She has a college frame and is physical getting to the basket.

There were quite a few players that may not get the notoriety due to the fact they are playing alongside all-Americans. However, without these players the elite can't be elite and wins turn to losses. These are the players that are needed to win championships and they showed their value this past Sunday.
