IUWBB vs North Carolina - Monday, 11.25.24 @ Noon

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,958]

UNC leading Villanova by 20 with under 4 minutes left so I'm feelin' pretty confident it's UNC we'll be facing for the Battle 4 Atlantis Championship.  Who da thunk after the Harvard and Butler games?   Tarheels (4-1) only loss was to UConn 69-58.  On the post-game CTM pretty much ruled Syd out for tomorrow which was hardly a surprise.  Said they'd have to wait for imaging.   Can't expect another 30 point game from Shay but someone will have to help put points on the board.  And with Syd out, Jules has got to find a way to stay out of foul trouble.  Need more than 12 minutes/game from her.  Haven't heard a word about Beaumont and if she's expected back anytime soon or not.

Championship game at noon on a Monday? Who planned this event?

And why is my Comcast channel guide say we're playing Villanova?  UNC beat 'Nova 53-36.

Shay Ciezki 34-point performance was the most points scored in a game by a Hoosier since Amanda Cahill in 2018 (4OT vs Michigan State).

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,958]

Pre-game radio CTM said they'll continue to watch Lexi's minutes but no mention of what caused her to miss several games.   No update on Syd.

[LamarCheeks 19,116]

Starters ... 

Syd out.  LaMendola in. 

[mamasa 15,334]

Lots of misses early before draining one

[mamasa 15,334]

Garzon!!!! 

[mamasa 15,334]

Sloppy!!!

[LamarCheeks 19,116]

Meister just got away with the most obvious double-dribble in the history of basketball!

[mamasa 15,334]

How was that not a foul on that rebound??

[LamarCheeks 19,116]

Striplin, Bargesser and Sandvik all in early.

Guessing we'll need to be deep today, especially with Syd out.  This is our third game in less than 72 hours. 

Our start times went from 4:30 p.m. to 1 p.m. to noon.

Yeah -- she completely knocked her out of bounds. 

Maybe because she wasn't bleeding? 

[LamarCheeks 19,116]

Heels up 11-10 after 10 minutes. 

We jumped out 5-0, but have struggled since. 

[TheWatShot 14,081]

I know we can't expect to have a Mackenzie Holmes on this team every year, but our bigs are just bad. 

[Banksyrules 4,814]

Our perimeter shooting needs to get hot. Tough grinder so far.

[LamarCheeks 19,116]

That was a really, really, really dumb foul by Meister. 

At that point, you gotta just let her go.
