In 2022 Stanford was a top ranked team with an embarrassment of front court riches and returning the entire front court that won the previous year’s championship. Betts was playing behind some serious WNBA level competition - I miss those days.
Seriously:
Cameron Brink - Jr
Kiki Iriafen - Soph
Ashten Prechtel - Sr
Fran Bellibi - Sr
Lauren Betts - Frosh
Could TVD have shown more patience and handed out more PT in blowouts and against lesser teams-sure, but there weren’t a lot of minutes to go around. Betts was a frosh big learning the game and learning how to play on the big stage of a championship contender for a meticulous coach. She did still get 10 minutes per game and would have made a big leap in 2023 with Cam skipping her Senior year to go pro.
How quickly it all disappeared, right?
