That’s wishful thinking, even for anybody. Most of the priority to the tall players 6’4″ and over usually would go to the big league schools. It’s hard to attract those kinds of players here, especially because of the concerns of travel mostly. Traveling is kind of stressful for any player in the east or midwest, especially because of how far you have to go to from there to here. We’re hundreds of miles off the ocean surface from the mainland. But likewise, I agree with your assessment on Coach B needing to step up her recruiting. It is always hard when you can’t attract 4 or 5-star recruits when we’re always having to fight our way to the top. But yeah, the next set of recruits should look promising, especially with another post at 6’2″, and some versatility with 5’10” and 5’11” in terms of height. It’s promising, but can she build their confidence with the bunch that she has on hand? We’ll just have to wait and see.

I did not see the game, but one thing I learned is that the Penn players were much taller than the Wahine. 6-2/6-4 forwards and centers were three to four deep. I mean strikingly so it tells me that Laura really needs to step up her recruiting.
