Not their best game today. Davidson is better, but not that much better. Too many turnovers and poor shooting ruined us today. Oh well. Onward and upward.

Lose 56 = 38. Worst game of the season for scoring.

Probably their worst game of the year. They lost by 30 to Richmond in early January, but Richmond is one of the best teams in the league. They need to throw away the video of this game and get ready to win one at Duquesne.

I didn't see the game, but Davidson has a lot of size and maybe that affected our inside game. Duquesne is a lot smaller, but they are still pretty good.
A win there is not out of the question.

That was definitely a factor, especially in rebounding. We did make a strong run at the end of the 3rd and into the 4th but couldn't capitalize on the opportunities we generated.

I agree with you... forget about this one and focus on a bounce back win against Duquesne.

^ That run at the end of the third was the key.

After getting down to 7….39-32…they failed to convert on at least three straight possessions that would’ve brought the lead down 5/4.

Davidson has an interesting roster. 5 players from Australia and 1 each from Canada, Belgium and Hungary.

Can the women bounce back as the men did? Duquesne is good and it's at their place. This would be a big win, for morale and for their spot in the standings.

They absolutely have to find a way to clamps down on Duquesne's 5'7 guard, McConnell, who leads them in scoring, rebounds, assists and steals.

Her A10 numbers are:
Points - 18.6
Rebounds - 6.8
Assists - 4.2
Steals - 47 in 12 games

Great 2 nd period and now lead 42 - 16. Kuleja ? already has a double double.

The Dukes evidently have a Muslim girl on the team as she has long pants and long selves with a head covering.

Going to switch over to the men's game now.

What a win. I totally wasn't expecting a 20-point victory, and consistent domination throughout the game. Congratulations to Stefanie Kulesza for an outstanding performance. The really came into this game with a great plan and executed to perfection.

Rebounds tonight:
Duquesne 23
Stefanie Kulesza 22 :shock:
That's a new career high for Stef. (Previous 14 vs Lowell 12/10/23)

Hell of an effort, Stef

Glad to see them bounce back after Saturday’s game.

I was there with my nephews with their kids and my granddaughter. Everything went well except that UMass lost.

They’re the UMass basketball team that’s playing well and fun to watch.
