“Our team is going to be quicker, faster and more up-tempo,” said Caldwell. “We have more players that can handle the basketball. As we got back at it in the summer, we knew our goal was to be playing in April. Championships are won in the offseason. If this offseason is any indication, we are excited about the fact that we have tremendous players and competitors coming back.”
quote:
“It was one of the best experiences I have ever been affiliated with as a player or coach,” said Caldwell. “There were a lot of collaborations between the two programs and they were able to bring that out in our team. They put us in positions we weren’t comfortable in and it forced us to stay together as a team. Our team became closer because of it. Through that adversity we became better as teammates and people.”
quote:
“Shanece McKinney has established herself as one of the best defensive centers in the game,” said Caldwell. “Jeanne Kenney you can’t say enough about her leadership. Theresa is someone who has gotten better every year and is obviously the SEC’s leading scorer.”
