Lorin Dixon in training camp

[MilfordHusky]

From Jim Fuller:

"The Tulsa Shock announced that it has invited former UConn guard Lorin Dixon to its training camp which, by my count, makes 12 former Huskies heading to WNBA training camps.

I'm not going to lie about being a little surprised about Dixon getting an invite. It will be interesting to see how she fares in training camp. I do think that her chance of making the Shock would increase dramatically if Tulsa were to schedule North Carolina in a preseason game or at least let Dixon go up against former North Carolina guard Cetera Degraffenreid, who seemed to bring the best out of Dixon."

I love Jim's comment about UNC.

That's exactly why I create links between them when people miss threads.

bummer for Lorin - not terribly surprised, but am surprised that Baugh was released. maybe she never really did come back from her multitude of injuries. it's really too bad because she had so much talent coming out of HS...

Shannon Bobbitt cut as well, by Indiana

Too bad for Lorin et al. It's especially tough with the reduced rosters.

shortage of teams AND roster players... sad thing for the WNBA
