Gremio14 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 10 hours ago, Pistol said: Per Colin Suhre on our show a few weeks ago, Clegg still has a season to use if she wants to. Which is crazy, given how she's already stacking degrees, but I think between redshirts and the bonus, she's still got it. I thought Martinez would be back - being honored on senior night seems to indicate otherwise. We'll probably see transfers, though. Is Peyton coming back? Her game, like those of Brooke and Julia, has exploded under Tillet. Huge improvement. But in her post game interview she lamented the fact this was her last game in Chaifetz. Hopefully I misinterpreted the tone of the comment…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just the way she emphasized this was her last game in Chaifetz that was concerning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still surprised Julia isn't using her extra year. Maybe she wants to go out with a career year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgstl Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 If I'm looking at this right, we're a 3 seed with a win Saturday? Wish this game was played at home before the boys game starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are tied for 3rd right now with Fordham and GeeDubya, but own the tiebreaker with both of them since they beat Fordham 87-84 and beat GeeDubya 76-64. Beat Loy-Chi and they have the 3 seed in the tourney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually the Lisa Stone holdovers that are doing most of the heavy lifting - Flowers, Martinez, Kennedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I'm not ready to crown her yet, but it's a good sign that she has been able to mesh the holdovers and transfers to get to this point.

I'll never argue that this couldn't have happened with Coach Stone and her players catching fire like they have, but I'm framing how the narrative will go in the media if they make it.

Wait! so you mean a new coach can actually coach up players even if the previous coach could not? No way this can't be true because everything I read on the men's side is we can not change the coach because we will fall behind - rubbish.

I have only seen a couple of games but how are the x’s and 0’s compared between the 2 coaches. Any great differences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any great differences? I feel like early on Tillett was relying on her Longwood players (ie McMakin) to make an impact which didn't really work well. I think about midway through the season she realized playing SLU style women's basketball (good defense and scoring inside while developing one really good three point shooter) was better than playing Longwood basketball (which seemed to be give the ball to McMakin).

Any great differences? Early on the offense wasn’t working well at all, it relied more on perimeter shooting, and defense wasn’t great. The defense has improved tremendously, and the offense has changed into attacking the hoop in the paint, and taking better shots from range. They also always have fight, late in a game if they are down they keep battling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
