Had the pleasure of front row seats, surrounded by parents of the players, for the Kennesaw game.

was a really great game,, though obviously not happy with the outcome. Shooting sunk the ladies, 39% in the first half, 37% in the 2nd. and out rebounded like mad.
They fought hard, trailed most of the game, late in the 2nd mounted a run and took a 2 point lead with 11 seconds to go. The play at the Kennesaw end was all set, the defense tied the ball up, got it loose and a scrum along the lane on the left side ensued, somehow K-State squirted the ball out to a player waiting on the wing and she buried a 3 with less than 2 seconds to go. After a pair of timeouts to set up the last play, Jenna was able to get off a halfcourt plus shot, did not come close.
No real shame, Kennesaw is now sitting at 10-2, appears to be a pretty decent team, but not the caliber of what XU will face next when Big East play opens.
thanks for Coach Bryce for his hospitality, and to my old friends Jody Jennike and April Phillips, was great catching up!!
