Very nice of St. Fort and Beecham to compliment McIntyre in the post. She certainly deserves it.

Nice non-conference schedule. Not many easy games there.

Can't wait to see Beacham get her chance this year. I'm also excited to see what Tatyana Davis can do. I thought she showed a lot of potential last year, even though she didn't shoot well.

IMO Beacham and Davis are the most likely candidates, from last year's bench sitters, to make significant contributions to this year's team. Major problem I see, which they might not be able to resolve, is a lack of a consistent 3 point threat. If there are not at least 2 players who can make the opponent spread the defense they will collapse on McIntyre and Beacham and it will be very hard going.

Rockets picked to finish second in the MAC West -

Last year's top three teams - Buffalo, Central, and Ball State - all look weaker this year, so there may be an opportunity for the Rockets.

I was surprised to see Western picked dead last and by a wide margin. They have a couple very good players in Deja Wimby and Breanna Mobley.

Miami, Ohio, and Eastern all look to be on the rise.
