Rutherford on Dozier: "Renee has the inside moves, and can pull out and take the jump shot. She has really improved by working hard over the summer. She has become a lot stronger and is in better shape. I am expecting her to come in and really be a factor on the court this year. I'm really excited about her improvement and am looking forward to seeing her in action."
