[> Subject: Has us as an 11 seed facing Vandy Author: Yankee [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:53:09 03/02/09 Mon I saw Vandy play a bit the day they were suppossed to be showing the Marist-Hartford game. They reminded me a LOT of our Kresge led teams. Smooth shooters inside and a point guard that looks to pass and the defense lays off defending her shot.

[> Subject: Good to see the little arrow next to Marist in the bracket pointing north.... Author: Oldfox [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:20:33 03/02/09 Mon for a change. Its taken a while but they've seem to have turned a corner in the perception game. Nothing works like winning, especially when one of them was covered by ESPN2. Still, I don't think they want to leave their fate up to a committee. Just win the tournament and earn a decent seed. Pretty tough bracket for the Ladies in Albany. Canisius is catching a break with Siena or a wobbly FF squad over either the St. Peter's or Iona squads Marist will have to face. Would like to see Marist be able to rest their starters more than usual in the second half on Friday, especially Viani and Allenspach. They will need their "shooters" legs fresh on Saturday and hopefully Sunday.

[> [> Subject: I am glad we avoid Siena women Author: Yankee [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 20:10:21 03/02/09 Mon Even though those people don't really care about womens basketball because they kinda stink at it:), I am sure the place would have a decent crowd in the center seats because of the all session passes the season ticket holders have. Plus, they played us tough up there this year.

[> [> [> Subject: Agree, but for a different reason.... Author: Oldfox [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 21:00:47 03/02/09 Mon no team leader has been as pointed in her comments about marist as Stec has. She was quoted in the TU as saying they are "human just like us" and no opposing star has had as miserable a pair of games against Marist as she has this year. Castelli seems to cringe when someone utters Marist. They are great competitors and would give anything for another shot this year. Unfortunately, FF seems to be an awful match-up, and Canisius is on a tear. Getting to the finals is a tall order for the Lady Saints.

[> Subject: Duluth GA or Chatanoooogaaa Author: Andy [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 07:11:33 03/03/09 Tue Just put them in one of thise brackets and I'm there woot.

[> [> Subject: Maybe yes, maybe no. Author: TG28 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:26:02 03/04/09 Wed Andy, latest guesstimates have Marist as an 11 seed against Vandy in Chattanooga by Charlie Creme (good for you) and Jerry Palm has them as a 12 against Florida in Columbus (good for me).

[> Subject: Re: ESPN article mentions Marist as a possible at large-good info on other teams Author: ohio [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 11:25:58 03/03/09 Tue Maybe Stec had two terrible games against Marist because Marist played very good defense against her!!! Always makes me nuts when a player blames a poor showing on "having a bad game" instead of having a good defense played on them. Should be a good tournament, and likely be a Marist/Canisius final. Glad to see Gang get on all rookie team, was a little afraid no Marist frosh would make it.

[> [> Subject: They picked like 8 players for the all-rook team. Author: Oldfox [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 20:29:26 03/04/09 Wed It either means the league is loaded with young talent, or the coaches have formed a mutual admiration society. All the Marist frosh had their moments this year but Gang seemed to catch on the quickest and was the most consistent contributor of the group. Yarde is definitely next on the list. She came in with the reputation for offense but her rebounding has impressed me more. Agree with you regarding why Stec may have had two bad games against Marist. Just to be clear, the comments I cited were made before the teams played this year.
