I especially enjoyed when Rose, Woodson, and McKinney were on the floor together. You can tell they enjoy causing chaos. Looking forward to getting more games in to see the improvement.

You can tell Johnson can score the ball just by her free throws and one mid range jumper. Its a beautiful shot. Wonder what is keeping her off the floor? Could be a match up thing, if they need more scoring we may see her more. Nice problem to have.

Add Holloway and Johnson to Rose, McKinney and Woodson and you could have a great press. It would be a great run and gun platoon.
 

In watching this team last night, it looks like they might have more depth than any Gopher team in recent memory. Solid contributions from just about everyone off the bench. Stewart's ability to hit the three will stretch some defenses and I loved her turn around fades in the lane. I also really liked the fact that Woodson looked to take the ball to the hoop. McKinney and Holloway very athletic and along with Rose, should create some chaos on defense. Will be interesting to see the rotation Coach P settles on going into conference play. Should be plenty of time to do that with the mediocre non-conference schedule. Vermont should provide more of a challenge than Central Connecticut.

These girls sure get after it on the defensive end and crash the boards. Surprised we haven’t seen McKenna Johnson in the first half; could just be a matter of how to find minutes with the talent this year.
Eventually I could see Tori McKinney slide into that starting spot over GG. That girl works her butt off.

Is there a game in the non conference that we think will be more competitive to give an idea how the team will fair in conference play?
