They will be fine and make a run for the conference title and a trip to the dance, I would be shocked, shocked if they didn't have a good year Quote

We went to the NCAA tournament one year with some of Roebuck's leftover players and we have been average to slightly above average ever since. 11 hours ago, SWSiouxMN said: absolutely not, SDSU will more than likely be the best team we play.

"Well, this loss will make us better." "Well, that loss made us a better team.". "Well, we couldn't expect to win this game against this team, but this will make us better." We are racking up the moral victories. What we should ask ourselves is, why aren't we more like SDSU? Why aren't we making more strides from year to year? I am not calling for a coaching change; I am just noticing a pattern from year to year with this team and it is a little frustrating. 2 Quote

There are a lot of teams that would like to copy SDSUs success. Quote

dmksioux Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Not sure where else to put this, but some nice notoriety for the Women... http://www.bigskyconf.com/news/2016/12/9/WBB_1209160650.aspx Quote

If you weren't impressed with the "strides" we took last season you must not have been paying very close attention. Quote
teamsioux Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Anyone know the status of Holly Johnson's injury? Brewster stated on coaches show Wednesday night that they would know more on Thursday. Quote
darell1976 Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Maybe we should stop playing NDSU it only lowers our RPI. 1 Quote
homer Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 NDSU is very young................but that was about as uncompetitive game you have. Sad thing is, they will win games in the Summit this season. Quote

UNDBIZ Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Was Johnson never able to get healthy or did she just have trouble cracking the lineup? Quote
teamsioux Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Brewster on last week's coaches show stated Johnson would find out more regarding an injury the next day. Haven't heard anything since then or if an injury is the reason she left the team. Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted December 22, 2016 Author Posted December 22, 2016 Solid win tonight over San Diego 1 Quote
obborg Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 We are trending towards being a strong 2nd half team, a sign of good in-game coaching. Quote

Teeder11 Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Sounds like a number of so-called role players found their stride over the last couple of games in Szabla's absence and with Fallon in foul trouble early last night. Just what we need heading into the conference season. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted December 30, 2016 Author Posted December 30, 2016 good start to conference season, 65-61 win over PSU. Quote
