Said Asia used to be ferocious as a freshman in one-on-one games. Glad to here she still "has it". <br /><br />PaulieCardinal Couplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565155435705858363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-68685603025647423552013-04-06T16:17:31.778-04:002013-04-06T16:17:31.778-04:00Just got back from open practice and picking up ti...Just got back from open practice and picking up tickets for tomorrow.<br /><br />Random thoughts from today's Cal and Cardinal practices:<br /><br />- UConn has a bunch of fans here. They outnumber the other three schools combined so far. But Cardinal ticket staff says we should have at least 1,000 here Sunday.<br /><br />- I'm not very familiar with Cal's roster, but #23 Clarendon is obviously a player. Very athletic and shoots it well. Cal's bigs didn't look particularly tall or athletic but are all solid - not a string-bean among them.<br /><br />- It was great to see Laura Terry at the team hotel and Michelle Clark-Heard at the arena. I was lucky enough to get to have a long talk with Julie Hermann at the autograph session. She's awesome!<br /><br />- At the autograph session Coach Walz assured me that he brought two dress shirts this time...lol.<br /><br />- Coach Walz, Coach Norman and Coach Neubauer, along with a few other staffers, were wearing T-shirts with the following on the back: #PARTYCRASHERS<br /><br />- Asia Taylor was in uniform and participated fully in the practice. She didn't look very rusty to me. Tia Gibbs was also in uniform but just assisted with the drills, didn't practice.<br /><br />- Sara Hammond missed a bunch of shots early in the practice. I'm pretty sure that I heard her say, laughing, that she could build a house with all the shots she'd bricked.<br /><br />- Nita Slaughter, Jude and (especially) Shoni were knocking down shots from everywhere. And Bria Smith made five or six threes in a row.<br /><br />- At the end of 50 minutes of spirited, structured practice, Walz called the team to mid-court and they spent about 4 minutes tossing up mid-court shots. Laughing, joking and high-fiving Walz and each other whenever one went in. Walz even took a few 15-foot jumpers. He still has a nice shooting touch.

They thanked us for sending Kim Mulkey back to her garden.<br /><br />It's a great day to be a Cardinal!<br /> Mike Dnoreply@blogger.com
