll work that off him by Christmas break.

Hopefully both.

Lou has positive vibes coming her way from Europe. Sister Karlie is now wearing Lou's #33. By the way, in the picture can any of you name who #22 is(front row center). Dont look it up, try and guess.

Looks like a player I just saw play for Canada in the World Cup in Tenerife. Ruth Hamblin.

Correct. She looks thinner than when I last saw her at OSU. She played in Australia last year.

Good news and bad news from First Night:

The only "bad" news I saw was that Liv missed all 3 dunk attempts. I thought she would nail at least one.

Three recruits were there, though maybe not everyone that some Boneyarders wanted.

Lou shot the ball like ... well, like Lou. Or Allie Quigley. Or Sue Bird. Or Diana. We have Lou and no one else does.

Crystal looked really good. Her shooting range is near half court.

Batouly had no knee brace.

Lexi looked much better than last year.

Michaela played in the half-court and full-court games, so she has been fully cleared.

Megan looked solid. Like an oak tree.
