Super jealous of my brother (in the band) getting to go to Miami while I shovel out my driveway in Racine.
Go Marquette!
Preview for when Quinnipiac joins the Big East!
MU v. South Carolina in Sweet 16. :o
There's an interesting second round matchup that could happen here. Marquette could end up facing Miami in the second round - MU Coach Carolyn Kieger spent 6 years there as an assistant.
This is Marquette's highest ever seed - their previous best was a 5 in 2007. MU's 5 was at least 2 seeds better than I expected and I was really surprised that DePaul only got a 7 seed. I guess Marquette beating them 3 times really hurt them - DePaul was 3 games better than MU during the season, had a better RPI and no bad losses.
Go Marquette!!!

I bet we "stole" their seed a la Michigan-Bucky in the men's tournament.

I went to Miami, what a great 5 day vacation for the girls, winning the first round means staying in Coral Gables. A very nice trip for the girls who deserve it. If they
win both would be great but just getting out of here for 5 days, not bad. Great to be a cheerleader or band member. How do they pick who goes where? Seniors?
Very tough draw for MU.
If this were men's hockey.
But it's not, so we got this.
I'm very bummed. Going to Miami but not until Tuesday. Seeing MU play there would have been awesome.
