WNIT First Round:
UW Milwaukee finished 2nd in the Horizon league at 12-6; but there was a chasm wider than Lake Winnebago between the Panthers and first place UW Green Bay. UWGB swept all three match-ups by scores of 63-42, 69-46 and 64-32 (Horizon League tournament).
There was also a chasm between UW Milwaukee and power conference teams: the Panthers lost @ Miami (77-38), @ Northwestern (69-44) and to Marquette (101-81).
The Panthers like the three ball (they were 196-623 for the season). In conference play the Panthers averaged 69.4 points per game and yielded 65.6 points per game.
UW Milwaukee is coached by former Badger Kyle Rechilicz (nee Black).
PLEASE NOTE: USELESS HISTORY FOLLOWS: Rechilicz was a three point shooting senior starter on the 2001-02 Badger team which suffered a water shed loss to the Whalen/McCarville Gophers. The Badgers riding a 15 game winning streak (including 7-0 in the B1G) were ranked 5th when they squared off with the Gophers at a sold out Kohl Center (17,000 plus). (Most of the game is available on you tube). Upstart Minnesota emerged with a stunning 92-85 victory sending the Badgers on a decline that pretty much continues.
Probable Starters:
F Steph Kostowicz (6-2) So.: 13.5/game
G Sierra Ford-Washington (5-8) Jr.: 13.4/game
G Jenny Linder (6-0) So.: 13.3/game
G Sydney Howard (5-7) Sr.
F Emma Roenneborg (6-2) Fr.
Other:
G Alexis Lindstrom (5-7) Jr.
