In limited minutes she looks like she's got a plus first step. I am optimistic.

Yes, and still can't be 100% recovered from her knee. 

IMO, our off-season work in the weight room is exceptional in this program, as well... Holmes is a GREAT example of that. She was in awful condition when she got here. (maybe that sounds harsh, but it's true)... since then you can see how she has morphed her body and gotten into prime condition. I think it's incredible how she can play 34-36mpg when she needs to. 

Then... you have Berger and CMM who have turned into FREAKS athletically. Like those girls are STRONG, especially for their size. Truly defined muscle definition and that doesn't happen often in females. I love the idea of Lexus, Lilly, Henna, and Garzon developing this off-season. IMO-- that is the only "weakness" to Yardon's game-- just a tick slow/tick weak. 

As you said, every year is promising for IUWBB. Our player development is a HUGE reason for that! I'm just so impressed.

Garzon is destined to be a first team All American. She can do everything and has savant level basketball IQ coupled with general 'bad-assery'.

T. Buss and A. Cahill really kept themselves in shape and the grit and toughness kinda played a big part in turning the corner for IU women basketball….of course along with T. Moren, staff and other players.
