Mark:

We had Alia and Coach Fahey on during our pregame. I'm always struck by how tall Alia is every time I meet her.

There's no recording of that? It just went out into the air never to be heard again?

By the way, Hope fans and the Southern Maine coach are declaring this Hope team as the best Division III women's team ever.

Sure. His 2000 team gets beaten 79-33 in the Championship game with the best two players on the bench much, even most of the game and that isn't the best team ever.

He didn't say that and you have already been discredited in this attempt once. Please stop.

I must have misunderstood "They were every good as bit as those Washington University teams", "They" being Hope.

And I suppose I should stop complaining when people are rubbing salt in my wounds.

Pat Coleman · March 24, 2006, 05:13:16 PM

Yes, in my opinion, "every bit as good" does not mean "better." And the language agrees with me on this one.

Well either way...equaling this Hope team to the Wash U squad is still a joke.

Pat Coleman · March 25, 2006, 01:17:23 PM

As is exaggerating a quote to suit one's sense of outrage.

Wydown Blvd. · March 28, 2006, 10:32:47 AM

Hmm, Just realized that Malcolm got the nod over Danielle Beehler in the D3hoops All American team. Don't think I agree....but that is my only qualm

Washington University or Hope. Both great teams. Saw both games. Daughter played on 2000 USM team. Went as a fan this year.

Personally I thought the Wash U team was the best I had seen. (Fischer, Rodgers, Tucker, etc.OUCH!!)
Take nothing from Hope. They were/are outstanding. Love our Huskies but in both games the better team won. No shame in losing to either. Just great basketball!!!

Schedule time!! Wash U Bears open their season vs. Depauw. Wow, thats a great start to a season. McKendree College, also a solid NAIA team that won their conference tournament and return their honorable mention All-American veteran. The back to back NYU games will be great and probably reflect Nancy Fahey's incredible coaching ability. Can't wait. Any other UAA schedules out?

How important is the web in recruiting? Players are showcasing themselves in all sports. My neighbor's son is a diver who is putting together his showcase website. I found a site for Kaitlin Devaney (not Kathleen as reported elsewhere) who will be donning Marron at the University of Chicago this fall:

Pat Coleman · May 18, 2006, 10:20:38 PM

Thanks. Unfortunately, the San Diego paper didn't think so.

Wydown Blvd. · May 19, 2006, 01:59:56 AM

wow that website is impressive, but is it necessary for d3 women's basketball? or maybe she wasnt intending to go D3?

besides that, decent recruit for UChicago.

Wydown Blvd. · May 25, 2006, 09:59:40 PM

sometimes if I'm the only offseason UAA fan. Well Janice Evans is heading to Wash. U., she led her team in points and boards -- 11pts on 49% shooting and 7.4 rebounds for an about 14-6(?) team. So not too shabby, but untested. seemingly athletic though, perhaps some eventual post depth for a WashU team losing Danielle Beehler and without a junior class.
