    Coach Dawn Plitzuweit's First Season

    As many previous posters have noted we need a few WNBA level players in order to take the next step. The FF team had Whalen n McCarville both of whom had great pro careers. Our talent and level of play has been improving and I hope we keep this upward trend. Go Gophers !

    2026 NCAA Tournament Thread

    I was working the ER in Baltimore , MD the night Len Bias died. There was a grieving mass of family / friends and an experience I will never forget. Massive talent gone way too soon.

    Sophie Hart talks about playing for her hometown team.

    She was a difference maker and had a great final season. I really love to hear a player talk about the “ joy “ of playing for MN. It tells me that in addition to overall team improvements Coach P is inspiring her players

    What grade would you give the Gophers 2025-26 season?

    This was a season to be a proud of from the coaches, staff n players. The fact that we only lost Heyer in the portal speaks to the positive energy this team had as a unit. Finishing 4th in a tough Big n beating IO on the road were big steps forward. Winning on the Battle buzzer beater @ the Barn...

    The height and athleticism gap is too big but it does not take away the progress that has been made this season. Go Gophers !

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS UCLA SWEET 16 IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    It is curious but it seems that with playing tough D on this athletic UCLA team Coach is trying 2 keep them fresh. It was encouraging that Glenn made a couple of shots.

    Most woman’s teams r not deep enough to guard Betts. Tonga provides decent back up minutes for Hart. Coach will continue to recruit talented bigs.

    Gophers will play #1 seed UCLA in the Sweet 16 at 6:30pm on Friday night.

    We open as 19.5 point underdogs- no surprise. Would love 2 c them get hot from 3, limit the TO’s n contain their O. Those r big asks but I hope they have fun make it a competitive game. Go Gophers !

    Team Chemistry

    That’s cuz Cotie had just made the cash money gesture and was 2 busy pouting on the bench. On a positive note I watched the interviews and this team seems 2 genuinely care about each other. I also believe this good energy contributes 2 us having a good retention rate 4 our players.

    NCAA Tourney

    Never said that. I was commenting on the fact that sometimes being a higher seed on your home court brings performance pressure . Sophie Hart talked about exactly this when she said they came out tight against GB with the big crowd , being a higher seed and playing @ home.

    Well sure any team that loses scores less. I was referring more to their overall play. They looked tight like we did in the first 3 quarters of the GB game. Playing a 10th seed @ home comes with expectations.

    ***OFFICIAL OLE MISS VS MINNESOTA RD OF 32 NCAA TOURNAMENT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I agree. I will quote my brother who was a D2/D3 n HS official for 40 years that refs rarely decide the outcomes of games. That being said the inconsistency in the woman’s game is frustrating. It happens at all levels including the WNBA which has a few horrible officials. In yesterday’s game we...
