WBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[GoPerry]

359 from beyond the arc!  Whew, I get tired just pondering that stat.  Juwan Henry has nothing on the NCC ladies!

I'm hoping that the Cardinal and Thunder women get some bracket separation to see if both can make a run.  If WC can go 2-0 in the conference tourney and remain #1 in the Central, then perhaps they will have a chance at hosting the first weekend.  But with 3(St Thomas, Thomas More, Calvin) out of the 4 remaining undefeated teams coming from our little part of the country, they might get sent on the road.

Good luck to the Thunder this weekend!!!

Carthage matches up the best against the Thunder lets show them some support this weekend and through the playoffs.

They can go far into the playoffs if they can avoid the slow starts to games.

And if they can avoid being in a bracket of death that is beginning to take shape around the central/great lakes area.   St Thomas, Thomas More, Calvin, Hope, WashU, DePauw all within 500 miles.

Congratulations to Kasey Reaber and Molly McGraw for all-CCIW honors.  Pretty special to be named All-CCIW as a freshman.  Kasey Reaber and Emily Beoletto will be missed.  Good luck ladies with future endeavors, post-graduation.

Good luck to the CCIW representatives in the CCIW and national tournaments.

Congratulations to them.  What a great season for such a young team!!   Well deserved!

I think Katie McDaniels should have easily been the most outstanding player.   They just like to give it to seniors!!!!!!!!!

Watching nearly every game it was just very clear she is was the best and fastest player on the floor.  She has no weaknesses and is a great rebounder at 5'6".

Congrats to WC and NCC for making the championship game -- both tournament worthy teams for March.  Wheaton will be loaded again for next year.

On a related note, the IWU women won the CCIW indoor track and field championship, edging out NCC by just 3 points.  Freshman basketball standout Molly McGraw traded her basketball uni for her track and field togs and won the high jump in a record, D3 national qualifying 5' 8" jump.  Congrats to Molly, the IWU coaching staff and the many fine women track and field athletes for this latest IWU CCIW championship.   Good stuff.

Well I don't think Katie Mcdaniels should of been MOP. She played on a very good team the award is not a team award. Fiona McMahon was the best player in the CCIW. Kasey Reaber stats are better then Mcdaniels and the only reason she was second team is because of there record. She finished 5th in scoring 14th in rebounding  1st in assisits and 1st in steals and she is second team that's not right. She is a point guard that had to guard posts because of their size. I know it's not others teams problems that IWU had not size but these awards are suppose to be individual awards not based on your teams record. Without Reaber they would have not even been in half these games she did everything for the  TEAM. For her to be second team with those stats just isn't right. Nobody is up there in almost every stat.

Great overall season for Kasey Reaber.  I agree.  Titans need to have some rebounding and paint presence to be successful going forward.  Some key recruiting for Mia Smith and her team to do.  Congrats to all the All-CCIW awardees.  Good luck to WC and NCC in the tournament.

WI Lutheran upsets WC in OT 70-67.  Great season for WC, but one and done.  CCIW women one and done.  Season over for all.  Tough loss for WC.

Great season for all the CCIW squads.  There's always next year.
