At the open practice. Cam not playing, shooting free throws on the side. Everyone else playing hard. Brooke has made several really pretty threes, Elena a couple of wow steals. Hannah doing a bit of driving to basket. frosh all look good. And big change, Harriel has ditched the blonde hair. She's looking energetic, some nice moves
Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to more updates from those in attendance tonight and Saturday. Season is nearing quickly.
Two updates from last night. 1) In the panel discussion (Mary Murphy was the moderator, asking questions of each of the five), there was a lot of enthusiasm and excitement from the players, very positive comments. I thought Brooke's response to the question of what her goal was for the season -- at first, sort of formulaic, like win the pac 12, national championship (which was what Cam had said), but then she said something that I thought was really significant, and was missing in the team in the latter part of last year -- she said, have fun, just enjoy playing, have fun. It they go into the games with that attitude, this team can do much. 2) at the reception, Tara was asked about the freshmen, and she went on and on about them, all three of them. Interesting was her positive comments re Agara, who has received the least press of the three. She was very high on her, as well as Clardy and Ogden -- but she also said that they are still making the HS to college transition. All signs are that they may receive significant playing time, but none will be starting any time soon.
Looks like Cam's ankle injury several weeks ago is more serious than some suggested. Is she doubtful for the exhibition game on Nov. 1st. or is it day-to-day? Not the way to start this season with your best player on the sidelines or playing limited minutes. And don't forget, Indiana is not that far away.
