During his opening remarks, Burt's exact words were "You see Nina Aho is on crutches and that's all I'm going to say about that."

​BTW, the only other "news" from his remarks was that Bovell will be redshirted this year.

Gotta figure that Burt will change his mind about redshirting Bovell now.

He knew Halle was redshirting regardless. It was Halle's idea actually. I will be writing more about why soon. Let's just say it is for the right reasons.

It's about only one senior on the roster. Full team coming back basically.

They'll be good this year as well. Lots of talent & great coach.

This is a BUMMER - Nina would have DEFINITELY contributed - however with the brace her mobility is obviously limited - If you have an arm or shoulder injury - you may be able to stay in or close to game playing condition with running etc. Nina is probably falling quite far behind.  Here's wishing Nina a QUICK COMPLETE FULL RECOVERY.

One point about Halle Red-shirting -  Coaches try to give out of town players players one home game in their area during the stay in the program - Tough to schedule games in Canada - Thought maybe playing UConn in Toronto was a way to "offer that" to Halle and Anie-Pier.  That was one of the reasons Maryland PAID to play at Palumbo last year - They wanted to give the lady from Hopewell a chance to play in her home town.
