A few highlights of Morgan:

Nice!

Wow...Morgan looks like she's gotten really aggressive driving to the basket. I hope she having the time of her life.

I expect it's all part of the transition to a post-y wing.

Nice clips.

Caught a few glimpses of Morgan in the clips from training camp that the Sun are posting on their twitter feed. :up:

sorry for my cluelessness. Haven’t followed the WNBA since the monarchs dissolved. When is the WNBA season? Does it overlap with the nba?

2021 season is May 13 to Sep 20, according to google, so it looks like it overlaps the NBA playoffs and then wraps up before the NBA teams start camp. There's a pause at some point in there for the Olympics.

Morgan scored six and got three rebounds in seven minutes of play in CT's preseason win over the Wings yesterday. edit: Those seven minutes were the least of anyone on the team--at least she was efficient with them!

CT needs to trim down to 11 players for the regular season and only likely has two vacancies; Morgan's name didn't pop up in any of the discussions I read.

Morgan was waived today.

Bummer. I wonder if she will continue to play abroad now or begin to pursue her biomedical engineering career? Jen Gross had said she would welcome her to coaching also.

Morgan Bertsch sighting during these highlights of Sophie Cunningham--#22 in blue.

ps. Morgan made a steal on a bad pass from Sophie and scored on a last second breakaway to end the scoring in that game. Morgan's line for the evening: 7 pts, 3 rb, 2 as, 2 st, 2 bl in 30 min.

pp.s she's playing on the same team as Megan Gustafson again--random!

Also, this highlight from last year is :eyes:

Morgan Bertsch back on the Wings for training camp:

Two Big West women among the initial* 88 players that declared for the WNBA draft: Amy Atwell (HI) and Jayden Eggleston (CSUB). Also a guard from Sac State on the list: Lianna Tillman.

Like last year, it's going to be a tough year to be drafted--lots of players, very few open spots.

*players in the Final Four have a different deadline.

What ever became of Hawkins overseas? He sure was a great player for us. Probably best ever.

Looks like he last played in Latvia.

LA Sparks just picked up Atwell in the 3rd round (of three).

edit: not too surprisingly, ESPN had no pre-draft analysis on her. Heh.

Very brief Morgan sighting:

Bertsch waived today--no great surprise, given the very small number of spots and very large number of hopefuls. Back to Yerp?

Atwell made the final roster for the Sparks! Wow. There were a TON of draft picks (including first rounders) that did not--very impressive for Amy.

The latest on Morgan; she has signed to play with a team in Belgium: https://www.eurobasket.com/Poland/news/757020/Kangoeroes-land-Morgan-Bertsch,-ex-Arka-Gdynia

Morgan signed a camp contract with the Sky.

9 pts/3 rb/1 st in 8 minutes on the court.

Coach Wade sounding pretty positive on Morgan in this article: https://chicago.suntimes.com/chicago-sky-and-wnba/2023/5/8/23715841/sky-has-questions-to-answer-in-frontcourt

Thanks for article. Pulling for Morgan!
