Kendra Anderson also won the Wade Trophy, given to the top player in Division III by the WBCA. I know what some of us think of their poll, but that award is nominated for and voted on by the coaches so I think it tends to lend a little more credibility than the Josten's as far as the best player.

Back at ya Ralph!!! Big weekend and Monday for LIB.  I know we can pull this off, it'll be tough games.  I'm glad tough teams coming before Monday and old HSU.  As long as we play good defense, we'll be fine.  I am much quieter, Rick, than in the past...must be getting old. Thanks for getting some discussion going.  HPU has a pretty easy weekend so you should be able to relax.  We'll be seeing you soon................

I have been kicking an idea around for the past couple of days... about hosting an online talk show about ASC sports...  However, I would like to see if there is any interest... if so, please let me know... I have the resources and some ideas.  It would be free to listen to, of course, and I could accept callers and receive some of your thoughts....  Thanks.

If you have an online radio show it needs to include the east and not just the west.

nash if you check out their profile tball275 is an Ozarks person.  I would think they would include more stuff in the east than in the west.  It's a good idea to have the ASC radio show with interviews of coaches and players as well as a scoreboard show.

I think that this is an effort that should arise from the conference office.

I really enjoy Hoopsville.  You can listen live or to the podcasts.

I hope that we can get something like that for the ASC.

I hope that he will consult with Pat Coleman or Dave McHugh!

This is late, but I just wanted to comment on it.  I think that DIII players are great for DIII, but if they were good enough for DI or DII, they would be up there playing for DI and DII schools.  That is no means to be disrespectful towards anyone, but these players were not a stand out until a year or two coaching at the college level.  If they are good enough to play at a higher level, they would be playing there and still would not be at the DIII level.

I really like what is happening with McMurry this year.

Coach Snow's emphasis on defense is beginning to show results.

There were times when the substitution patterns and the effort to build the bench may not have resulted in victory margins that one would expect, but the shut down of UMHB in the last 14 minutes of Saturday's game was impressive.

It is not too early, either.  HSU, with its 10 new players, is getting it together.  This team bears no resemblance to the team that lost in Kimbrell in December, other than the numbers on the uniforms.

The HSU game should be sold out!

I too really like what I'm seeing from McMurry this year.  What's amazing to me is Coach Snow's willingness to go far down the bench.  Sure, that means the scores look a lot closer.  But the dividends that will end up paying are high.

With Tara Richardson and Meagan Sawyer both leaving after this year, any minutes that go to these talented freshmen are valuable indeed.  Coach Snow has given them a chance to get some valuable minutes during important games where the game is still fairly close.  I think playing in a real game, with that pressure, is gonna help up out later this year...and next.

On another topic:  Chad, great posts about Kendra vs. Otwell.  I saw them both play countless times...I too would go with Anderson, but Otwell really rocked.  Of course having a point guard like Kelly McClure didn't hurt either!  She quarterbacked that team incredibly well!

I, also, thought our women looked good.  They seemed almost listless against Concordia and UMHB -- I think they have a tendency to play down to the level of their opponent.  But they kicked it up last night.  Of course, they had to kick it up, for HSU is a class team with a class coach.  McM got ahead in the first half but HSU didn't panic; in the second half, they slowly whittled away the lead.  As the momentum shifted, the LIB didn't panic, either, and finally withstood the HSU rally.  It's easy to sound generous, I suppose, since we won, but I think both teams looked very sharp and I think both will give HPU a run for their money.
Alacumba!
