Well, there\'s also Walteia Rolle, their major post sub.
They match up really well height-wise - Breland 6\'3", starting center Chay Shegog (and no, I\'m not making that up either) is 6\'5", and Rolle is 6\'6". Â That\'s their post rotation, along with Laura Broomfield, 6\'1". Â Krista Gross and Tierra Ruffin-Pratt generally play 3 at 6\'0" and 5\'10", respectively. Â Lucas is 5\'8", and DeGraffenreid is 5\'6" at the point. Â So we should be able to make entry passes over the top, as long as we can break their pressure.
Breland (who\'s come back from treatment for Hodgkin\'s), Lucas and DeGraffenreid are all seniors.
Of the players who get the majority of minutes, only Lucas has hit more than 30% of her 3-pointers, and she\'s only at 33%. (Team is at 29% as a whole). They only shoot about 43% overall, but make up for it by averaging 11 steals and outrebounding the opposition (as I said, they hammered Kentucky on the boards 55-31).
Ball security, that\'s the thing.
