WBB has doubled their win total from last season (all games)! Kennedy had an off night shooting again but with about 2:30 left in the game (IIRC) drained a long trey at the shot clock to give the Buffs a five point lead which was just enough. With ten seconds left Monica picked off an in-bounds pass that sealed the game!
Zoe Correal 16 pts & 15 rbds! In front of her HS coach.
Alexis Robinson 15 pts, 6 ast!
Kennedy 9 pts, 7 ast in 40 minutes.
Can the Buffs get two more wins in the regular season and put themselves in position for a WNIT bid?
Re: the bolded ... They only need one more win for WNIT eligibility. Eligibility for an invite requires a record of .500 or better. It used to be "better than .500" but was changed to ".500 or better" a few years ago. Buffs are at 14-11 with 4 more regular season games. So with 4 games to go, if they go 1-3 the record is 15-14. Then, once into the conference tourney, if they lose first game, it's 15-15, which has them eligible. If they win first tourney game, they will end up above .500.WBB has doubled their win total from last season (all games)! ....................

Most likely opportunities for a win the home game with Oregon and at the end of the regular season with Washington State. It would be a great achievement for this team to make the post season and with so many players returning for next season the extra practice and games will help them progress on both ends of the court.
Why do UConn's women always play at home? I don't understand it.
