    AP Preseason Top 25: 2021-22

    I think the Gophers take that next step this year as long as they remain healthy. OUr guards bring another year of experience and are ready to lead, our bench got deeper, Kadi has another year under her, got some inside help with a grad transfer, got another shooter to complement Hubbard and...

    Gopher Sports: Welcoming the Newbies 2021-22 Season

    yes defense killed us last year, but I dont think we are talking about a athletic defender, we are talking tall, so I see a lot of zone when she is in the game, otherwise she would struggle in pick n roll defense

    the fact these two top young players are leaving Hopkins tells me not all is well in Hopkins world. I think having all those hopkins kids on the same aau team is going to bite them, especially when a few of them want to play for North tartan. The way Hopkins finished the state tournament last...

    2021-2022 season.

    My observation is the coaches have went out and got some really good guards now and in the future, but 4's and 5's on this team just isn't there yet athletically and that should be their focus go forward. I like Sconniers, but defensively to date not a presence and offense is still evolving...

    That is probably the one weakness in her game right now, but she has other skills that most kids dont have - size, speed, coachable, leader.

    I see Deja sliding into that 3rd guard spot in place of Hubbard.. She brings length to that position we desperately need. if i were to make an early prediction it would be Jazz / Smith / katie Scalia / Caroline Deja / hubbard Alexia smith is somewhere in the mix in all 3 spots, I'm...

    2023 Recruiting

    These kids seem like mid majors right now. If the gophers want to be in the upper half of the conference they are going to need to identify the type of player they want, in particular length. I like Tessa, she is an elite player but coming back from a bad injury should be watched closely...

    2021-2022 season.

    if we just had a legit '3' we would have potential... Christina Carr could be that person, I'm not sure if MN has any interest.. She might want to go big time though.. they have MN roots so might be possible.

    2021-2022 season.

    I wonder why she only played 7 games this year? covid? She might be a rim protector that we desperately need.. but I will say if she cant defend pick n rolls it will be hard to get minutes unless we play zone. I like the pickup, have nothing to lose and somehow we need to get better up front

    2022 Recruiting

    Heyer best asset is her motor, she is always active, probably one of the best over 6' motors I have seen in AAU. If i were to have a concern with her game is what does her game look like at the next level.? She is a back to the basket kid in HS, can she step out 15ft and handle the ball or...

    Hopkins can not shoot! not one of those kids has the correct form except Nnaji. that was not a Hopkins team, their offense was slow, their defense did not create turnovers. Great job by Chaska, they are the better team.. except free throws, ouch.

    NCAA Tournament Games Sweet Sixteen Games 2021

    AZ defense was great, but lets face it McDonald looked like the best player in the country. Paige is a great player, but playing for UCONN's storied tradition gave her that extra boost. I want to see parity in womens basketball, my preference would of been for Paige to stay home and play for...

    End of Season/Current Program Fan Grades

    Eric Boogard pretty much nails it... continuity within the lineup could easily be the difference between winning and losing. There is such a fine line between playing to play and playing to win at this level. We have to get to the point where we are playing to win, whatever that takes, but to...
