A reprinting of the account on GoStanford.com, but the main thing, it's a national press publication
Quote:Williams played 4,336 career minutes, while fifth-year guard Jump is now at 3,072.That makes Jump even more astonishing. She has played only about 2/3 the time of the last record-setter.

One thing Tara mentioned in the presser is that Jump "came back six weeks early from surgery." Did we know that Jump had surgery in the off season, and what it was?
Lots of praise for Jump--going way beyond her shooting. "She is the glue out there."
On Talana, "They wanted to sag off of Talana and double down on Cam and Kiki, and she hit a three, and another three--she wouldn't have that. That is a real key for us going forward, that she looks to be aggressive offensively." So Tara agrees with everyone on this board, but has confidence that Lepolo is gaining confidence.
Tara confirmed that Harriel and Ogden should be back for the Cal game.
