We’re 7-3 after last nights win, with an 80 RPI, which means the teams we have played(both wins and losses) are continuing to be successful before and after our game with them. Take the ladies 3 losses - @ Oregon State 17th in AP Poll, @South Dakota State #2 in Mid Major Poll and has been in AP top 25 this year, and @ Baylor #6 in AP Poll and National Title Contender - Teams have combined record of 27-5!!! There is no doubt the ladies struggle at times, but we have to remind our selves they also have 7 newcomers(14 on roster), on a team that went to the WNIT last year. USD will be a big game for Brew and his Crew thats for sure, be nice to get that one and get to 8-3 going into Christmas! Anyways, Good Luck Ladies - Looking forward to watching when Montana comes to town next home game! Go Hawks Yea I know, sometimes I am a half empty type of guy. I know the players are playing hard. That said, South Dakota embarrassed us last year in the WNIT. Hopefully we can go down there and pick up a win. I expect UND to compete with the SD schools. We have such a fun team to watch when things are going right. I echo - Go Hawks (I have never said that out loud yet) Cheers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Lose at sd 76-71 after being up by 16 in the first half. Turnovers turnovers turnovers 22 turnovers to sd having 7. Freije with seven turnovers- as many as the whole South Dakota team. We will never be more than average if we continue to give the ball away 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just isn't UND Women's Basketball without at least 20 turnovers per game and Brewster pacing the sideline with that pained look on his face. That is how we roll.

When we join the Summit next year, I want us to be able to compete with the USDs and SDSUs and not just beat up on the NDSUs. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxFan100 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Just 7 turnovers through the 3rd qtr. down by five after being up by 11 at the half. Idaho is unconscious with the three pointers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 We lose by five to a team that had four wins coming in. I think we played alright I was impressed with Idaho. I think we finished with eight turnovers pretty darn good we gave up a big lead for the third straight game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprig Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Up by 11 in the 4th, women now down 2 with 17 secs left. ND ball following a timeout. Another big lead gone. We turn it over, EWU wins 74-70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A change may be coming unless he can have early success in the SL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if they didn’t last year, they can’t this year? Not following your “logic.” They’ve got 3 excellent players, Klabo, Freije, and Morton. They’ve got 4 that might be good by the end of the year: Moton, Dooley, Dailey, and Reinke. Dooley is the big wild card. If she blossoms, it would solve our height shortage and give us another great competitor. I think they’ll be fun to watch—-already are.

They haven't won the conference tournament since 2014. That is 3 (going on 4) years. That is my "logic". And I don't think blowing late game leads on a regular basis is "fun to watch". Neither are all the turnovers. They have talent, but they are grossly underachieving right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I am a little concerned that it isn’t team underachieving but lack of talent. I see teams getting through to the basket when we defend one on one. Some players lack defensive quickness. Shooting is very streaky with many players I thought if we just held our turnovers down we would dominate. Well, turnovers were way down and we still lost. This team doesn’t rebound like prior teams. I don’t know if we have enough smart basketball players Not giving up but they haven’t proven to me that they are that great of a team yet. Sorry to say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your “logic” is still: if they didn’t do it last year, they can’t do it this year. Glad you’re not Brew. I’m sure he doesn’t think that way, or any other coach, for that matter. Theyre 5-0 at home. Unless you were at the away games, all you’ve seen in person were wins. They can make up for the two close conference road losses when they get Idaho and EWU at home. They’re going to get better. They have been fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
