Great article on Norika Konno

An instant fan favorite who had her season cut short. The article tells the story of her first year at UofL. Enjoy!

Great read. I'm looking forward to her return. A lot of competition, but I think Norika will be right there in the mix. She's going to have to expand her long range game.

What I got from the article is her competitive nature. I expect her to be a gym rat when she’s able to return.

I agree, and if you want to play next year, you better become a gym rat. We have a lot of competition at all positions.

She is a player who brings the ‘intangibles’ to the court. Shooting will come but her all-around game is very solid.

She is very athletic and really smooth on the court. I think she will do well and I do agree some great players already there and more coming in.
