Looks to me like the East and West are reverse images of what they've been in past years.  My guess is that when tournament time comes, after the first round it will be 3 East teams and only 1 West team still in contention.  Usually, it's been the other way around. The West teams seem more evenly matched with each other than in the past, but from the crossover games the East seems stronger than any of them.
Alacumba!

I think HPU will win the West.  Who knows who will win the tournament.  My guess UT-Dallas will host.  HPU has beaten them twice this year.  If HPU plays their game, Yes they are capable of being the out right champs for the 4th year in a row. 

HPU is going to have to beat UMHB next time they play though. I wasn't there, but I understand the game in Belton was pretty close. The shooting percentages looked pretty good as well, especially UHMB's from behind the arc. I'm curious to see how the ASC will turn out this year.

I'll bet HPU will be ready form MHMB when they come to Brownwood.  I'm looking forward to HSU tonight, and McMurry on Sat.  I always love those games.

Cowgirls win.  Who awakened them?  HSU 75, HPU 69.

For the sake of the West, I guess that I am glad that it was tonight.

Those Lady Jackets will be madder than Hornets uh, Yellow Jackets come Saturday pm.

JACKET84

I hope HPU gets ready for McMurry.  They let Newcombe completely dominated the inside game tonight.  HSU by far won the rebounding game.  HPU did well when they actually attacked the basket, but didn't attack enough.  I hope McMurry brings some fans.  It should be a good game.

Wow! This really throws a curve at the West! Saturday should be a really good game! I might have to make my way to Brownwood to see it!

The UMHB win at TLU is a big one now!

This is a five team race for 4 slots.

HSU (5-6) may have the most favorable schedule left.

Ten games remain.  There are three road games...at SRSU, and then at CTX and at UMHB.
They have 7 home games against the entire ASC-West.

I think a 16 - 5 record will win the West this year.  (HPU)

18 - 3 will win the East.  (UT-Dallas)

Let's look at this.  Games against the Top 5.

The way they played last night, I would agree with you.

It looks like TLU will have the toughest schedule left having to play the four other top teams on the road. I guess it will be interesting to see.

We will.
The Abilene Reporter-News, incidentally, called the crowd at the game "hostile."  I know fans support their team, but "hostile"?
Alacumba!

JACKET84

 a hostile crowd of 1,350.

What a joke.  Hostile?  Was this reporter even at the game?  I really doubt the 1,350 in attendance.  Maybe they consider 3 or 4 people yelling at the refs as hostile.  Who knows.

Final McMurry 62 at HSU 57.

Coach Snow is now 5-1 against her alma mater as a head coach.

Sweeping the season series against HSU functionally gives McMurry a 2 1/2 game lead over HSU with 6 to go.  Two of those home games are against Sul Ross State (2-17)  and Schreiner (0-19).

HSU needs to beat TLU for the 4th spot.
