Sandora Lavett Irvin is just that, radar, on the defensive end of the floor. She was the third overall pick in the draft for a Merc team in dyer need of rebounding and a stifling defensive presence to offset the Turasi-DeForge juggernaut. Irvin’s resume in this field is unparalleled


This one is loaded ....

Yeah, I wasn't aware Natalie Williams' daughter was starting for the Mercury Wink

"Dyer" is pretty bad.

this Horned Frog put up an average, AN AVERAGE, of six blocks per game her senior year. The next highest block average was 1.36!



Irvin blocked 150 shots in 33 games, an average of 4.5 per game. That was good for third in the nation behind Marita Payne's 5.0 and Ashley Sparkman's 4.9. 1.36 BPG would barely crack the top 100 in the nation.

Hmmm yes, the article seems to be a pretty poor effort overall. Come on Mercury website, set your standards higher.
