Good win for the Jackets today... both teams definitely not shooting very well... but overall it was an exciting game -- glad R-MC could pull it out in the end!

R-MC's got Catholic on Monday, and then it's over to Bridgewater, which should be a good game, and I'm excited I'll be able to be there!!! 

Another big win for the Generals today over Roanoke. This is a team that is yet to play their best basketball and has rolled off 9 of their last 10 and 7 in a row. Jess Hunsinger with her 5th double-double in a row today.

Looking at that box score from Crenshaw, how is it Va Wes shot 16 percent from the field in the second half? Was it Jacket defense, bad shot selection or a combo of the two?

Of course you will hear from me I'm not like that.. What can I say RMC made one more shot down the stretch then VWC did. Second close loss for the Marlins where they did not shoot well from the outside. The old live by the three die by the three idea. Looks like they got good numbers from thier inside game but nothing from the guards. Defense and bad shooting in a game of the 2 highest scoring teams in the ODAC. I have a feeling they will see each other one more time, best out of three for all the money..... VWC has to rebound quick with a road game at lynchburg tuesday, no time to  I i'll still take 14 vs 3 any day but i need somebody to make a shot

So I guess you are now saying 14 players can all have a bad shooting night 

Just clarifying. 

The VWC / RMC game was a good one. VWC did not manage the clock well, nor did they have good shot selection in the last 2 minutes of the game. RMC did a good job getting the ball in low to the post. Number 50 hit some key shots down the stretch. This week will be a  big week with Bridgewater coming in on Saturday. RMC goes to Bridgewater on Wednesday. This could net get any better ;

Dear General fan - I would not say it was a "big win".  Your team had 28 turnovers, something which has been a problem all season.  You did beat a very inconsistent team and hold Hanson to 14 some points.  Come tournament time it will take more of an effort.  Congratulations on moving up, though.  The Generals should be able to coast through their easy remaining schedule.

Whitecaylxx: I would say this is a big win for several reasons. One: the generals beat the Maroons for the first time ever in the Warner Center. As you will remember, the generals defeated the team from Salem for the first time ever last year in the Bast Center but Erin Hanson was out due to injury. Secondly, the win was big because beating Susan Dunagan is a feat that should be celebrated. Nearly 500 wins? She's not that near to a milestone without some great coaching to go along with the good atheletes down in Salem. Thirdly, this is huge because Jess Hunsinger got yet another double-double. The only double double I'm going to ever get is if Wendy's does a special on their burgers. So, kudos to this force down low for the Gennies. Fourthly, this is a big win for the generals because they are showing that they can win with turnovers. Being able to get over your mental mistakes, while a situation one would prefer not to be in to begin with, is tough but the generals had the ability to do just that. Fianlly, Roanoke was a team above them in the standings. So what if they've been inconsistent! It's still another win and also one against a team that has beaten BC and RMC. Sure there were a lot of turnovers but that doesn't matter because it's still a W.

General fan - Didn't mean to hit your sensitive spot!  What's that about? Jessica Hunsiger is a fantastic player for the Generals.

Not being sensitive just answering in hopefully the most logical and thorough manner possible.

VA W and Bridgewater were both undone by poor coaching in their games against RMC. Bridgewater's coach switched into a 2-3 matchup zone in the second half, got some traction going against RMC and then for some reason went back to her M2M. RMC was struggling against the zone and when things went back to the M2M they got flow going again and held off BW for the rest of the game. VW was using a trapping full court press in the start of the second half against RMC. RMC looked like they had never seen that b4, definitely had the deer in the headlights look...it got VW back into a tie game, and then Dunkenberger switched out of that and back into her regular M2M and 2-3 zone,,,which killed the traction/momentum they had been getting. I'm not so sure that BOTH coach's didn't out-think themselves in those situations..

Another ODAC/CAC matchup tonight. 16-3 Randolph Macon at 13-7 Catholic U. 7 p.m. tip.

Catholic 31
Randolph-Macon 20
at the 1/2

You are an idiot..... Karma that I don't know what game you saw between VWC and RMC but VWC played Zone the almost the entire 2nd half which got them back into the game becuase Macon (and VWC) where shooting so poorly from the outside. VWC pressed the first half and was down 5 at the half. VWC is a pressing team but they have gone to zone at times and it has been very effective. Thanks for your rubish it was fun to read.

Final
68 CUA
63 RMC
