If you're going to let Meia Daniels fly right by you that's not going to be helpful either. Gotta play defense and defending someone going to the hole inevitably means fouls.

Yes, but offensive or defensive? Makes a difference on how well the defense is played.

All I've got to say tonight is... it is a shame that the NWC can't be better represented in Iowa. I am proud of the outstanding fans that NWC has provided this season. Heckling has been at an all time high, classy comments are a premium, and the classlessness has been kept to a minimum. It would be nice for the Sweet 16 to be a little closer so the fans as well as the ladies could support UPS on its run to the Finals.

I've been brewing over these stats for a few days now, seen some HPU tape, I'll give credit when credit is due. Daniels is All American... enough said. That girl can ball. I just haven't seen the depth that UPS can provide, granted, the bench has to be hot all night and that has been one of UPS's defining moments as of late. If the bench stays hot, UPS has a real chance to take this one away from HPU. Look forward to sitting in front of my computer for 2 hours tomorrow night listening on D3.

In McMurry's victory over HPU our backcourt was very cold, (FG 6-34, 3FG 2-12).  We held Daniels to 11 points.

A week later, when we held Daniels scoreless in the 72-55 loss before 2890 fans in Brownwood, we hit outside shots fairly well (FG 10-25,  3FG 2-15), but HPU found other ways to beat us.

Last week against UPS, our frontcourt was horribly cold (FG 3-23 3FG 2-15).  I really look forward to seeing how UPS handles HPU.

Logger, HPU's bench matches yours, player for player.  Your bench must stay hot, and I think that your team must go deeper, earlier.  I thought that HPU's bench was stronger than McMurry's all season.  we had long debates about how we were beating team by 101-5 and HPU was beating teams 20-25 with their deep bench players getting  5-6 minutes and pulling farther away.

My sources at the UPS-McM game said that your coach used the media timeouts and her coaching skills to keep us from finally wearing your down, before the final Free Throw Extraganza.  We came to within 4 points twice in the last 4 mnutes before you pulled away.

The real shame is that the game isn't closer to Texas.  I doubt UPS has ever had even close to over 4300 fans at a game!!!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the UPS team & NWC fans everywhere are crying in their beer that they don't get to play in front of 4,000+ Texans yelling "y'all whatever" at them!  HPU really needs to get over that one.  I'm pretty sure it's going to be a good game no matter what & it seems Texas is closer to Iowa than Washington is, so I'm sure your fan base will be larger.

HPU: 0-5 from beyond the arc, 3-20 from the field, Meia Daniels is 0-6 and 0-3 from the 3 pt line. UPS is up 20-17 with under 5 to go. HPU is only in this because of their free throws.

HPU hasn't scored a field goal in 12 mins.

Great job Loggers!   Guess those teams from the NWC are pretty good, even against Texas!
What was with the free throw stats?  HPU 15-18 and UPS 3-3?  How could it be that out of whack?

LoggerBall

Congrats UPS!!! Elite 8 time... great game, what a tough first half for both teams, terrible shooting percentages, great free throws for HPU, that was one the second best game of the season in my opinion (Of course the first being last weekend over GFU).

Its' a Puget Sound-Wash U game tomorrow. Wash U knocked off Luther, 59-58.

What is this, the third time in 4 years a NWC team is in the Elite Eight? Will we ever get our teams in different brackets? We definitely would have a good chance at getting two teams into the top eight if given the opportunity. But will it ever happen? Good luck to UPS tomorrow! Keep proving how good the west is!!!

bbaddict

I agree with Pump Fake.  Too bad that UPS eliminated GFU last weekend.  We could have two teams from NWC (in different brackets) showing them what a great conference this is.  I hope the Loggers take it to the top!

The NWC and the ASC are both geographical isolates.  We are unlikely to get our teams in different brackets.  They had a situation where they could split McMurry and Howard Payne, and that was how you were able to miss the first round rematch.

C'mon, Loggers!  Trailing by 8, 54-46 with just under 2 minutes left. :(

Rough night for the Loggers, 57-48....out-rebounded... great defensive game, congrats Loggers on the great run! Unranked school comes in and upsets the #12, #2, and the team that beat you three other times during the season.
