La Velle E Neal: Whalen Needs to Keep Core Together

[Ignatius L Hoops]

Lindsay Whalen will experience basketball success again (if she can keep Gophers' young core together)

Lindsay Whalen's Gophers program needs to show some traction this season, and that'll come with development and roster stability.

"There's been some days you just take it as it comes," Whalen said. "There's been some tough days. There's been some great days."

Whalen believes she's learned and grown since her first year. It would help this project if that growth turns into more victories this season. The Gophers won 15 games last season and looking at her roster it's hard to imagine more than that this season. Where is the scoring and rebounding coming from?

It is going to depend on team chemistry and player attitudes. We will find out if Lindsay offends someone's ego or whether there are no bad apple(s) on the team.
