  1. Bad calls are starting to pile up. They let ISU play through a shot clock violation and then gave Gray a charge on an obvious flop by the ISU defender.
  2. 14-2 run in just over 4 minutes. Keep it up.
  3. Calhoun headed toward the tunnel with a trainer.
  4. He didn't have a great connection so there were some technical issues but he's still great to talk to.
  5. UMass got a few of those dangerous crosses in a short span. Unfortunate, as SLU dominated until then. Now Houck is down after taking a knee to the head on a good slide tackle to stop UMass.
  6. What a vintage Emily Gaebe goal. Ball was dropped into a triangle of UMass defenders and Gaebe still got there first and made something of it. And yes, Simon has been excellent lately.
  7. No Izzy Luebbert today - she was hurt in the previous game.
  8. Teams are taking the field and suddenly the sound has dropped out of the ESPN+ feed.
  9. https://x.com/TreyEdwards_3/status/1854925324888240248 ( @SluSignGuy, there seems to be an issue with tweets embedding.) Anyway, new interest for another STL-born and raised kid now in Texas: Trey Edwards - G, 6-4, 170 - Dallas, TX (Melissa) - AAU: AB Elite (Nike EYBL) - Twitter: @TreyEdwards_3 Offers: Mississippi State, North Texas, Morehead State, Southeast Missouri, Texas-Arlington, McNeese State, Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Interest: Saint Louis, Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Vanderbilt, SMU, Baylor, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, West Virginia, Tulsa, Texas-San Antonio, Drake, SIU-Carbondale, Sam Houston State, Canisius, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Latest News: Corey Tate was out to see Edwards. (11/8/24) Scouting Report: Edwards is an athletic, high-scoring combo guard with a vast skill set for a young prospect. He scores on three levels and gets downhill with ease. He has a nice shot from outside, with deep range. He's crafty and quick, changing speeds and directions smoothly. He has good positional size and plays with a ton of poise and confidence. He's originally from St. Louis. His mom played volleyball at UAPB.
  10. Ran out of gas. Which is a shame - this was closer than the score will show. Tight game for 35 minutes.
  11. Rebounding is haunting them now, too. So many second chances for Drake. The bigs just aren't quite at Drake's level. The guard talent has been upgraded, though. Holy smokes, Anumele is good. Wallace is going to be a nice player, too.
  12. Anumele is up to 24. She's impressive. SLU is down 66-56, though, Drake is getting good looks (or fouls) too easily at the basket. SLU is going to struggle against skilled bigs all year. Rushing things at the offensive end, too.
  13. Drake played NDSU. They didn't look great against NDSU. SLU played South Dakota. There aren't any errors in my post.
  14. Drake is very, very good. The NDSU performance was a little surprising, although NDSU has finished 2nd in the Summit the past two seasons and been in the WNIT both times. Not an easy road game. Drake will be sharper at home, though. SLU's shooting has to be better and they have to limit turnovers. We said on the podcast that we hoped SLU could win 1 of these first 2. Mission accomplished. Make it 2 and we're ahead of schedule.
  15. Ugly stuff. If I'm looking for reasons to be optimistic, though: Gray was back in the lineup. We might really have something in Anumele. Streaky but fearless, and she looks the part. She was good from outside (3-6) on a day when Kennedy and Bergstrom (combined 2-11) weren't hitting. In a bad offensive performance, the defense was there. They didn't let S&T even begin to creep back into the game. There's a lot to work on, but unfortunately not much time left. The season starts with 2 tough road games - South Dakota won 23 games last season and Drake ran away with the Valley (26-9, 19-1, MVC Tournament champs) and is expected to repeat. In a truly odd coincidence, both the men's and women's teams will start the regular season in the state of South Dakota on the same day.
  16. Yeah, that's always the sense that I got, too. Still wish he wouldn't have left town, though.
  17. Those last 2 probably shouldn't have gone in. GW goalkeeper made a couple bad plays. Nevertheless, good performance once they settled in after some sloppy stretches in the first 30 minutes.
  18. Former Vashon standout. Hasn't seemed like SLU has been involved in a while, especially since he left Vashon.
  19. Caeden Hutcherson - SG, 6-5, 180 - San Francisco, CA (Archbishop Mitty) - AAU: Team Lillard (Adidas 3SSB) - Twitter: @caedenh5 Offers: Saint Louis, California, UNLV, San Jose State, Loyola Marymount, Montana, Idaho, Texas-Arlington, Bethune-Cookman. Interest: Tennessee, East Carolina, Santa Clara, San Diego, UC-San Diego, Montana State, Seattle, California Baptist. Latest News: Hutcherson received an offer from SLU. (10/24/24) Scouting Report: Hutcherson is a competitive three-level scorer with a smooth game. He has a natural, consistent shot. He's efficient in his scoring and in his movements. He's smart and understands positioning off the ball. He plays with maturity and composure.
  20. She's fast! Looked like Hannah Sawyer blazing by that GMU defender. Got her own rebound, too - second time tonight a freshman has scored on her second attempt.
  21. By the way, Dayton tied Fordham tonight, so SLU will move up to first place with this win. That means SLU clinches the 1-seed and regular season title with a win or tie at Dayton this weekend. Dayton needs to win but can still take the 1-seed. Can't ask for more exciting stakes for a final gameday if you're the A10.
  22. Houck's long ball looked like it was going out but Smith timed a perfect run to get a perfect header on it for the 2-0 lead. Outstanding shot from about 21 yards out by Preusser to make it 3-0. This is only her 7th appearance of the season. First goal. Hope Kim is having a great freshman year. Lots of reserves in now. Great to see Gaebe in the starting lineup and looking healthy but no need to give her any more run tonight. Mason is absolutely overmatched.
