More of a shame that they got away from Rutgers, but that's for another thread

She shot the ball awfully well from three against UConn
And the second half against Stanford she did as well

Everybody shoots threes well against UConn, even players who had not hit a three for half a season.

- I think it's fair and prudent to see how Fudd, Griffin, Harmon and Miles come back from their knee injuries. If they make solid progress this year, it bodes well for the following years in the pro's. Good luck to them all.

- Looking at forwards, I'll be interested to see where Iriafen lands in college next season and how playing in that system helps/hinders her development, which came on strong last season. Westbeld has improved her footwork and rebounding working with Carlos Knox, who was brought in last year by Coach Ivey specifically to help with skill development for players who had pro potential. Will be interesting to see how that progresses with both players.

- While I'm admittedly biased on Sonia Citron, I think Merchant got it right: At 6'1", she can play wing or the #2 and rebounds/plays defense well, while shooting from all three levels.

- With Strong coming into Storrs, will Pagie move out of the #4 and to off-guard? Or point?

I’m not sure if Citron is a top 10 pick but she will be drafted and will make a roster. She’s such a gamer who innately senses what is needed on the floor based on her teammates strengths and weaknesses - and fills the gaps. Every team in the league could use a player with her skills and steady temperament.
