All of our top-5 drafted players were immediately obvious stars from the beginning. No one like that on the team now; maybe Avani Brandt is the closest -- turned into a solid defender.

I was pleased to see that both Mia Fishel (drafted) and Amanda Cromwell (coaching the San Diego Wave) have left UCLA and will trouble us no more.

What is more impressive is Stanford has had the last four No. 1 picks: Andi Sullivan, Tierra Davidson, Sophia Smith, and now Girma.

In Tierna's year, we had 3 in the top 10, and would have had 4 if Alana Cook hadn't signed overseas.
