Massey has HC as a three point favorite over URI (67-64) and he gives us a 56% c chance for the win. HC's one loss was on the road, so this may be an important game.
The Rams have a record of.4-2 with wins over LIU Brooklyn, Hartford, Vermont and Fairfield (by 33). They have lost at North Dakota and at Boston College (by 11).

Holy Cross fans will be "watching" this game on Unity Radio unless they navigate to the URI athletic site to learn the game will be shown on ESPN plus.
Classes have already been cancelled at HC for tomorrow which probably means the school is officially closed due to snow, so I'll wager the hot dog I plan on winning next year in the PL football pick-em that HC will not get around to informing their fans there will be live video of this game like URI has already informed their fans via the WBB schedule on their website.
Not a global crisis but when I pay $4.95 per month for a service, I want to get my money's worth and I hope as many fans as possible get to see this team play as they try to follow the FB team into NCAA tournament play.

I shot the Vermont game against URI last week. Jorgensen is a force on the inside on defense blocking shots and offensively can really step out. I wasn’t impressed with much else on the URI team though. The biggest issue will be dealing with the small crowd in a large arena.

They practiced for that with a tiny crowd in a small arena at Brown.

URI is rated 204 (as of 12/2) HC is rated 143 (as of 12/2) A win may not help HC's rank much, but a loss will mean a sharp drop and it may be a while before the team moves up again. After all, it's not like they beat a team like Boston Collage.

ESPN+ now added to the WBB schedule on goholycross.com for both the URI and UMass games. Somebody came in on a snow day to update that. Thank you!

Just to let you know, you do not have to come into the Luth to update the website. You don’t have to trudge up the hill. It can be done at home while snug in your PJ’s on a snowy day.
Today’s technology allows it to be done even from Boca. Where it was sunny. 😎 after a victory over Mercer.

I don't mind complaining about lack of effort updating the website compared to neighboring schools UMass and URI. I figure the staffers are mostly young and can benefit from a cranky old guy holding them to task. Although we don't actually pay to use the website I feel like a consumer advocate for quality service. Think Ralph Nader singlehandedly taking down the Chevrolet Corvair: "Unsafe at any speed."

Back to tonight's game URI has been a bottom-feeder in the A-10 for many years and hired a new coach (former Syracuse asst) in the spring - they look to be improved and we will be tested - my worry with our team right now is depth which will bite us on nights when we get into foul trouble - Ezemma has been coming off the bench and maybe she'll have a big night back in her home state

HC (and Manis) cold inside. SAders may need to start taking 3s.

Deep 3 makes it URI 21-9 in the 1st quarter. URI shot 57% (HC shot 29%) They have to start cutting into this spread to get it down to 5 or less by halftime.

Santa only granted one fabulous shooting night in the Ocean State in December. If they want to win they'll have to outhustle the big Rams.

With this year’s talented squad the schedule was really not ramped up much - Illinois and BC are the toughest games but they’re both at the bottom of their leagues - that means we have the pressure of winning every night if we want to be truly special- let’s hope we can turn this around in the 2nd half

Very nice end to the half. Gotta chance for a win.

Neither team scores in the last minute - URI by 9 at the half.
