Creighton’s steady-shooting floor general with big-time clutch genes
In the 2007-08 season, Ally Thrall was the kind of guard you wanted late in games: a senior captain, a proven three-point threat, and an efficient free-throw shooter who finished her Creighton career with 1,047 points and 82.2% foul shooting. She also showed real playmaking chops, including a 3.3-assist average in 2006-07 and a 10-assist, 20-point double-double that hinted at her ceiling. The appeal is her poise, spacing, and senior-leader temperament—exactly the profile of a guard who makes teammates better and doesn’t flinch when the pressure turns up.
