Interesting points about Bosgana. She is potentially the more versatile player. Her stats, however, were often in garbage time. Jump was doing her thing in prime time. Even when not scoring, she was occupying a prime defender.
Brooke Demete was the player with the most minutes off the bench. I think Demetre and Bosgana should both get lots of minutes and an opportunity to shine. Both could play a variety of positions, including, if needed, at the 4. Not much depth there.
I think the upcoming team could have great chemistry. Looking forward to seeing what the freshmen can offer.

Quote:It turns out that Hannah played over 79% of the 1400 minutes available. Elena played just under 18% of the minutes available. To equate the stats you have to multiply all of Elena's by 4.4. The results are:
Hannah Bosgana
Pts/Game 11.2 17.2
Rebounds/Game 1.9 7.5
Assist/Game 1.3 2.7
TOs/Game 0.7 1.3
Steals/Game 0.9 1.8
Blocks/Game 0.1 0.4
Assists/TOs 1.9 2.0
FG% 46% 45%
3 Pt % 44% 31%
FT % 82% 75%
There are many arguments that can be made why this is not a fair comparison. Would Elena really have multiplied her statistics by 4.4 if she had played as many minutes? However, the case can also be made that if Elena had the confidence of the coach to play many more minutes her confidence might have increased as well as her ability to play better with her teammates. Whatever your conclusion I think it is safe to say Elena should have played more and Hannah a little less although we need them both this year. Clearly, Elena is the better rebounder and seems to be a better defender.
