Stonehill threw up garbage shots all game and amazingly made some (though very few) of those shots. Air balls and shots that weren’t even close to the basket if they could even get a shot up during the lengthy shot clock were plentiful. UB should have won this game by 50, and Burke seemed to feel the same way. Shortly after the start of the second half she yelled something to the players on the court along the lines of “You have to play better, it’s embarrassing.” Normally a good lead at the half isn’t embarrassing but 23 points isn’t going to work in MAC play.

I went and saw a game in Marquette’s equivalent facility for a lacrosse game. They had roughly the same number of people UB gets these days. It was quit nice

Should be a winnable game. It is very early in the season, but I wanted to see where UB is perceived to be in terms of the MAC. Only ranking site I am aware of for WBB is Massey (need a BarbiePom.com or LisaTorvik.com - please forgive my attempted humor). Based on Massey the women are ranked fifth best in the MAC at 163. They are behind Ball St (83); Toledo (90); Kent (109) and Bowling Green (113).

This season really will be what kind of improvement we see by the end of the season The good news......starting pretty low so lots of room to improve I am worried the coaching staff didn't realize the depth issue until they started playing games UB has 6 players right now in Smith, Adams, Chatman, Jones, fulcher and boldin (really impressed by boldin) You can get a workable 7th in sabol if you get him and the team to buy in that he is a shooter this season for spacing A comment on the turnovers, if the refs called the game a bit more tightly RW would have had over half their 16 man bench foul out and the game might still be being played. Very handsy team lots of grabbing and hand checks. Which definitely led to more turnovers
