Big shoes to fill with Dowd leaving, though.
I think Levy has them as a well oiled machine . They will prob bring in an alumnus. But Dowd I’m sure was a difference maker . A coach with great skills.

All true about Bourque ... and IMHO she is a better player than Aldave. Stronger, faster, tougher. Contrary to the comment below, she is not a "big woman" , no where close to 5'10". Sure does play like it though. Alex Frank moved her to attack from midfield in 2020 and used her like Apuzzo at BC: RIDE, RIDE, RIDE. Still, it would not surprise me to see UNC use her to shore up the defense. She can play anywhere.

In high school, she played the backer in a backer zone and played it extremely well.

Does anyone know when this runs out or expires? Which year do things go back to what they were pre-pandemic?

It runs out with the current Junior class - kids that graduated high school in 2019. They were freshman the year the pandemic started.

Thanks, dad. So which year will things be completely back to what they were? Relatively speaking, of course.

I think it could have a ripple effect that will last a few more years after the current junior class graduates (see: Sarah Jacques & Ashley Humphrey). The current juniors may be the ones granted an extra year due to COVID, but with so many more upperclassmen, more freshman & sophomores could end up not seeing the field at all meaning they would also keep that year and can use it if they elect to.

Basically two more years after this year is when you’ll cease to have 5th year players due to the pandemic.

Perhaps not as impactful, but you also have to include the 2020 high school grads who took a year off. Some very large freshman classes out there right now.

Unless they get a Med. Redshirt...a player who qualified for a covid year could play portions of 6 years...

This is fantastic, some of these girls will be able to bring their husbands and children to the games to watch them play.

Familiar with a player, a very good player, that is a true senior this year, was granted 2 years of extra eligibility (COVID year + an additional year) because her team played in a very limited number of games in 2021 due to their conference limitation in terms of ability to schedule games.

This years Soph's are last of the early recruiting. Will that contribute to less roster jumping?
