Coach DeWolfe on von Uthmann -- “Afreshman from Sweden, Josefine is a smart player who can shoot fromthree point range, moves very well without the ball and is a goodpasser. She picks up things extremely quickly and is challengingfor a starting spot, but because of the fact that she needs totransition to the speed of the game, she will probably come off thebench.”
