Arizona women's basketball news and notes: The real impact of Lauren Ware being out for the season, freshman adjustments and more.
PJ Brown When Lauren Ware had season-ending surgery on her knee in the beginning of November, no one, not even Arizona coach Adia Barnes, could have imagined how that would affect the Wildcats.
Still, there are times when taller opponents will target Arizona's undersized front line. For example: Washington State's three 6-foot-plus starters combined for 46 points and 26 rebounds in the Cougars' victory over the Wildcats on Sunday. “Lauren actually is doing phenomenal,” Barnes said. “And I'm really excited. That's one of the things people don't realize: We lost our starting post player. Our best defender. One of our smartest players. Our best communicator by far. That was a big loss.
While Reese said “it’s a dream” for everyone to be named to the team, the accolade doesn’t give you a leg up on adjusting to the college game.When Reese came to Arizona, the program was in rebuilding mode from the bottom of the Pac-12. The Wildcats had won only six games the previous year, and there was a spot waiting for her in the starting lineup.
