Syd

What a junkyard dog. One of the best games I have seen a Hawkeye player play. If she can stay aggressive offensively that gives us another scoring option which we really havent had besides Lucy.
we made a decision tonoushbthe ball again on offense and we are so much better when we do that. We had great flow and we shot the ball when it was there and we shot it with confidence. That makes all the difference. An aggressive approach equals an aggressive result.

Impossible not to like her and her game. Syd starter kit with Stremlow in waiting. Shorter version but she has that same grit and versatility.

Mentally, but I'm not sure at this point that she's near the same level of athlete that Syd is. She can go all day, and she's strong as hell. Loves the weight room. The dude manager that guards her in practice said that when she gets on the block to rebound and boxes you out, you CAN'T move her, and he's like 6'4 and 220lbs.

Shocker, even in 18 minutes, Syd Affolter led Iowa in rebounds (7).

"Rebounding is all about heart and hustle. Maybe I'm a little bit undersized at the 4, but I'll always bring that effort. I want to be the first one to the loose ball. ... You go hit someone and put your butt in someone, but it's more about just go get the dang ball."
