Holy crap it’s a tie game! What a shot by Grace! OVERTIME!!!

I should let you know, my daughter is Hannah, one of the “big 3”… my husband and I are also lifelong gopher fans, but grew to love the Coyotes. We hope that it can return to a stronger position, to develop a deeper Summit League but we are very glad to have Coach P here in Minnesota. What she...

I totally agree with you. I see that you are a Jackrabbits fan, so I know that you are more than familiar with Coach P. As a Coyotes fan and parent of a former player under Coach P, I can second that under her system, if you want to see the floor, you need to consistently put in the effort at...

It’s also well documented that female bodies are much more prone to ACL injury due to the angle of the bones from the hips through to the knees. The knees are aligned differently than in males, and it affects the ligaments.

Yes, we would like to see some more of Maggie Czinano in her senior year. She has quickness and is definitely a team player, and knows the offense . She struggles a bit on interior defense, following her player through screens,but is pretty good on perimeter guarding. And Nia Holloway is an...

We have some very good shooters. Heyer, Grocholski, Stewart, and Battle are all decent from the arc, Sophie is fun to watch inside, as well as several of them that are great at driving and putting up tough shots. UCLA just had depth and excellent defense today. They got on a roll, and our...

Some players would probably do a lot better at the mid major level.

UCLA is a very big team, not just height, but also muscle mass. They are strong, they are confident, and they have a lot of future WNBA draft (and lottery) picks on their roster. We are hanging in this game, when nobody expected us to, despite being without one of our best players. I think we’re OK.

Heyer is definitely providing offense. She sets screens. She moves without the ball. She enables other people to take shots. Maybe she’s missing her own, but she’s definitely providing offense as well as defense.

And she does this very well. She is tenacious at on-ball defending, staying with the toughest guards on the other team for the past several games. She creates steals and tips, as well as forcing bad passes. And for being so small, she gets more rebounds than I would expect. Yes, she is not a...

In addition to poor defense, Johnson does not create offense for others, instead she is always looking to get the ball for herself. She doesn’t intentionally move without the ball to set screens or assist others.

Because she only played a limited number of games at her previous school, before she transferred.

I know that we will see more students as word of the $1000 scholarship spreads. And hopefully the great play of the women’s team can convert these fans, who regularly show up for the men’s games.

I have to comment that I love Alexia’s defense. She created a few forced turnovers, whether or not she was credited for the steals, and she forced a few bad shots as well. As to her shooting, our players are skilled enough to use screens and create more open looks, even for somebody with her...

Why would we play to their strengths? Let’s make them play to ours. If they can’t match up with our bigs, we will just go right to the middle. We are excellent at defense with our normal starters.

And now Shyanne Sellers has a knee injury as well.

However, if you look at the fire warning area, both schools are in that red zone on the map. Maybe Northwestern decided to use caution because they were taking the health of their players into consideration. Not just the fire, but the smoke and ash, which has encouraged a lot of people out there...

Maryland was missing two of their better players when they faced Wisconsin last week. Both players were back last night.

If you follow the weather channel, they knew the Santa Ana winds were coming back this week. They were talking about it on the air last Thursday.

Yes, that is one of the factors. In addition to potentially causing injury to your starters, it leads coaches to give the bench less developmental minutes. So, after those same starters get tired or hurt, the coach needs to bring in the bench players, but they have not had the exposure that...
