BTW: am I crazy, or has Belibi's back-to-basket moves flourished dramatically in the last few games? I recall in early fall games that she rarely tried that and it often didn't work, but tonight I was getting flashbacks of the Ogwumikes having their way with scoring down low.

I think she is doing much better.  But she still scores more easily when driving from elbow, rather than receiving the ball with her back to the basket.  Today she was guarded primarily by another freshman, so that may have evened things up a bit and given her more chances.

Next year I expect we will see both Prechtel and Belibi on the floor together at the same time, and it could prove to be a great offensive combo.  With Prechtel's jumpshot, she could sit at the elbow and play the high low game with Belibi's jumping ability at the low post.
