Hornet women looked decent in Reno. Our frontcourt looks capable, but our backcourt is going to have issues. Overall I don't think we will be as bad as I thought.

Men had a solid first half at Stanford before being run off the court in the 2nd half. Lots of talent on the Hornet roster now that DP jettisoned the remaining Katz-Laird carryovers.
