Just home from the game.  Yes, I had the same thoughts about Harriel and Van Gytenbeek.  Van Gytenbeek did not seem to be in the house.

Iriafan is still a little green and missed a couple she could have made, but she does seem to have better moves under the basket than Belibi or Prechtel.   A lot of "bigs" that have passed through never had that fluidity around the basket that Brink and probably Iriafan have.  Highly promising for the future.

I think the most fascinating aspect of the game was watching how Tara defended Anaya James.  Lacie was on James early in the game, then Lexie took over.  I think Lexie did a better job defending James.  Late in the game Emma-Nnopu came in to defend James.  Wilson was considered our top perimeter defender--something of a defensive specialist, but that assignment did not go to her this game.
