Notebook from day four of training camp:
  • Natalie Nakase had a bunch of A+ quotes today. First, when asked about when Juste Jocyte might be ready to join the team for preseason, she said: “I don't know if she's gonna win, she's gonna lose (in Europe). Like, I can't predict. If I was God, like that would be nice if we could predict things, that would be my superpower.”

  • Nakase was later asked about if this year feels different even with a lot of continuity with the group, and she gave an interesting analogy. "Have you been in a relationship more than a year before? If you have, you can understand that you can go at your partner a lot more after one year. You know their strengths, their weaknesses.”

  • Miela Sowah was rocking violet nails on the fourth day of camp, and she was excited for that to be noticed. “I had the day off, so I was like, oh, I may as well just go all out (on the nails) and also, like, love violet. So, yeah, got them done.”

  • After the paywall, Kate Martin spoke about the kind of season she wants to have on offense.
