3 point percentage was a lot better the year before. Hopefully can be closer to that.

Akron is the Zips, Kent St is I think the Golden Flashes....

As the French say, le mieux est l'ennemi du bien.

In English...give the girl a chance, why doncha?

And, in body language, this means All Y'all.

Welcome to You, Ms Babbitt.

Hopefully we might be less reliant on 3 pt shooting and can have more dynamic scoring.

Nishna Valley BlackHawk?

Babbitt’s father, Nathan Babbitt, played at Nishna Valley High School. Her mother, Jennifer (Deirks), went to Camanche. From the DM Reg article the two met while attending Dana College, Blair NE. Mya's parents used to live in Nebraska and she schooled at Millard South, near Papillion.

Dana College came to a recent sad end. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_College
