Jacy Sheldon returned to Ohio State to be a part of a group she believes has a 'really good shot' to make it 'even further' in the NCAA Tournament in 2023-24.
Still, Sheldon was pegged as a potential first-round selection in the WNBA draft if she chose to leave school after the season. But Sheldon said she didn’t even reach out for feedback from the league before deciding to stay in Columbus for another year.
Despite losing Mikesell, who led the Buckeyes with an average of 17.2 points per game last season, Shledon’s return lends major credibility to the idea that Ohio State can be just as good – if not better – in 2023-24. Including Sheldon, the Buckeyes return five of their top six scorers from a year ago, with all five of them averaging at least 10 points per game in 2022-23.
“I think we do feel . I think the newcomers are starting to feel it too, which is awesome that it's happening this quick,” Sheldon said. “With the style we play and the personalities we have, I think it's really easy to gel with us and get involved right away and feel kind of in sync with how we play. So I'm excited. I think we got a really good group who's only going to continue to get better. And it hasn't been a problem yet.
“We obviously have really high expectations of ourselves now and obviously once we start playing. But I think in the summer, it's about us holding each other accountable,” Sheldon said. “That's something we're really good at. Even in practice, we get on each other and make sure everybody's going as hard as they can every day. So I think making each other accountable is going to be our first goal and we do that pretty well. So just staying steady with that.
