Women’s Basketball at the Finals Break
@vandywbb on InstagramIt’s been a way-up, way-down season so far for the Commodores, but we’re heading into a 10-day break with momentum. At the end of last season, coming off a questionably called game against MTSU with plenty of drama on the court as well as the sidelines (the story of why everyone here should hate MTSU and their mascot forever coming soon) it seemed like Vanderbilt had what we needed to put together a really good season this year. Jordyn Cambridge was the senior leader we needed with a triple double in the SEC Tournament, more steals than Enrique Bradfield, and a spot on the All-SEC Defensive Team. Iyana Moore and Sacha Washington both made the All-SEC Freshman Team and were a ton of fun to watch in the second half of the season as they developed. We didn’t lose much talent from the team at all, and then in May we got two grad transfers in Marnelle Garraud and Ciaja Harbison who were both poised to contribute the moment they booked their flights to Nashville. This summer you could have said we had a shot at the tournament with the talent we had, that the darkest days of Vanderbilt women’s basketball were behind us, and you would have been one hundred percent correct over the summer.
