We know our strength is going to be in the backcourt, so I’ll start there. I’m hopeful that Paige and Azzi will return fully healthy. I feel really confident in these two positions on the floor, and think we have as good of a backcourt as anybody.

I like how the graduation of our seniors opens up the 3 spot for Ducharme. It allows us to add another proven scoring threat to the mix, and she provides length on defense. Swapping CW with Ducharme makes us longer. But we need her to refine her three point shot, so that we have three legit outside threats on the floor. I expect the game will slow down for her and she’ll be a delight to watch.

Aaliyah turned it on, and I think she’s turned the corner. We just need her to be a menace on the boards and continue to improve at defending without fouling.

Dorka returning is huge, but she needs to get a lot stronger. If she can finish through contact, she’ll be 10x better than what we say this year.

Those are my starters. I expect Nika will return with the same energy and hopefully a more refined offensive game. And I’m hopeful our freshman and Amari can challenge for playing time. Each seems to be quite talented.
