I actually took a look at some of their boxscores, their roster, and watched a few highlights. Fennelly is still their coach. Every single one of their starters has attempted 60+ three pointers. One of their inside players has 114 three attempts (Christofferson); she's the only player who gets significant minutes over 6' tall. Their three other players that tall, one (Baier) suffered a season-ending knee injury in December; one is listed primarily as a volleyball player (Matlock); and the last, Jensen, is a freshman who has played 30 minutes all year.
In the game against Jayne Appel in Berkeley, their primary offense was the three or the short jumper in the lane; they didn't have a real post game, but rotated through the post and often tried to drag our posts out of the lane by bringing their posts high and running high pick action at the elbows, then pulling up rather than face the help defense underneath, unless the rotation was late, in which case they'd go straight to the hoop. I was sitting under the basket watching it (as well as watching it against Michigan State and 6'7" Alyssa DeHaan two nights before). It's a style that is really dependent on jumpers going down.
