Alumnae Abroad 2008-09

This report was premature. Most of the European teams have posted their 2008-09 rosters now.  Corrections below in green
Seven  Five of our alumnae are playing professional basketball in Europe this season. Here are Seb and Kristen in Istanbul not playing basketball.
Kristen Newlin ('07) is playing for Fenerbahce in Istanbul, Turkey. She had a very successful start with her new team in a preseason tournament where she was selected MVP after scoring 17 (team high), 10 (some foul trouble), and 29 (game high). New had a very eventful summer, which included travelling to Turkey several times to get her Turkish citizenship, sign with Fenerbahce, and train with the Turkish national team. You can read all about it in her blog and see more pictures in her online photo albums.
Brooke Smith ('07) is playing in Italy again, but for Pool Comense in Como, scenically a great change from Rome. She too has started well. In her first game (against Viterbo, her team last season), she started, scored 8 points and had 6 rebounds. Being a leading member of the team must be a welcome change after her summer with the Phoenix Mercury.
Sebnem Kimyacioglu ('05) is playing for Galatasary in Istanbul, as she did last season.
Nicole Powell ('04) is playing for Fenerbahce. For the first time, she and New will be teammates.
Cori Enghusen ('02) is also playing her second season with Galatasary.
Bethany Donaphin ('02) : Familia Schio, the team with which she played the prior four seasons reports that she has retired.
Enjoli Izidor ('02) is not playing for Sibenik in Croatia, nor does her name appear on any other European team roster.
