Coach Agler Mailbox Response

"Will Betty Lennox be able to play this upcoming season?"
Dee
Martin, TN

Hi, Dee. We anticipate Betty being ready for the opening of training camp on April 29. We fully expect her to play during the 2002 WNBA season. Betty has made tremendous progress within the last week. She has worked extremely hard in rehabbing from her hip injury. One of our challenges has been to keep her from trying to do too much. Thanks for your question.
