    Reagan Bass is out for the OU game. Is she injured? 35-30 Kitties, about 2 minutes to play in the half.

    Ali made 8 of 9 two-pointers. 1 of 4 from deep.

    What a bum Boals is! Down 9 with 8 seconds to play he tells his kids to FOUL! Jeff Capel was like that for SMU once playing in the Diamond Head and as he left the floor I told him "Boy, I'm glad I'm not your AD!" Larry Brown came in the next season and turned the SMUs around. 🤣

    Jordyn's brother Mikyl! Yes!!

    Duh? 😂🤩

    Como se dice "Wow"? 🤯

    "Joint practice" means nothing more than a scrimmage versus another team. Since the article limits the sphere to the MAC, I suspect it means MAC teams scrimmaging each other. What is to be gained by that? I'm not sure...

    For Akron WBB this is the toughest trudge of the season, the struggle to finish and hopefully get a top-four seed (would that gain a first-round bye or something?). The currently third place Zips will be underdogs in the next three games @Bowling Green, @Ohio and vs Buffalo at home -- they finish with Miami at the JAR. For this team to finish in the top four it will require at least one win in the next three -- I think the most likely coming versus #2 U@Buffalo. However the regular season concludes, this has been a dramatic possible turning point for the program. The team should be chosen at least for the WNIT, which would mark the first return to the post-season in like six or seven seasons. Jordyn Dawson is still in contention for league player of the year, and coach Jackson for coach of the year. Hope the fans and especially the students will come out and cheer the team on in its two remaining home contests and at the Fieldhouse.

    Keep him away from coach Howard in the hand shake line! 😄

    It's the Clark and Wynne Show!

    Sure hope they don't bring back Jim Chones to replace Wyndon. He once got confused and talked about Akron's road record vs OH, when they were playing at the JAR! 🤪

    The poor man's Saul Philips! 😁

    What are Regan's chances of being Freshman of the Year? I think there's a player in (what used to be) the West, who's a contender...Western Mich maybe? Still, she has to be on the all-freshman team.

    Four of the final five at home for the Zips. Biggest is on 3/2 vs #2 and frankly disappointing (and very beatable) Buffalo Bulls. That's also a matchup between Jordyn and Dyaisha Fair two of the three top candidates for MAC POY, who are both scoring in the 20s or 30s every game. Cece's getting the pub with her scoring record, but coach Bolden's team is another disappointing club -- with NO bench.

    I love the continued commitment to the Coaches Against Cancer campaign by Melissa and the team. I wish Groce would do something to remember the legacy of Danny Peters.
  16. Z.I.P.
    Well...THAT's a first! 🤷‍♂️🤣
  17. Z.I.P.
    Wonder if she's passed Joe Jakubick yet...🤔
  18. Z.I.P.
    I'll take it. But only 78 today. 🥶
  19. Z.I.P.
    Our friends from 12 miles are taking apart the hated Rockets. 36-20 at the half at Savage. Go Flushes! 🤗
  20. Z.I.P.
    Sorry, but...who is "Seny"? Only person on roster close to that is Isaiah Brooks-Sena -- who's a GA coach. 🤔
  21. Z.I.P.
    He was all Groce had in the post at the time. The Rodney Tetzloff of his day! Who was better of those two... 😒
  22. Z.I.P.
    Thus Western Michigan won 80-73 in Athens. 2nd place Buffalo also lost, in OT to NIU. Akron sits alone in 3rd. Team to watch, the women of Brimfield with 5 straight wins and a favorable schedule. Zips vs Flushettes, next Saturday, 2 p.m. at the JAR.

    I don't see the Zips winning this one using the style they've shown too often of late. In other words, I don't think they can win ugly or by just "scraping by". That means they have to start fast and win the first half of basketball. If Akron takes the lead into the locker room, they could win going away -- otherwise they could be in trouble. And Mr Ali x 2 gotta bring it from the start tonight! If Ali squared and Mr Double Double double down early and take the game inside the paint, rather than this team depending mostly on 3-point accuracy then the squad's chances grow exponentially. Taking the ball to the hoop will open up space for Trimble, Dawson and Ali to take higher percentage jumpers around the shooting arch. And making those free throws that come as a consequence of driving to the hoop could be crucial. If it's close, it could be a free-throw shooting contest between two suspect FT shooting teams. Prediction? Zips take a four point lead to the lockers and slowly expand on and grow it to double figures before the Flushes make a furious late rally that draws even late. Both teams get T'd up but Robby S breaks new ground in benchside misdemeanor and must be held back by his assistants from tearing in half either the head referee or a member of the AK Rowdies. Toss a coin. Akron 71 Cant State 64.

    I looked and don't see any punters listed on the recruiting list, but I may have missed (or he plays 2 positions?). What's the name? Mahalo.

    Our #BallHawg carries Akron to its biggest win of the season with a stat line of 26, 10, 6 and 5 (steals). Led her team in all categories. What will we do next year??? 😄
