WBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Gregory Sager]

Yes, I've needled Stevie D. about the fact that the all-time gym record for assists in a game in what is now called Tarble Arena wasn't set by him ... it was set by his mother. As a member of the North Park women's team back in 1983, Becky dished out 15 dimes against the team then known as the Lady Reds.

[RogK]

Stephanie Kuzmanic had 17 assists in 28:00 at Tarble Arena on January 11, 2014.
That could be the local record, but I don't know for certain.

[Gregory Sager]

And so she does. So she now owns the record.

Oh, well. Becky held it for over three decades, which is not too shabby.

[RogK]

Kuzmanic followed the 17 assist game with a fabulous 34-8-and-8. Rebounds and assists or assists and rebounds, whichever order it's supposed to be.

Interesting fact about Minnesota basketball but the best mens and womans players in college basketball arguably played 25 miles apart in Minnesota.  On a concerning note  for the MIAC it looks like under 8 players of the top 100 have signed to play in the MIAC of course not all signings have been announced

[Gregory Sager]

Looks like you posted in the wrong room, Jester1390.

[Jester1390]

nah it was for Rog. just showing another reason Minnesota is tops lol

[RogK]

Thanks Jester1390, but not necessary.
Where I access d3boards, I have it saved to the general women's basketball page, not specifically the CCIW page.
So, I can notice when recent posts are made in regard to any of the conferences.

My interview with Millikin head coach Olivia Lett...

[RogK]

Some nice aspects of D3 :
absence of incessant and thoroughly insulting adverts on the D1 MBB broadcast (audio now on mute for my viewing)
and ...
during the pregame intro of the anthem singers, D3 people would say "courage" while we heard "courageousness" for the D1 broadcast.
Small but effective rant complete.

Q, enjoyed the Lett interview.  Good work.  Thank you.

All best to all the chatsters here for a happy and healthy Spring.   Get that vaccine!

Today is "All In" for IWU = April 8th.  I hope all IWU alums and friends will be supportive and make a gift generally to IWU and to the sports team or athletic endeavor of their choice.  Go TITANS!   ms  iwu'70

Congrats to Kendall Sosa for being D3Hoops Central Region Player of the Year !
There were seven other players honored at this level nationally.
I'm way too lazy to research all the other seven in order to have an opinion on where Kendall rates among the top 8 players.
That said, good luck to her for national MVP.

[iwu70]

Congrats to Kendall on being named Central Region Player of the Year.

Congrats to all the regional awardees. 

The new Millikin star named newcomer of the year.  Well deserved.
