WBB: Northwest Conference

[LoggerBall]

Great job last night Loggers, GFU, not a bad showing either. Too bad you put everything you had into last night's game, it'll be interesting to see if you can maintain that same determination and hustle in tonight's 2nd round.

Taylor, unbelievable game last night. Lights out from beyond the arc, 20+ points when it was all said and done. Kubka was really off last night, I don't remember one of her 10+ 3's even dropping. Campbell and Farris were steady as usual but the team rode on Taylor's shoulders last night. With that said, tonight looks to be a night for the Log's.

After last night's impressive showing against the #12 team in the nation, I still contend that that must be one really bad division if McMurry is #12, they sure didn't look it last night.  All their hopes seem to ride on Robinson which can't win you the game, especially with the UPS defense. Hirsch really stepped it up and showed why she is All Conference last night. Shelby Ramirez, unbelievable hustle as always, that girl has some serious heart. All of the Loggers played quite well last night, it was a solid game and I see that translating into tonight.

PS - Togas are a terrible idea come gametime.

LoggerBall... Your fans didn't seem so cocky last night with just over 3 minutes to go and your fifteen point lead had dissoved to four.  I thought I saw a number of Loggers sucking air.  Thank goodness for media timeouts!  Seemed to me like you were having flashbacks of last weekend when you couldn't hold the lead.  There were a lot of worried looks on your side of the court.

You also probably ought to take a look at the stats before you actually start commenting on the Bruins.  Your memory is failing.  Hubka nailed her first three and only took five, one was a desperation shot as the shot-clock was running out. 

I'm not sure how a "solid game" against a team from a "really bad division" that gave your fans acid stomach  translates into cockiness about tonight but have at it.  These games are decided by the players, not the fans. Let's hope for a strong and fair game for everyone tonight.  We'll let the scoreboard tell us who gets to represent the NWC in the next round.

Loggerball,
McM had a bad night, and y'all were the beneficiaries.  I'd hold off on commenting about the division until you come to Brownwood to face the division champion, assuming you win tonight.  And the name you're looking for is Richardson, not Robinson...

Logger, if last night was an easy game, then the Loggers should have plenty of reserve in their legs tonight.   McMurry knew that they would be spotting you 4-6" per player and that you would try to go 9-10 players into your bench.  We held you to 37% on FG's

As I listen now, you are leading 40-38 with 8 minutes left.

I think that the fair assessment of the 2 conferences will be when we see how this winner does versus HPU, the winner in the ASC.  HPU is closer to the UPS size and every bit as fast as McMurry.
