We did suffer some in the Ole Miss game because of they were quick enough at least early in the game to get in the passing lanes and pass denial because were just physically larger than most teams on the perimeter. When we brought in Salary and Walker that helped us quote a bit especially since both played well in the game. Adding Miles and Wynn next season is going to help up so much more we'll be so much more versatile team next season with the ability to match up to any teams style of play. We'll have post players Puckett and Striplin that have range to the three point line. I look for us to be projected as a top three team in the SEC next season.We will be a much better defensive team with quickness at the guard position along with better penetration on offense. when Destiny is on the court we are a quicker team. Cannot wait until we get some true quickness. On the brighter side if we are mentally ready we can beat anyone, but it just seems we lose focus so easy sometimes. When the tourney starts no one will want to play Tennessee because we are a dangerous team, the tourney is about matchups. UCONN will agree with that as they did not match up well against Ark.
The Panthers overcame a triple-double by Geneva County standout Karoline Striplin. The Tennessee signee finished with 29 points, 15 rebounds, 10 blocks and added six steals and four assists.
Striplin set one AHSAA girls state record and nearly tied another. She established the record for consecutive free throws made during a season, reaching 44 straight after going 6-for-6. The previous mark was 42 by Cullman's Anna Katherine Eastman in 2018-19.
The 44 made in a row by Striplin tied for eighth most nationally with Stephanie Wagner of Elkhart (Ind.) Jimtown (2007) and Ashley Slade of Kinglsey (Mich) in 2008., according to the NFHS Record Book
Needs to work with @Coach Jumper on 3p %. 26% = no bueno.
She'll be in great hands with the LV coaching staff/system.
I'll take the 48 percent overall and not worry about the three point shooting.Needs to work with @Coach Jumper on 3p %. 26% = no bueno.
