Considering how DeJonai has been playing, maybe those boxes have boots for everyone on the team.
Like swimming in drag suits, or running with ankle weights.

I actually was wondering if Tara has been trying to reduce wear and tear on Carrington during the last part of the season.  She routinely has been getting fewer minutes than Williams or Smith, and she goes out of games even some times when they are in doubt.  It could just be that with her aggressive play style Tara wants to reduce the chance she will get injured.  She always has a couple of plays a game when I can almost hear a football announcer saying "Carrington the ball carrier..."

Then again, it may be that as good as Carrington has been this year, there are more reasonable alternatives available in her position than there are for Williams or Smith.  It is a second Hull or Anna Wilson coming in behind her, usually.

I do hope she is fully healthy.  Too many bad memories of Jayne, Karlie etc. not being their usual selves at the end of the season.

The ESPN crew picks us over Missouri State 4-0.  That seems dangerous to me.

"The Lady Bears have had the luxury of playing two teams (DePaul and Iowa State) with a similar style in the opening two rounds. Stanford will play inside-out. How Missouri State handles the Cardinal's size and length will determine how competitive the game is. -- Charlie Creme"
