Overview
The Colonials have good size up front and all of them get up and down the floor well. Freshman Ugo Oha and junior Elena Vishniakova are both 6 feet 4 and can be disruptive inside. Senior Petra Dubovcova, a presence inside at 6-3, can also step outside and shoot the jumper. Silky swing player Erica Lawrence is a tough matchup due to her quickness and size. Senior guard Kristeena Alexander played high-school ball with former Tennessee star Chamique Holdsclaw -- now she wants a national title like her old teammate.

Player to Watch
Sophomore Erica Lawrence is an athletic player who can go inside, handle the ball with ease and is a dangerous outside shooter as well. Lawrence, a 6-foot-1 forward, averages nearly 14 points and five rebounds a game.
