A decent schedule but I wish we had a few more home games. Carlson’s 5 th year+ she’s still playing with 2 of Bennet’s Recruits (Woods-May). I’m hoping she can take that program to the NCAA tourney soon.

This program has made great strides under Lisa---unlike the counterparts that also play basketball. They have been hampered by disastrous injuries (almost always knees) and actually do play in a conference with a couple very, very, very good women's programs.

With Sue Guevara retiring at Central Michigan perhaps they will come back to the pack a little bit and we can take that next step into tourney play.

And, really pretty cool to see the Compass Challenge. Awesome.

Agree with everything you say and hopefully this group gets to the big dance-to me that’s the measuring stick.

IF they can stay healthy, they could make a decent run albeit WNIT. Looking for 23 wins based on the schedule. Purdink will be a good test. The program continues to get better each year. The Jr class is special and the young lady from Decatur, IN plays a lot like Ally Lehman (don't know about the other Freshmen). Carlson has turned the program around and believe this group, with the Senior leadership should make the elite 8 if not the final 4 in the WNIT. While not popular, WBB is more entertaining than MBB.

I think they might miss the red headed asst as he seemed to be the x's and o's guy.
