I hope that they can frame something and give it to Jackie for winning this award so she can look at it and feel confident about her game. When she is playing with confidence and has that bit of a swagger to her, she can be very good. I haven't watched the PSU replay yet, but she did a great job of running the offense. She was a bit off yesterday with some sets, but she still got the job done. A friend who was at the match remarked it was the best he had seen her play in the seven or eight matches he has seen her the last three years. I think that has been a big factor in the Badgers' improvement from the start of the season. She was frustrating me then by not playing all that well, but her efforts in the home conference matches have been impressive. She even got Dolgner two one on zero swings from the left side. When does that ever happen? She and Reineke also really have the timing on the slide working. It is also back to the point where few of Jackie's dump attempts seem to get touched even by the defense. I hope she keeps up this level of play; the Badgers will be dangerous if that happens.
