Alanna Smith:Overnight success years in the making
Likely going to see 5-6 Aussie girls in the sweet 16/elite 8 this season.
Smith-Stanford
Wallace-Baylor
Yaeger, Maley-Oregon
Horvat-Ucla
Bibby-Mississippi state
Maybe Mangakahia at Syracuse.
Another great article LC, good stuff. Confidence is a wonderful thing that many Aussie kids going to college in the US either don't quite get to enjoy or build up in the ensuing years as it appears Alanna is doing.
It will be fun watching her and many others this season as college hoops is invaded by more and more of our talent.
Like many of our proteges in the past, the US coaches really like the way our kids play, their character, team work and high basketball IQ. More recently we are sending a higher level of athleticism as well, so the positive signs continue to improve for the future of Aussie basketball IMHO...
