Jana vs Tenn

[JRRRJ]

BTW, the scoring rate for the 'bigs' (which isn't entirely in their control) goes like this:

Sarah: 28.16
Blanca: 21.70
Jana: 16.89
Ayanna: 16.17
Serah 15.94
Caroline: 8.13

My guess a bad fit. Ya despite the score tenn. was maybe the most athletic team we’ve played this year. I think Geno decided to stay ahead of them with speed and athleticism.

I think we all thought Serah Williams as an ALL-BIG Ten player was going to be much better than Jana. That's not the case. Serah is better than Jana on defense, but other than that, Jana is just as good. In fact, per minute, Jana is 20% better rebounder than Serah. On offense their numbers are very similar.

As regards getting a rebound up high and then bringing it down:

I wonder if players feel that they are less :strong" or in control holding the ball over their head versus holding it closer to their chest, and that is why so many bring the ball down. In my very limited time playing basketball, I know that I had that sensation - there was a comfort level in bringing the ball down.

BTW, the scoring rate for the 'bigs' . . . :

Caroline: 8.13

Basketball terminology is oft ambiguous and fluid, but I don't consider Caroline a big. Neither does the UConn roster, which lists her as a guard, and neither does Caroline, who introduces herself as "a UConn guard" in this video:
