I know, this belongs on the women's board on this site, but I thought that they deserve a mention here. Big, big win against GW last night.
As per the ESPN Bracketologist for the Women, that locked up an NCAA Tourney bid with a projected 9 seed.

They play their A-10 Championship game today at 5:00pm on ESPN2 against Temple. I'll be watching.

Hey, it's more exposure and money for the school. Great job, gals!!!!

Exposure yes. Money? Does a Women's NCAA Tournament share pay for the travel party's expenses?

I caught quite a bit of the second half of the game on CSTV yesterday. GW got in foul trouble, and Phillips and Harris just pounded them down low. From my very limited observations of the women's team, it looks like they could be fantastic if they could surround Harris and Phillips with just a little help.

If Amy Waugh was on this team they'd be a National Champioship contender. They're a little short on outside shooting. Their freshman point guard- Special Jennings who's from up here in Cleveburg, is really starting to contribute.

And, yeah. Because of ESPN's contract to show all those Gal NCAA games, there's a nice check for the school if they make the Tournament. It's not like the CBS bonanza, but a chunk of change, nonetheless.

And not one senior on the team. This team is going to be good for a long long time. Xavier will become the flagship for Men's and women's baskteball soon.

I was just saying the same thing yesterday. Reetta Piipari would be an awesome contributor as well, or even Michelle Miller with her ability to shoot the 3.

Congratulations, Lady Muskies; keep it goin'!

2 juniors and 4 players who were All-Americans in high school. Look the hell out the next couple of years and especially look the hell out if they get an outside combo to match the Harris-Phillips combo inside.
