Very unlikely. Can't imagine who would think that could be true. Hidalgo

played at Paul VI against the top teams in the country, was a consensus Top 5 player in her class, and a McD AA. She had tremendous athletic ability including elite speed, strength and quickness.

Not much. The games we lost early were due to poor help defense. The games

No. Why do you think that she would? She is a good player, not a great one **
DGHOKIE • 03/05/26 10:39 PM ET
Far be it from a Hokie to define who is good and great at this stage…

Based on what? You have no idea whether she’ll be good or great. She’s yet

I think she'll do that next season. If we can just get a good Big

IMHO, no. Unless she is a 3 point sharpshooter. **
