Mean Green Women's Basketball Vs New Mexico

[chrisfisher]

I assume 88.1 will carry, but I am not sure.

[CMJ]

Yeah, I have an ear on the game while i'm working on something. Ladies sound pretty decent so far.

[GrandGreen]

NT leads at half, 32-30; great game so far.

[SUMG]

UNM...comes into this game 7-1....including a 7-0 home record. (wins over Nebraska, Depaul, NMexico State)

Their only loss was to Stanford on the road:

63-63 1:09 to play

[CMJ]

UNM up by 2 with just a few seconds to go...Lobos to the line.

[CMJ]

UNM 66

NT 63

Final

Great effort by the girls

[GrandGreen]

So close, this could have been the biggest oc victory in years. IMO, Slinker would have lost this game by 30. Just could not finish the deal, but great effort tonight before over 7800. How you get this close shooting 30% is a tribute too how hard they must have played. NT with only 13 turnovers, a great improvement especially considering the venue.

I'm having high hopes for this women's team in years to come

Coach Stephens sounds devastated.

Coach Stephens sounds devastated.

She certainly did.

"We gave it away" said Stephens. She wasn't about to accept congratulations for a moral victory.

[SUMG]

Nice game by our ladies. Really proud of them. And do know this....Coach Stephens is doing this with all of Coach Slinker's players. Stephens' highly touted recruits and transfers...aren't eligible until 2009-2010.

Next game....Sunday at SMU.

Moral victories are excuses for losers. Glad to see Stephens is not going to accept them.

Coach Stephens is a class act all the way. And talk about animated on the sideline! And over 6800 in attendance? That's downright crazy! Lovin' it!

[NT03]

You think RV can start forcing Hedlund,Jones & now Stephens to pull double duty by coaching both soccer/basketball and football? I mean seriously what would it hurt ???
