Well, crap. I really expected Whitney to be a leader this year. Brittney Blythe and Alyssa Fressle will really need to step it up at the PG position.

I hate to hear that. Those things seem to run in cycles.

If you read the entire article, it also says:

Additionally, McConnell-Miller announced that sophomore guard Chelsea Dale underwent successful surgery to stabilize ligaments in her right ankle earlier this month. Dale, who saw action in 12 games as a true freshman in 2007-08, has started rehabilitation and is expected to return in December.

I love watching Whitney play. We're going to really miss her. She had improved so much since her freshmen season.

I am not sure that Kelly Jo Mullany is a point type. I think she is really more of a shooting guard. It really seems that the point have to be either Blythe or Fressle. I am not sure who #3 will be.

Fressle is going to have some big time responsibilities as a freshmen. She's going to see a lot of playing time.
