For me, on paper and because we are the defending champs, we (UConn) are the favorites. Then South Carolina. Followed by UCLA, Texas, LSU, and Oklahoma. South Carolina could be a problem, same with the other teams. So much just depends on how all the parts blend together. With South Carolina. They have a great coach in Staley and how she is able to get her bench players to buy in and play hard and produce. If Joyce Edwards and Chole Kitts develop their games just a little bit more and if Ashlyn Watkins comes back at 100%. South Carolina could be a problem.

A lot is going to depend on the health of the players, which team is committed to their common core values and principles, how teams handle adversity, and for us at UConn, do we slip into complacency or do we keep reminding ourselves that somewhere out there lurks a rival who is working harder and planning smarter to take us down.

We shall see. It is going to be another great season of WCBB and I can't wait!!
