Bob, I noticed what appears to be the return of a walk-on from years past in the most recent WBB video on the Fast Break Club website. It's the one featuring an interview with Coach Tara while the girls are going through their practice regimen. She's number 31, but there's no 31 on the website's listed roster.

I noticed her because of the distinctive bounce she has in the way she runs -- so did one of the last two walk-ons we had two or three years ago. She was of Indian heritage and I think her name was Kiran something. She was from a Texas high school and her mother was a doctor (pediatrician?). At the time, I watched several videos of her h.s. games and was quite impressed, thinking this gal is pretty good, she could help us. I think I even said her style reminded me of Jillian Harmon.

So much for my eye for talent, I guess, as she only got in a couple of games that year. However, she did play well, IMHO, in those few games. If it is her, she should be a junior or senior now, and it looks like she might have grown an inch or two. I think she was a 5'10"/5'11" G/W, and she appears to be 6' or better now. Anyway, I'll be happy to see her (and my eye for talent) get another chance. As it is, we have two roster spots open this year, and you never know about injuries.
