I want Ayanna back times 2 ... no, wait, times 4.

Is Ayanna sporting a tattoo?

Is Ayanna sporting a tattoo?

I don't think it's new, didn't she wear an (fore)arm sleeve during games her freshman season?

Edit: I just watched the closing minutes of the BE Tournament game against Georgetown in Ayanna's freshman season...she wore a white forearm sleeve on her left arm. I assumed it was tattoo related.

It's great to see them in action!

Paige looks mighty strong in this pic

Paige looks mighty strong in this pic

Speaking of “looking strong,” Azzi has added some serious muscle to her frame. Let’s all hope that her knee problems are behind her.

Ashlynn looks like she really enjoys practice and great to see Caroline. That kid needs to catch a break this season and hopefully return to her freshman form.

 

[EricLA]

I remain cautiously optimistic about this team. Fully healthy, they are a legit contender for the NC. Would be nice to send Paige out on top!

Ashlynn has the reputation of being a practice animal, and yes, Caroline deserves to catch a break.

No more stick arms. And Chen has some legs!!

wish ayanna didn't need the leg wrap

The whole team looks like they put on a ton of muscle this offseason. I wouldn't mess with the Huskies this year.

If you put Paige's Freshman photo side by side with this years, the only part of the photo that would be similar is her face.

wish ayanna didn't need the leg wrap

its a leg sleeve not a leg wrap. She might want to play with a compression sleeve for a very long time, not sure why someone wouldn't want players to feel as comfortable as possible on the court.

Ashlynn's smile is unrivaled . . . unequaled . . . unsurpassed!

 

[PacoSwede]

well, how embarrassing. thanks for clearing that up!

... but i knew this already.

maybe some BYers didn't though. i'm pretty sure they all wish she didn't need the wrap. ... oops, make that sleeve.

and of course i want yanna to be as comfortable as conceivable. who wouldn't?

After 52 years in martial arts...I have learned one thing that applies to all sports. You have to put in the work, you have to practice, you have to condition, and you have to build strength...because if you don't you can be sure that your competition is. It is good to see how serious they are about the things that matter no one is going to hand them a championship and there are teams out there that are just as hungry, who think they deserve it, who are just as talented, and who are willing to work hard to get it. I can't wait to see this team in action, to see their improvement over the season, and to watch them win number 12.

Absolutely right about the nature of competition. AND martial arts!

I haven’t put in 52 years, but I did a lot in my younger days, and even wrote a series of martial arts novels, and what you just said is a major theme. And it’s not just physical. It’s mental and emotional conditioning too. I might call it spiritual. Qi. Learning how to rouse one’s fighting spirit and sustain it. Paige is a total black belt, prolly around 9th dan. I can’t wait to see if she can set the tone for the whole team.

Bone Dog, I believe she’s always had that tattoo, thus the sleeve worn during games.
