Congrats to Cali Collier for joining the FU 1000 pt club. She definately has gotten more out of less size then anyone coming through the Lady Griffin's program.

Agreed Denny... Calli and backcourt mate Katelym Brammel have been a pleasure to watch the last couple of years....

Article on Spalding's website says Spalding 71 Webster 59. Katy Meyer and Megan Willett with 16 each for Webster.

Spalding article is wrong. Maggie Zoehner had 16 not Megan Willett.

Fontbonne looked very good in defeating Greenville yesterday... Bramel, Callier and Boyd all hit double digits, and Shelby Ellison looked very good off the bench..... Greenville lost Kate Wise early in 2nd half..hope she's ok... looks like the 3-4 spot is still a toss up between Greenville, Webster and Blackburn

Using the hopefan standings explained on the men's page

Webster is +1 for beating one of the top 3, Fontbonne

Greenville is 0 theyve lost in top 3 games (Font, Westmin, or Spalding), they've won at home and lost on the road to middle 3 (Gville, BC, Webster), and they've beat bottom 3 (Prin, EC, and Mac)

BC is also at 0

Big games on the ladies side tonight,,
BC at Fontbonne... Fontbonne played very well vs Greenville... They should win this one... BC needs a big unexpected win to jump into playoff contention... this is their opportunity

Westmin at Webster.... Webster scored the stunner at home against Fontbonne, can they do it again vs Westmin... it would put them into a very positive position for a playoff spot if they do.....having seen Westmin, I think Webster will have a tough time beating them... not a big talent difference, but I was very impressed with how Westmin took care of the ball and made the extra pass for good shots....

hopefan · January 20, 2011, 01:34:28 PM

tough room..

Font nips BC at home, Webster crushed by Westmin, Greenville beats Mac

hopefan standings for 3rd 4th, 5th stay the same

Webster +1 for beating fontbonne
Greenville 0
Blackburn 0

hopefan · January 21, 2011, 10:31:08 AM

Critical game tomorrow for Fontbonne at Spalding... Fontbonne needs this one if they want to maintain hope of catching Westminster in the standing and bringing the conference tourney to St Louis... Equally important is Webster vs Greenville in the quest for a playoff spot...Gville needs to defend their home court......

Coach Will · January 21, 2011, 11:03:36 PM

Hey Hope, B.C should have gotten a negative number for giving away the game at Fontbonne on Wednesday.

hopefan · January 22, 2011, 05:21:16 AM

In your mind yes, coach, but it was expected in the hopefan standings.... you would have gotten a +1 for a win though.....

hopefan · January 22, 2011, 09:28:16 PM

Greenville has a costly loss at home vs Webster.... BC beats Eureka, Spalding beats Fontbonne....

Hopefan standings

Webster +2 win over Fontbonne, Win at Greenville
BC 0
Greenville -1 loss at home vs Webster

Congrats to Katy Meyer on eclipsing the 1,000 point mark for her career.

Sure would like to see Webster slow the game down a bit with a 12-14 point lead and 2 1/2 minutes to play.

hopefan · January 24, 2011, 06:31:53 AM

Webster used some different people against Greenville... or at least there was a redistribution of minutes... and several people who got opportunity did very well ... in particular Molly Zehner, Airyn Miller, and off the injury list Tori Fenimore.... the win at Greenville puts the Gorlocks in excellent position for a tourney spot headed into the second half of the conference season....

hopefan · January 25, 2011, 09:25:40 AM

the ladies games tonite and tomorrow are mostly top 6 vs bottom 3...

Webster over Prin
Spalding over Eureka
Westmin over Mac

4th game is huge Greenville at BC....
Critical for Greenville as it is a big opportunity to bounce back from the home loss to Webster... you only get so many chances to make up ground for a playoff spot, and this is one of them

Critical for BC to stay ahead of Greenville for the 4th playoff spot, if they lose, they fall behind Greenville, and would have to make up ground themselves......

Webster over Prin as hopefan predicted. This time with a mid-teens lead and 2+ minutes to play it was not necessary for Webster to slow down the game, as it might have been smart for them to do against Greenville. Prin doesn't have what it takes to overcome that kind of lead in a short period of time. So coach cleared the bench and got some nice energetic play from Hillary Trimble (who got a mention from hopefan on the men's board) with a great sideline steal and layup, Lisa Adden with a bucket, and Amanda Archangel who always seems poised on the floor.
