WBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[RogK]

No spoilage detected. I guess we could also anticipate that a player who excels in two games may be favored over a player who excelled in one game (due to the bye).

[RogK]

updated Road Wins - Home Losses :
+4 Wheaton
+3 Illinois Wesleyan
+1 Augustana, Elmhurst
-1 Carthage, North Central
-2 Millikin, North Park
-3 Carroll
At the end of the regular season, this equation works : (road wins - home losses) x 2 = games above or below .500

With six games left in her career, Liz Rehberger has an outside shot at moving into third place on the all-time North Park scoring list:

player	class	points

Terry Haller	1990	1515
Barb Dunn	1990	1489
Liz Rehberger	2017	1349

According to her husband, Becky Johnson was poorly coached her senior year.

Boyfriends are never objective observers, Joe, no matter what they do for a living.

This one was (is)  a bit opionated as well.

Ya think?

Memory refreshment (of what happened in the first meetings of tonight's matchups) :
Dec 7 AUG 91, ELM 84
Dec 10 NPU 87, CRL 57
Jan 4 IWU 81, MIL 74
Jan 21 WHE 65, CTG 46

[iwu70]

IWU over MU at the half, 34-30, in a rather ragged affair so far.

IWU'70

[iwu70]

IWU pressure does the trick, pulling away from MU in the second half to win, 70-58.

McGraw 18
Schneider 13
Merritt 10
Kelly 10
Ehresman 7 and 5 assists

Shooting 40%, but only 15% from three.  A pretty good defensive effort by the Titans to hold MU under 60.

MU led by Emily Schulz 17

A big shake-up in the standings tonight, as I think WC loses big.  Not sure about Augie-EC game.

Titans now 8-2 in conference play.  13-6 overall.  Six games to go.

Keep it rolling GREEN.

IWU'70

[Gregory Sager]

North Park 74
Carroll 33

Liz Rehberger: 19 pts, 4 stls
Amani Davis: 10 pts, 10 rebs
Bri Lippert: 8 rebs
Shaylee Sloan: 7 rebs

Morgan Lund: 10 pts

Vikings cruised to an easy win in Waukesha.

[iwu70]

Augie and EC going into double OT @ Carver.  Tied 75-all after the first OT.

I'm pulling for Augie in this one.

'70

[iwu70]

Augie prevails 85-82 in 2OTs.

[RogK]

In Carthage's 70-44 win over Wheaton, Morgan Harris had 9 rebounds and 9 assists. Madie Kaelber scored 14 pts, missing one shot; Morgan Vukovich and Autumn Kalis each scored 10.
The Lady Reds disrupted much of what Wheaton tried offensively, at least in the segments I viewed. For the Thunder, Devin Kyler did alright with 3 steals, 2 blocks, 6 rebs and 8 pts, but all four of those were team highs (or tied for).
Each team made 17 of 39 2FG att. Each team tried 10 FTs, Carthage made 9 and Wheaton 4. Carthage was excellent from three-land, making 9 of 14. Wheaton's 3FG shooting was on the chilly side, 2 for 16.

I hate being so right about the difficulty of traveling, especially mid-week, to play at Carthage.  But none of that explains a 26 point loss by the Thunder - they lost all 4 quarters.  This is a very disappointing loss.  I didn't watch the game, nor will I have time to do so soon, but I've been wondering if this Thunder team plays with enough edge, especially in these tough games.  This might be an unfortunate indicator of it.  Outrebounded by 12?  The starters were shooting poorly - so why did Ellie Zeller and Jordan Myroth only play 12 and 11 mins respectively?
