this has been an ongoing problem-we are not competitive in the horizon league...not just from our rash of injuries recently...

We can be. With the talent we have, and the talent coming in, we can compete in this league. It's all about a plan, preparation, and utilizing the talent we have. We seem to get hung up on a pecking order. If a Freshman comes in with more talent then an upper classmen, they need to be playing, to help the team, and drive the upper classmen to do better. Prior to Scott getting hurt, her playing time was increased only due to injury. She should have been playing regardless. If we plan on continuing to live by this philosophy when bodies are healthy, we be watching more of the same.

Honestly, if the philosophy doesn't change soon talent will leave and/or be hard to recruit solid players in the future. WBB game has evolved and we must keep up. I have faith that this will occur with the talent the coaches are bringing mixed w/current players.  Keep in mind, the kid that 'killed' us in Wright State game was a freshman!

64 to 43 Final!

Couldn't agree more with your feedback, Jack... 

Another thing to keep in mind, this issue didn't start with a couple of games and we can not measure improvement level with only a couple of games – especially with an unhealthy squad. 

I will say this much... The coach MUST find a way to work with his rotation until other girls are healthy.    And regardless for season, he must figure out a strategy to put the right players on the court at the right time based on opponent.

Coach has the girls to compete!

I am confused to how things are looking up for the Women's team so far.  In an exhibition game, they won by 3 points against St. Joseph who is one of the worst teams in their D2 conference. And they lost to SIU Edwardsville. Not the normal SIU, SIU Edwardsville. Being completely honest, I feel as if our team would struggle competing with quality D2 teams. I hope it turns around soon, just giving my outlook on the team.

I agree it's too early... But don't sleep the on St. Joseph game also. This team just pulled off a huge upset to the 21st ranked Grand Valley State in their division.

"Sunday afternoon as the Saint Joseph's College women's basketball team upset the 21st ranked Grand Valley State University. SJC put together a strong second half to rout GVSU 66-47 at Richard F. Scharf Alumni Fieldhouse."
