In my opinion, Mo is the only one of the three freshmen playing with any kind of consistency right now. Morgan's potential is apparent, and she shows flashes of future brilliance, but then will turn around and commit a glaring defensive gaffe ten seconds later. I think this is typical for a Freshman, and I have every confidence in what her future level of play will be...though fairly limited expectations for thisyear. The larger conundrum is Breanna's play. When she encounters most of our opponents, games in which we dominate, those games are just extensions of her high school experience, where her superiority on the floor was taken for granted. When we play more physically aggressive teams, however, she is completely out of sync, often looking lost out there. Of course, we are all guilty of having outsized expectations of her, but I'm convinced that her contributions for the remainder of this year, with two tough games to go, followed by post-season play, will continue to be limited. The off-season will be critical for her, bulking up a bit and learning to use her physical gifts to greater advantage. The potential remains unlimited, but she's going to face more and more rough and physical play, something for which she's clearly not yet prepared.
