Und246 Posted October 20, 2022 Posted October 20, 2022 Looks like most of the team is made up with guards. I guess we will have guards playing the forward positioning. Would that be the plan? Short lineup. Quote

I really think Mallory knows what she is doing but I am surprised that none of the three committed kids for next year are 6'! Quote

Not judging UND by NDSU. But I noticed that NDSU has significantly upgraded their team with alot of size. Size doesnt mean alot of wins, but the summit league is a league of tall guards. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 I rather would like to have more height - it is a limiting factor Quote
bballfan Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 I believe size is more important in the women’s game. I don’t think that you can get to the top without it. Quote
und1995 Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Bison women receiving votes in the coaches poll. I think the coaches must be confused or in the wrong decade but that’s just my opinion lol. Quote

Looks like South Dakota State comes in at number 24 and South Dakota also got votes! NDSU got 3 votes! Coaches must think the summit league women's basketball s strong! Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted October 27, 2022 Author Posted October 27, 2022 Montana State and Montana were picked 1 and 2 in the BSC preseason polls, so this will be a challenging road trip for UND. Quote
ND-fan Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 We definitely should be upper tier of the summit conference. Bernard Press conference I thought was pretty much spot on. How well we do will come down to our big girls McCarthy,Vanderwal, and Jardine if they can provide quality minutes playing defense and rebounding. They will have help from our guards playing in some of 3-5 positions at times but we do need their size if we are going to have successful season. I think offensively we’re going to be able take advantages with quickness and size of our guards as the season progresses but will we able rebound and defend our opponents. I am looking forward to the season. Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 I think we overachieved a bit last year. I am withholding judgement if we are better this year. Expect to be a top five team. Quote
Nodak78 Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 I think our speed and outside shooting will pose problems for teams. Quote
sioux24/7 Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Right before the season? What’s up with this? Quote

She named all the players and didnt mention Roach... She asked if she forgot anyone. The other coach's said no. I knew Roach was missed in her listing of players. I checked the college website and she was still listed. Then checked her twitter nothing. I guess this explains it now.. I had high hopes for her... Quote
ND-fan Posted November 2, 2022 Posted November 2, 2022 I wonder what happened here but it has happened. If there is any positive is that this deepest position on the team and what ever reason she leaving it’s probably better now than later during the season. I thought looking at her track record she was going to be addition to the team and was going to be player for the future. The other positive will be they can start looking for her scholarship now early. It also leaves possibility of bringing in transfer if they feel need another big girl for the season. Quote
NewUndFan Posted November 2, 2022 Posted November 2, 2022 Tonight will not be a traditional exhibition gimme win. Northern State has a long history of dominating division 2 women's basketball. Should be a fun game to watch and see some actual competition. I think a 20+ win would be impressive, but I am expecting a 10 point win tonight. Quote
und1995 Posted November 2, 2022 Posted November 2, 2022 Finally game day. I am very excited for this season, should be a fun team to watch with the impressive freshman Mallory has recruited. Go Sioux! Quote
und1995 Posted November 2, 2022 Posted November 2, 2022 Northern State is coming off of a 13-15 2021-22 season. They finished 10th place in the NSIC. North Dakota will see a familiar face on the Wolves bench, Rachel Garvey who played for the Sioux in 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons. The Wolves are picked to finish 6th place in the NSIC. Northern State returns it's top 2 scorers and should be a fun matchup for North Dakota. Let's go UND! Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted November 2, 2022 Posted November 2, 2022 I would hope we win going away. Understand that northern has some players and aren’t bad. We are supposed to be good and at home. Excited for the season to begin. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 We made three field goals the 1st qtr down by 4 Quote
