How many times has she played against a team that presses an entire game? This will be her first. She is one of the VERY best rebounders in the game, but it’s difficult to carry that weight up and down the floor at full speed.
Oh, I think she’ll do well but I expect Vic to limit her minutes (and fouls) til end of the game crunch time when the Vols have shown their most vulnerability.
Maryland runs a fast-paced offense ;Texas had no problems keeping up with their pace.
Does it matter if Tennessee presses the whole game when Oldacre (and even Taylor JOnes) is already down on the low block? Do you expect her to be helping beat the press? I certainly don't. I could be wrong.
Twice you've stated that she's a great rebounder; she also scores 10.7 points a game. Plays nearly 19 minutes a game.
Texas also presses. Teams that press seem to hate being pressed. So, we'll see how effective each team's press is and how much of it they play. Rori Harmon knows how to handle the press; and, she knows how to press effectively.
