She also logged 23+ minutes per game over the season, which indicates prime substitute status. In a way her freshman season was similar to Katie Lou's, who started 22 of 37 games and averaged 23+ minutes, finishing the season as a starter. Megan Walker's situation appears very different. Barring injury to Nurse, Dangerfield, or Williams, she has practically no shot at cracking the starting lineup her freshman season. That's no indication, of course, of her eventual impact over her UConn career. More than a few of UConn's most prominent players never started as freshmen, most recently Gabby Williams and Kelly Faris. [/QUOTE]
