Did Paige feed her slime some answers like she feeds the basketball. (Just kidding).

Thank God Paige joined Azzi on this list. Can you imagine the banter had only one done so!

Dorka and Nika no surprise. Congrats one and all.

What professor would dare give Paige or Nika a C.

Love it! Put the student back into student-athlete.

One less than positive observation about this list for me is the absence of Amari who many on the team seem to think may have the sharpest mind for learning / retaining facts and it is just this skill that should have helped in her course work. This seems to be consistent with the observation that her on court performance should have been better based on her innate talent.

Maybe this will help in her soul searching to give everything she has on and off the court.

Contemplating this some more, I think Dorka is in the same category (with Bear fighting) while Azzi is just too sweet to give a bad grade to.

Island bears at that! The most ferocious bears known to man.
