WBB: GSAC

After today I really believe we will make the tourney. Piedmont is just not that good.  Go SCOTS.

I'm not so sure that you can take credit away from Piedmont. They did go 11-0 in conference play and have beat some solid teams this season. I think that we saw a different lady scots team that was ready to get on the court and compete and play at that higher level. I'm not sure where the confidence came from after they almost gave away the Spelman game but however it comes to them I hope they keep it.

I think they always win the game that comes after the ballgirl's b-day. She must have reminded them to at least try. 
Or maybe it was for Coach Fowler's b-day.

Now they owe her (and him) about 3 wins in a row. (Tues. ,Fri.?, Sat.)

Go Lady Scots!!

If we play against Spelman like we did against Piedmont, it wont be close.

Saxe, Nat, and Alison had big games last time we played Agnes Scott so I look for them to play more zone than man-to-man. We can play and beat Piedmont no doubt, but we will have to cut the turnovers down and shoot it a little better against their zone to beat them at their place. 

I wish Fowler would tap the bench one more time for a little help. Robin and Ashley have both played very well since he trusted, took a chance and has been playing them.

Amen a perfect conference run 12-0. A 22-3 season with the only losses coming to SCAC's No. 25 Oglethorpe (21-4), an OT loss to UAA's  Emory (14-10) and a five-point decision to USA South's Methodist (18-7) during Thanksgiving that was avenged in Demorest by 10.

Playing Millsaps (7-18) and Mississippi College (15-10) might not have been powerhouse but I didn't see many GSAC schools willing to play anyone from the ASC. Maryville had McMurry in town for Thanksgiving Classic and played Greensboro and Birmingham Southern.

Piedmont is certainly a rising program and can now add the first win by a GSAC school at Maryville to its bonnet if Im not mistaken. Be interesting to see where they are in south region rankings this week. I believe they'll still have to win to get in but should MC do that its an upset by MC, which is something thats never been said in this conference before.

I thought the ladies looked much better out there tonight. Spelman is so much better than in years past.

[mcscotsguy]

Spelman isn't a team you want to take lightly anymore. It looked like the ladies remembered the close game at Spelman and had a chip on their shoulders. Good job controlling the boards and they actually shot it fairly well from 3 tonight. Solid job in my opinion. Good to see Munday playing to her level a little more tonight too. Anybody know if Agnes Scott took down Wesleyan tonight?? 

[GottaHaveHeart]

Congratulations on the win tonight ladies!

I would like to give a special shout-out to Robin Franklin. I thought you handled yourself with so much "CLASS" tonight. A senior, playing her final home game, and even with us up by 25 with 7 minutes to go, with no signs of a chance of any comeback by Spelman, and after the Spelman Coach had already pulled some of his starters, to give his others ladies an opportunity to play, when our interim head coach did decide to start subbing, you, without any question or doubt, should have been the first person off that bench to enter the game. Even your team-mates were shaking their heads in disbelief as each sub before you were put in. Thats showing they respect you and they even understood the moment and what was happening. But even though you were the last one to enter, and even with all the memories and thoughts that I'm sure were going through your mind about it being your final home game, you continued to be the ultimate team-mate, by cheering on those who were on the floor. Believe me, other parents in the stands noticed, cheered loudly for you as you went in, and were expressing the same feelings, in disbelief, as I am now, so you have their ultimate respect also. Thanks....

GHH,

Big Dog stands with you on that one. We need two wins-and two wins can be had. Robin, Katie, and Lauren let your last game be in the NCAA Tourney!

Big Dog is Barking C'mon Ladies

[MCScotsFan]

Our section was thinking about cheering "Robin, Robin, Robin!"
Did not know what he was waiting for 
I guess y'all noticed that Ashley didn't return into the game.

1:00pm Friday at Piedmont. I hope they are ready! Go Lady Scots!!

Laura Simmons was robbed.  How does she not get freshman of the year??

[scottiedoug]

Laura Simmons was the best freshman I saw in the league this year....

[Big Dog]

WIN IT LADY SCOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Big Dog]

Way to go Lady Scots! Wow, this year should have taught you something about adversity. Katie Saxe played a great final game. Piedmont was the best team this year and they are to be congratulated, however our season was commendable based on the unusual surroundings of a coach leaving at mid-year and our squad not being the dominant force of past years. That being said, congrats on your efforts and much future success.

[younglion52]

congrats Lady Lions!!!  Way to finish out a terrific season. 

[scottiedoug]

Piedmont vs. Oglethorpe should be a good one.  Good luck GSAC!

I understand from Marcus's very good posting about the GSAC tournament on the D3Hoops home page that Coach Fowler does want to be considered for the Murvul job.
