Balcomb and her coaching staff have made a living off of individual skill development. That development has led to how to write a good essay for college three SEC Tournament Championships along with eight WNBA draft picks. It has also led to almost 24 wins a season for Balcomb and her Vanderbilt program during her 11 year tenure.

The upcoming 2013-14 season does not appear to be any different as the Commodores return four of their top five starters from the 2012-13 season. Christina Foggie of Mount Laurel, N.J., and Jasmine Lister of Corona, Calif., will provide plenty of senior leadership in the back court. Foggie is a dynamic scorer who we had in the top 50 nationally as a prep prospect. An injury slowed her pace down the stretch of the life is a journey essay season. Next year should see Foggie return to her sophomore form when she led the SEC in scoring. On the other hand, Lister is a fiery floor general. Her play last season earned her an exclusive invite to the USA Basketball World University Games trials in May.

The Commodores will add their most heralded recruiting to date this fall. The nation’s No. 7 ranked class is headlined by No. 17 Rebekah Dahlman of Braham, Minn. We were on hand to see the scoring guard get her 4,000th career point at a high school game in December. Dahlman also scored an exclusive USA Basketball trials invite research writing paper help for the 19-and-under team in May. She’ll be joined by No. 21 Marqu’es Webb of Hoover, Ala., and No. 62 Kylee Smith of Alpharetta, Ga. Like Dahlman, Webb earned exclusive USA Basketball trials invite for the 19-and-under team in May. Both Webb and Smith bring a versatility to the forward position that will give Vanderbilt depth through the rigors of SEC play.

Keep an eye on Vanderbilt this season as they look to bring a fourth SEC title back to the West End.
