For the Cheryl Miller award, given to the best small forward in the country. 20 players made this list.
While it's a fine line, I'd like to see Sophie be just a little more selfish and take over games during her last season. I think that's going to be needed if Mizzou is going to get a coveted top 16 seed and home regional during her playing career here.
Mizzou has also been selected to finish 5th in the SEC in the preseason coaches poll:
1. Miss State
2. SC
3. Georgia
4. Tennessee
5. Mizzou
6. TAMU
7. Kentucky
8. Auburn
9. LSU
10. Alabama
11. Arkansas
12. Florida
13. Vandy
14. Ole Miss
Preseason all SEC selections have Sophie on the first team, and Amber Smith on the second team, that's it for Mizzou.
Depending on how the playing time shakes out, I think one or two from the group of Levy, Berg, and Troup has the ability to make a run at freshman of the year.
