Is that good? Or a consolation prize.
It’s way better than just good, and anything but a consolation. The opportunity to train with a group like that is prize enough. On top of that Nikki has at least a 1 in 3 shot at something over the moon good. A great opportunity to learn and a chance for more. Doesn’t get much better.
1. not sure what it would be a consolation prize for. It is huge.
but she has to make the team first.
Fisher again is the coach for the PAC.
3. I think Rabbit means consolation for not having made one of the collegiate teams.
To add to what noblesol said, this is a far superior roster than those of the collegiate teams that were named, with a mix of pros and collegians vying for spots. Nikki will be tested and if she makes it, then WOW. But she needs to take care of business first. Good luck to her.
Nikki making this team means she was among the best of the best, this is the highest team she could have made, but Eckerman/Holston are good as well and tough competition.
I hope she makes the team and starts, one big advantage she has over Eckerman and Holston is Nikki plays much better floor defense than those two, it’s not even close.
my bad, was thinking like NFL practice squad. congrats to Nikki.
Wishing Nikki lots and lots of luck, as she is up against some tough competition in Florida’s Alex Holston and Haley Eckerman from Texas. But I agree that Nikki has the edge. Go Wahine !!!
Katie and Emily are AVCA All-Americans!
