Her transition has been quick, with her natural confidence making her feel more comfortable in practices. She’s impressed her teammates with the fast pace she plays at, and her energy is apparent on the court. " "It would appear that Williams has avoided the struggles of transitioning to college, but that isn’t the case. Practices are still hard, she said, but she’s eager to soak in all the knowledge she can and play up to expectations. “Practice is hard,” Williams said. “It gets tough at times, but I look forward to it because you learn so much and coach [Auriemma] teaches you so much every day -- all the coaches on the coaching staff do. You learn so much, and you learn a lot from your teammates. So we just come in here every day and try to get better.” [/QUOTE]
