Massey has HC as a big favorite (66-55) with an 80% chance for the win. With the banners being raised, a loss here would be really tragic, but I believe the team will be ready. So I guess this was a TRAGIC loss with the banners being raised???

Yes, it was...and I expected you to be the one to point that out.

Would have liked to see Foreman out there a little more today as Flanagan struggled to find a flow on offense

Hunter did a fine defensive job of side fronting Berger to prevent entry passes inside

Would have loved to have seen BPC on the court longer in the 4th quarter and some plays called for her down the stretch.

Instead of visiting here, would your time be better served updating your website, which looks like a middle schooler’s project in his first computer class? Or finding a girlfriend? Maybe Picking up a 2nd job and moving out of your parents’ basement? Again, do with your time as you wish, but as an outsider, it seems as though there are better things you could do with your time that you might benefit from.

IMO that bucket by Army puts it out of HC's reach. HC could not buy a 3 pt bucket today (only 2 of 14). They need Allen back in there. Outmuscled today, Allen would help in that regard. Army committed 22 fouls and that was with laissez faire officiating - should have been 32 fouls. If they allowed all that grabbing in the low post in a mens game it would have gotten out of hand. When HC was up 7 or 8; they missed 2 foul shots; BPC missed a wide open bunny (and fouled someone on the rebound). A larger lead might have made a difference in the remainder of the ballgame. And Wright missed 2 in a row down close after Army started to come back.

Army guards bigger which bothered our guards while trying to get to the basket offensively. size advantage also allowed army with just a little space to pull up offensively in midrange and shoot over our guards. Army also physically stronger at all positions. I think we got their best performance of the year and it doesn’t help that prior HC DOBO from last year is on Army staff. We did nothing which surprised them. Also kept 4 timeouts in our pocket despite watching 9 point lead turn into 10 point deficit and shot 2-17 from 3 until the last minute

I know the school likes to keep injury details secretive but can we agree Allen is now out because of injury and not a 2 week case of the flu ?

Which would tend to say if ill, she's not contagious (or someone's judgement is incredibly poor) And bringing up something from this morning, my guess is BG did NOT attend.

2nd half defense has really let us down in these last two games 42 points by Lehigh and 45 today by Army - for the no.1 defense in the league that will not cut it

They've overachieved perhaps, coming down to their real level.

BG was NOT in attendance and if memory serves only Sherry who never played for him did not mention him but choked up about her relationship with Togo, the others did praise him, some did more than others.

I had the same thought that MM should have called a time out or two when Army turned a 9-10 point deficit in the total other direction but figured she knew best. Thought that sort of thing was SOP for any coach and not like she only had 1 or 2 left.

Coach said Janelle is close to being back, implied bye week is going to help with injuries

I'm going to watch the entire jersey raising video soon but in previewing it I noticed Nick Smith is the M.C. No complaints, but just wondered if there was a reason why either Kit or Senior Women's Administrator Rose Shea was not the MC?
I can't recall Rose doing much public speaking over the years so maybe she asked Nick to do it. From the couple of minutes I watched he did a fine job.

Highlight for me was when Amy mentioned the Greendale Y and the Wonder Bar (founded by my grandfather in 1922).

I thought they each did a great job and the messages they offered gave us a view of a successful past with great admiration expressed for special coaches
Appreciate what the Athletic Department and the Administration did yesterday.

Kit did a wrap up summary talking about a new initiative to enhance women’s athletics and starting with a $250k donation in the bank. He was there the entire time.
Nick did a nice job and Kit might have just wanted to get him some visibility. The greater surprise for me was Vince was there but no public speaking.

I thought about that and imho think it was a good move
This was a day for women in sports at Holy Cross and a very special day for those being honored. It was their day to share their Holy Cross stories and memories. I think Kit and the school played the celebration just right.
I watched it twice with my granddaughters and suggested the video is about the beauty of sports, teams, friendships, relationships, and commitment to something bigger than the individual. I hope a few are inspired enough to knock on the doors of our great school when it comes time to apply to college.

Well, our first female BoT chair was also there but didn’t speak either. That said, I thought the whole event was nicely done and every speaker did an outstanding job and reflects greatly on their Holy Cross educations.
