Tigers look smooth in exhibition opener

By Kelly Jones / Record Correspondent

STOCKTON – In many ways, University of the Pacific women’s basketball team looks eerily similar to last season’s squad.

Geana Luaulu-Summers’ jumpers are still breathtakingly smooth.

Desire Finnie still makes laser-beam 3-pointers.

Chelsea Lidy is still a force in the paint. Last season’s top three point scorers are among Pacific’s seven returners.

Wednesday’s exhibition at Alex G. Spanos Center did not provide much of a test for the Tigers, who beat William Jessup handily, 95-59. Senior point guard Luaulu-Summers was the voice of measured optimism after the game.
