Don't worry...I'm enjoying the present immensely. But a glance into the future of the WBB program is full of extreme potential as the current sophomore class progresses.
22-23
If Ashley chooses to take her COVID year, it is potentially the entire team (minus Frederick) returning with more experience. I would expect noticeable improvements in Diew, Jordao, and Zingaro. Maggie would hopefully be healthy all year long and we'd have additional guard depth with Fritz and Dawkins. It would provide the option to full court press and still allow fresh legs at the end for our starting guards. This is likely a top 5 team. Even without Ashley returning, this will be a great team.
23-24
Maggie and Morgan could be COVID year super seniors. Assuming Izzy and Maggie Vick develop, we could have 3 capable upper Jr/Sr inside players and 2 top-50 recruit freshmen (Brown and Bristow) to join them. With our guards, this team will be hard to beat. By this time, Lexi and Emily will be 4th year players and able to replace the loss of Ashley's points.
24-25 - this is the year with the most potential (but lots of things would have to fall into place)
Imagine Lexi, Emily, Aubrey, and Diew as 5th year super seniors. Add 4 more capable Sophomore/Junior guards in Fritz, Dawkins, Jackson, and Kelsey Joens. It would be hard to find playing time for all of these outside players.
Our inside game would feature two seniors and two athletic sophomores. I think that by the time Izzy Zingaro is a senior, she will have developed into our best true post player since Anna Prins (or dare I say even since Angie Welle?). Izzy is a rebounding machine and we have seen flashes of her offensive skills.
