24-18 'Saders at the half, Manis with 11 - who will emerge as the reliable 2nd and 3rd option on offense is the big question with our team Rider is 0-2 so far on the season losing to Princeton (they're good) and at UVM (they're bad) on Friday night.

HC up 10–start of 3rd Manis has 15 Frosh Labarbera, off the bench, next with 7–maybe she will be option 2 or 3 Just as the men’s game at UM, we are winning this one at the line,,12-0

Rider fighting back - they are playing their 3rd game the year (all against teams playing their first regular season game). They are out-rebounding HC 26-25 so far. 3 PF each on Manis and Exemma and 2 PF on Swords. That could mean problems in the 4th quarter.

HC wins 71-61. Nice season opening win for he Lady Crusaders. Manis caught a long pass alone under the basket and just dibbled out the last 5 second...good sportsmanship. Manis 24 pts / 9 reb Labarbara 12 pts / 2 reb (8 of 8 on free throws) Pedi 13 pts / 5 reb Swords 12 pts / 8 reb It looks like they are finding a way to make it more than a one person offense.

Both teams shot poorly from the field, boards about even. Big difference at the line as HC went 25-29, Rider just 7-13.

If you can get 12 and 8 a night from Swords they'll be in good shape.

HC wins 71-61. Nice season opening win for he Lady Crusaders. Small point, rgs318, but they are "Crusaders". "Lady Crusaders" would only be appropriate if we referred to the men as "Gentlemen Crusaders".

At least give him credit for not saying “Crusaderettes!”

I do think Mr. E, Bob Fouracre used to refer to them as the Lady Crusaders...

Thanks for your observation.

From my sportswriting days, one must be careful when speaking of a women's team. For example if the men are the "Bulls" I do not think it would be acceptable to refer to that school's women players as the "Cows."

I'll never forget the time Bob F. told his listeners after a game that he would be at the next men's game, and Jeremy Leachen would be "handling the women"........

Don't think they do it any longer, but I recal the Fairfield women's teams referred to as the Lady Stags. Huh?!?!
