Message: [QUOTE="Barkin Out, post: 5091567, member: 10481"] whoops! Missed Paige too! Or P as she is referred to on the floor. I guess that matches the new Madison Reed color. Q looked good, played fast. Made some steals blocks and rebounds in the 5x5. More comfortable in the offense. She’s a fighter. Sported the pony tail both days. Like Ash, she appears super motivated to earn PT and played hard. There’s a lot of competition. Aubrey was the only injured player, other than Yanna, that exhibited obvious signs of her injury. She still has a limp coming down stairs. She participated in some drills on Sat. But also spent a fair amount of time icing the knee and encouraging her teammates. I’ve seen people post timelines of mid- late winter for a return. It’s amazing how hard these kids work to rehab. Follow up note on analytics and load management for the players. The kids all wear digital tags to track/log their movement. This is used to keep their practice and conditioning on schedule- if they go over one day, the data helps identify when they need to adjust the plans over the next few days to allow for recovery. Hudy also has them wearing additional sensors on their shoes that track the forces (acceleration and compression) on their feet. She is using the data as part of the PhD she is working on. When combined with the recovery and nutrition guidance the kids receive, it’s easy to see how the parents are confident the kids are getting the best possible care and development assistance, and don’t buy in to any of the conspiracy theories about injuries. Hudy seemed like a serious sport scientist with very little ego- focused on collecting facts and providing best available data driven advice. I would certainly trust her and the rest of the group with my kids. Last note on practice- Geno has a small army of managers at each practice. Using the word “Orchestrated” to describe it is appropriate because there are so many people filling different roles. The managers log every shot from every player with location data. He gets reporting showing who hits what % from where so that he’s able to have fact based discussions with each player about where she has the green to shoot- and what’s a “great shot” for her. They have also added a realtime shot analysis system this year to the hoops at Worth. It tracks the trajectory of shots, recording the angle at which the ball enters the hoop. It audible announces the angle in real time so the player gets immediate feedback to adjust to the 45 degree optimum. It can also be used to announce the left right variance from target. This system is new to the team this year. [/QUOTE]
