MU Women's Basketball Thread

I tend to get grief when I've posted about the women's team on the other board.  And this thread is often me just posting and I get tired of talking to myself sometimes 😂.

They did just get a verbal commitment for a class of 27 kid from defending state champions Kimberly - the Paper Makers - not sure if anyone cares about that 😀.

I care, and I always appreciate your updates, even if I don't comment myself. Keep posting!

I concur with MU82. Always look forward to your reports and updates.

[MU class of 65]

Please keep posting, I'm excited about the girl from Kimberly . She had impressive numbers in the State Championship game in March. Her team was in the final 4 with some very good teams. Good sign that she was productive in a game with the bright lights on. Too bad she is only a junior. Maybe she can graduate early and join in June.

Important game tomorrow against Villanova especially after the home loss Monday to St. John's.  I'm hoping Forbes can play again.  They said on the broadcast Thursday that she missed the game at Xavier due to illness.  But I found it interesting she was still sitting on the bench - guess whatever she had isn't contagious?

Villanova is 5-0 in the BE so far.

Nice game today with 3 starters getting 20 or more points - Forbes and Mason with 20 and Halle Vice with a career high 32.  Vice had a double-double also for the 3rd straight game with 11 rebounds.  Vice was perfect from the field in the first half and her six 3 pointers doubled her personal high of three 3's in a game.

Villanova had been on a 10 game winning streak and was the only other undefeated BE team in the conference heading into this game besides UCONN. 

Good bounce back this week at Xavier and versus Villanova after blowing the game vs. St. John's on Monday.

I'd say Vice might have a shot at BE POW but I'm sure that will go to a UCONN player but she should make the honor roll at least .
