Introducing...The Vertically Challenged

In a game often dominated by the taller athletes, these women give truth to an old saying. Size doesn't matter.

• Shannon Bobbitt(Tennessee): On a team full of well-sized All Americans, JUCO transfer Shannon Bobbitt sticks out like a sore thumb. As one of very few Lady Vols to come from the JUCO ranks, Bobbitt has left her mark in Knoxville. She can pass, score, defend, and flat out play. According to Bobbitt, it's all about the heart, not the size.

• A'quonesia Franklin(Texas A&M): A'quonesia Franklin is a relative unknown on the collegiate basketball scene. As the floor general of the Aggies from Texas A&M, Franklin has become one of the better point guards in the nation. At only 5'3", Franklin is known for both her impressive distribution as well as her explosive scoring.
  -
• Leilani Mitchell(Utah): As a once-forgetten standout from Idaho, Mitchell transferred to Utah after three seasons. And while she will be playing her first year in a Utes uniform, expectations are high. Mitchell's best quality is her ability to take others off the dribble, as well as knock down daggers from deep. Oh, and she also makes her teammates better. As Elaine Elliott once said "She is WNBA good."
  -
• Angela Tisdale(Baylor): Coach Kim Mulkey likes to refer to her as 'Tizzy' but to us, she is Angela Tisdale; point guard of the Baylor Lady Bears. As the only hold over from the 2005 Championship season, Tisdale brings both skill and experience. Her ability to create on offense, and cause havoc on defense is what makes her the player she is. This Lady Bears comes to play always.

• Erica White(LSU): White took over when senior PG Temeka Johnson moved on to the WNBA just a few years ago. Known for her quickness, White is one of the SEC's best prospects. Before you know it, she's picked your pocket, ran full speed to the other end, and put the ball up for two. Erica gives new meaning to the word fast. Catch her if you can.
