Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 5194927, member: 11664"] I've noticed how well that Jana has been effectively battling & bruising with the opposing players in the paint which helps to keep them off balance & out of position to be as much of a scoring threat. I do not see Sarah doing that nearly as much or as effectively in the paint. SCar attacks the lane a lot & whoever plays center will most likely committ some fouls. So UConn will need extra bodies to absorb fouls. Does UConn want to put Sarah at risk of getting 2 quick fouls and needing to sit down for much of the first half? I don't see Aubrey as being able to bang in the paint as effectively as Jana either. Clearly, Geno has been starting Jana to get her more comfortable to meet the challange of playing center. She seems to be able to battle fiercely at times for rebounds and when trying to score. Last year UConn was very dependent on Edwards for much of it scoring. Perhaps too much. And then look what happend when Edwards got 2 early fouls such as in the Iowa game IIRC. [/QUOTE]
