I caught a glimpse of the live stream that took place during two scrimmages for the trials. Several players stood out to me and several didn't. It seemed like Joyner Holmes, Megan Walker, Chennedy Carter, Ty Harris, Crystal Dangerfield, and Ruthy Hebard were the most comfortable out of all the players. They played relaxed and under control and made good decisions. the rest seemed like they were going through the trials for the first time but USA has certain roles required for this team. Christyn Williams was not a surprise for making the team, despite being the youngest she clearly proved she belonged. She was diving for loose balls, knocking down 3's, getting steals and communicating on both ends of the floor. Coombs played well throughout the trials I'm pretty sure she should have made it over Sutton but I guess the committee saw something I didn't. Reili Richardson is a sleeper. plays PG for ASU but has range and lit the building up from behind the arc. Bella Alarie moves very well for a 6'4'' post player. She also has good range and ball handling ability. the surprise though was Kayla Overbeck making the team. she is a 6'1'' forward for Vanderbilt and is tough and hardnosed as they come , I just didn't think her lack of height and underdeveloped skill set would put her through. We'll see if she can have an impact in any way. Westbrook not making the team was a shock as well. She will be playing the PG position next year in Knoxville. She was VERY uncomfortable playing off the ball. she seems to like to have the ball in her hands and make plays for others. She had tough competition to beat out at the PG position with two college experienced PG making the team.
