Message: [QUOTE="visitingcock, post: 4999209, member: 6872"] Here is what Dawn does differently. She doesn't wait that long. She works in subs in the first half - or even first quarter to get them experience. during the heat of battle against the other team's starters. Last year, she brought freshman Watkins in against Brink. This year MiLaysia played a number of minutes from the first game against Notre Dame Dame on. Tessa got fewer but some first quarter minutes in the early season but plenty down the stretch and the tournament. Our deep bench player Sakima Walkerm was the only player who didn't see many first half minutes. She saw mostly the traditional last four minutes. A number of teams hang with us, or came back on us through the year, but our players were never tired in the 4th . Was the 9 player rotation a brilliant strategic plan that Dawn worked up in the off-season? Doubtful. More than likely it was dictated by circumstance. [/QUOTE]
