Let's get it started: Old Dominion

Another installment in our series of previews of the state's Division I programs as they approach their first official practices:

OLD DOMINION

Last season: 19-14, 14-4 CAA (1st), lost in CAA Tournament final (James Madison); lost in WNIT 2nd round (at Providence)

First practice: Tuesday

Season opener: Nov. 14 vs. Georgia Tech

Coach Wendy Larry on:

Her players' preseason work: ''We are in some of the best condition we have been in during preseason in quite some time. I love the work ethic so far."



Jasmine Parker
Veteran(s) poised for a breakout season: "Mairi Buchan and Becca Allison won a World Championship during the summer. Jasmine Parker participated in Sports Challenge and had a life-changing experience."

Newcomer(s) most likely to adjust quickly: "Becca Allison has a redshirt year under her belt and Shakeva Richards has tremendous work ethic and athleticism to boot."

Next up: James Madison
