The Vikings are expecting big things from Janelle Adams this season as she makes the jump to her sophomore season. One of the top all-around athletes on the squad, Adams had the ability to change a game with her offensive and defensive skills because of her size, speed and athleticism. A versatile scorer, she is capable of finishing in transition, at the basket or with a mid-to-long range jumper. Her height also allows her to find teammates on the offensive end and get them involved in the flow of the game.
