Subject: NIT would salivate over the chance to get Marist women, but sure we will get the MAAC tourney win Author: Yankee [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:59:21 02/06/09 Fri In reply to: Anon 's message, "Re: Great crowd and atmosphere on the broadcast...." on 22:52:48 02/06/09 Fri NIT would love to have the Marist "story" in their tournament. Yes it is starting to wane nationally, but the name Marist is still recognizable in womens hoops. Marist will be in the NIT as a last resort.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: NCAA or bust.... Author: Oldfox [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 23:33:17 02/06/09 Fri It's the NCAA appearances that gets the Kristin Doughery's of the world to consider Marist, not the NIT. I think when you play the role of the giant killing, overachieving Middie perceptions are so important. Stumbling to an NIT bid is after starting 17-1 is just taking a step back. If people don't think that Marist can win an NCAA tournament game this year, then nobody else in the MAAC has any chance at all. Might as well be Marist and get the experience of the big time. One other item about tonights game. Does anybody else think he shortened the bench just like the FF loss. No Kolosar or Stallings, very little Yarde. Anybody venture a guess why or if it makes any difference? Has he coached differently in these two games?

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Gang was the least of their problems..... Author: Oldfox [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 08:27:51 02/07/09 Sat this was a team effort. - poor perimeter defense (especially to start the game) - could neither make a shot nor make a stop down the stretch, outscored 16-6. - not a single offensive rebound in the last 12 minutes. Unlike FF where they seemed to get caught off guard by the opponents game plan, everyone knew what the Griff were going to shoot long jump shots until their arms fell off. Kudos to the Griff players for draining them, but too bad the Marist kids waited so long into the contest to follow their defensive game plan.

Author: B [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:01:47 02/08/09 Sun She took way too many threes and fell right into the Canisius defensive game plan. Giorgis needs to red-light her on the 3's. Fitz worked like crazy in the post in the second half and did not get nearly enough touches. And Canisius had foul trouble with their bigs - what a missed opportunity! I saw Laterza get away with sliding out on a high screen earlier in the game, which should have been called, only to get busted on the same play later. Gang will be a very good player, but her rebounding has been a big problem all season. She needs to get in and bang down low before she can be compared to Dahlman or Fitz. Even Yarde is a better rebounder at this point.
