Super proud. She's doing incredibly well. Top 15 in the league in scoring, top 25 in rebounding, one of the leaders in 3pt%, fg%, and free throws. She's loving her teammates, coaches and absolutely loves the school. They are a super young team, with most of their contributors being sophomores or freshman, with no seniors. So wins have been tough to come by, but most of the games have been close and very competitive. They took Willamette (currently tied for first in the league) to overtime and only lost by 4, so the potential is definitely there.
Glad she’s finding the good in the situation. My daughter’s program has never been VERY good. Finish 3rd one year 8th the next and so on. We researched that when she was picking schools. Gonzaga/Pepperdine/Santa Clara etc. had better history of winning, but she picked the best spot for her. As long as SHE’S killing it, I’m happy FAMS!
Absolutely. That's exactly the way we feel. We told her to get a great degree and make as many contacts as possible. And have as much fun as you can doing the sport you love. That's all we cared about. Now, she's missing playing with her sisters. So she's bugging them to come play with her... So maybe that'll be something to look forward to...
FAMS! You gotta make sure you save all the tweets and IG posts and press releases. I’m sure you do. Man, I screen grab everything. Probably do some cool photo book for her when she is all done. Obviously the videos and pics too!
Also bro, you gotta get some swag made to embarrass her! My daughter found a company’s that will make gear with her on it and she gets a % of sales! You gotta get one of your girls
Some clips from Kaitlen's latest game @ Whitworth. Second game of a back to back, and feeling better after playing the prior game with food poisoning.
Thanks for noticing! She has worked the left so much that she actually prefers to go left. In large part, because defenses tend to push right handed players left.
Good game for Kait tonight. Got her 3rd start and most of her stats in the first quarter. They were up, so she wound up sitting most of the second half. She's really starting to be on the attack and had the Pios out and running early. I love to see it
Kaitlen's been doing very well. She's been starting at point guard the last couple of weeks. Teams are starting to key on her and she's having to make the adjustment. She's having a blast.
I’m just glad we aren’t doing Official Game Threads for her games. This place would murder her…..calling her a bust and wanting to fire the coach by halftime!
