We made the win today look pretty easy. I haven’t had a chance to review the box score and watch the game a second time. Lily had 20 points which was a big day for her. Sid hit some three-pointers that seem to really help us. Moren has forgotten more Basketball than I ever knew of course, but I would like to have her teach me the benefits of playing the starters so late into the game when you’re ahead by 30. What little I saw of faith and Valentine makes me very hopeful for the future. on the negative side yard and went down with some type of a leg injury, but she did walk off the court. She never came back in, but that may have been because of the score rather than she couldn’t come in. We’ll have to wait and see on that.

In my opinion, for this game at least, the starters were in and playing zone in preparation for UCLA next week.

Wiseman looks outclassed and I’m not sure she has a future here. If she does it will be limited and not until her junior year.

Yarden had ice on her ankle. I was afraid it was her knee.
 
Disappointing to hear your take on Faith. Hope it proves wrong. Syd Fenn is redshirted this year. Have to wait and see on her. Strip is out of eligibility but Lilly will be back.
Maya is our only big commitment for next year.
Syd Parish shot great today. 5-6 and 3-4 from distance. Plays with a big brace on her left knee.
Team was. 500 from 3 today

I'll.second the opinion on Faith Wiseman. Even at garbage time she looks like she has no business being out there. I can see literally no scenario where she gets any meaningful minutes. That's too bad. Coach is going to have to find another post player in the portal this spring.

Hey, she's a freshman. Cmon. Jfc
 
That's why she needs to redshirt. No?
I'm asking because I don't know. I never saw any of her high school play. What was her game about? Did she have a mid range game? Could she put the ball on the floor? Was she a back to the bucket post player? Was she proficient running the floor.... Could she finish at the rim? There's currently nothing obvious in terms of what she brings.

I'm not trying to bash her. Like I said, at this juncture, she goes in at garbage time and she looks the part of someone you put in at garbage time. I'm sure she's an outstanding young woman and maybe by her jr year, with a lot of improvement, she could become a rotation player... At best. We needed a post player that could develop. Somebody who would share post time with Lilly next season. I think this was a miss.

I know nothing about her game other than she played at Indian Creek so she probably dwarfed most of her HS competition. But she would have been recruited with AAU competition as well and you would think that would have provided more opportunities to see her against similar competition.

I’ll say the longer than expected minutes was a remedy for the stints of inconsistent play earlier this fall.

I'd hate to give up on someone after only ~20 minutes of play all year, especially someone that tall and long. Give her some time to acclimate to the college game.

I agree it’s worth investing in her development, but we’re going to need someone else to play in front of her next year once Strip leaves.
