in each other's presence. Don't know if that will translate into going to the same school, but there looks to be a lot of like and respect there.
Funny how one year makes a difference in how much more ebullient Hailey and Paige are than their one-year older "bigs."

Even a day later, I'm still remarkably impressed with Paige's day yesterday...blocked shots, long three's outdoors when everyone else had lost their legs.

My next-day thought on Sam: she wins games. You want her on your team.

ND needs to beat UConn twice and win the championship

again this season to demonstrate current dominance. One should never underestimate UConn and Geno, but making them look less of a “sure thing “ would not hurt ND recruiting in the 2020 class and beyond.

is shot blocking. That's no feint praise because her passing, vision, ball handling, and shooting are astounding. While she's a wizard with the ball, I can't remember ever seeing anyone consistently move so quickly and athletically in blocking shots from every angle. She has extraordinary body control and quickness to go with those elastic arms.
