Regarding That Scrimmage....

...was Destinee' on the floor? I've read that she feels she's "80-90% there," but feels her stamina is behind, which is to be expected, given how long she's been on the shelf.

That said, if Destinee is still working into shape and Katlyn is not yet on the floor (she apparently pulled a muscle according to MM in a recent video interview), will that put Abby on the floor as a starter with Marta, Mik, Sam and Anaya? Cant see any other option really. Abby, after all, has the most ND experience of that group.


Here is Something Different

How about running the old 2-1-2. Marta and Anaya backcourt, MIK in the
middle and Sam and Cosgrove on the wings. Cosgrove would love to take the
3's...Just a thought.

SEG/Chief


Destinee did not play pick-up, but did play a few minutes

in the scrimmage. She looked rusty, but her athleticism was obvious. Abbie looked good enough to start, but bringing energy from the bench seems to be an ideal role for her. She is now looking to shoot when open.


Thx for Report. Not Saying Abby Should Start...

..but thinking that if Katlyn's not back from her injury (ies) and Destinee is not in proper shape at the beginning of the year, it may be the logical step to put Abby in as the starter until either Katlyn or Destinee is ready.

I agree that Abby's energy can give a shot off the bench. Am also glad to see she's looking for her shot. She has excellent form on her free throws, so she should have a decent jumper when left alone.

to me is much better than everybody seems to give her credit for. I was at every home game and watched almost of the rest on TV.
She has a really good release and shooting motion. When she was in last year
she would almost always defer to someone else to take the shot but I could see that she could have gotten or taken the shot most of the time. Stay tuned,I think she's going to surprise a lot of people with her improvement
this year.


She needs to demand the ball more.

She needs to take twice as many shots as last year. Her shooting form looks good.
