The culture is the most important thing with this group, they were challenged and they responded and played hard. on Saturday. The comments Pedon said after the game were great "I saw leadership and growth and some connectiveness and them taking the wheel, which is what I want. I want our teams to be very player driven." Coach G is in her 6th season with the women and she just said she's seeing the same with her women for the first time. Pedon said he knew they didn't have many leaders coming in and getting the leadership, buy-in and culture is important.
Krikke gives us problems the same as Mast because we don't have a big who can stop them and control the paint. The last 2 games of 12 and 9 turnovers shows improvement in that area but we still lack a big who can control the paint. Depth has hurt this team this year but for next year with Mal, DB, Luke and then 2 of the freshman who I think will give minutes in the backcourt. You then take Liam and Kendall and put them at the 4 you can then go get a post in the route of a juco big. Imo with a proper juco big it allows for a guys to fit properly in certain spots and you are a lot deeper, same goes with the backcourt. Suddenly that gives us 8-10 guys for minutes next year.
Sandage being out hurts this team currently but Mal, DB and Luke you can really grow and get the experience and we really only lose Seneca. With the off-season and growing this team can get better in the next year or 2 the same way that the Trees have gotten better this year.
