"She can play, she's a battler,'' Washburn coach Ron McHenry said of Cassaday, who started in place of Abby Oliver (illness). "She's a 5-(foot)-10 post that just battles hard and she's getting better every day. She will compete and I'm never worried about her, coming off the bench or starting. I never worry about her because she can handle herself.''
