Having been to a game this year in person--Petersen needs to add lower body

strength to raise her ceiling. She is a smart player and will get 10-15 minutes as needed. Absent some real increases in lower body and foot speed she is not going to be 25 minute player at this level.

I found this stat interesting: Freelon played 16 mins; Trent played 21 mins

Men's and Women's have the same issue

VT mens team is miles ahead of the women. First of all, while Hansberry may

keep in mind that some of Freelon's fouls occur when a guard
VAHokie89 • 12/17/25 05:18 PM ET
true, but i think she is to short to guard a 6,3 and up center

The freshmen need to do more than eat minutes. They need to be effective.
King of Hokies • 12/17/25 11:00 PM ET
The key for any freshman is to be able to play defense
VAHokie89 • 12/16/25 05:12 PM ET
They have to also be effective on offense. We aren't going to win a lot
King of Hokies • 12/17/25 11:03 PM ET
on her third assist, I was pleased that she may have had a chance to score

Freelon is not a 5. She is a stretch 4. Trent has to develop if we are

2 players Hokies are sleeping on

Sleeping? What do you mean?**

Yeah, I’m guessing you’ve got to give post minutes to one or the other
`lag • 12/16/25 10:53 PM ET
Disappointed Peterson hasn't developed into more of a force in paint
BAMAHOKIE • 12/15/25 08:48 PM ET
I am not surprised enough to be disappointed
VAHokie89 • 12/17/25 01:31 PM ET
She should be backing up Baker at the 4. But our lack of post players on

Unless Liz has a direct feed to HGH - cant help Kayl - she is fundamental
U2Hokie • 12/17/25 08:23 AM ET
She was learning the four last year. Her feet should be quicker this year

She's not tall enough, quick enough or strong enough. Other than that it's
King of Hokies • 12/15/25 10:35 PM ET
She’s not a post player and is only 6’ tall. **
