    When we had a deep bench. A short bench is going to be hard. This year the top 4 IMHO for the women is the best it's been in the summit league. Western and iupui are contenders not pretenders like last year. I still like our chances. If we play Saturday I'm 95% sure we win it all. Playing Sunday I'm more 70%. We win it all.

      I agree,keeping players as fresh as possible for the entire three days will be an important aspect to having a successful SLT ,as well as managing the foul situations,TO's ,substitutions,,do you ride the hot hand as long as possible,etc....so much goes into running the team so it can run as smoothly as possible and score and play defense as efficiently as possible too...This can become tricky at times ,don't want them gassed the 4th Qtr, but don't want to fall too far behind by not keeping the intensity level as high as we need it either..... glad we have the Coaching staff we have,I feel very comfortable game management is in their very capable hands.

      If we get past the semi-final round, I like our chances of taking it all, semi-finals will feel like playing for the Championship in years past. The Championship game will be insane.

        The good thing for us in the women's side is none of the top 4 is particularly deep. Also, considering the top 2 seeds fairer very poorly against us at home makes me very confident in our ability to win it all. I would put my money on an all SD final due to the friendly confines of DeFrost.

          Maybe there will be some WIU representatives there recruiting fans for the game.

              It will be interesting how many bison fans make the trip.

              In past years the excuse has always been "outta money and pto, because frisco".

              What say you now bison fans?

                Both of their teams will be playing on Saturday. They could make Day 1 without problem.

                  Also surprised that Ober isn't Defensive Player of the Year. I realize Braun leads in blocked shots, but considering they sit in a zone and she doesn't actually guard anyone makes this a weird choice. Maybe trying to not look like too much of a homer?

                    The homer thing plus the games Ober was injured may influence a decision. She may need to get on the SLT team to regain her glow!

                      Looks like they have opened up the majority of the upper bowl (both sides, just not the end sections), as the lower bowl is either sold out or nearly sold out for all sessions. For the Saturday evening and both Sunday sessions, there are only single seats available in the lower bowl.

                        Although I do not believe this year will break any attendance records, there is small shout-out to SDSU fans in the story.

                            I think SDSU Twitter feed or their Facebook page said to be on the look out this afternoon for award announcements.

                              Summit League has their press conference this afternoon at the Denny where they will announce awards.
