Women's Game vs. Toledo

[skip-zip]

I don't want to let this go without a discussion....After 30 years of watching Akron Women's Basketball, I've come to brace myself to see the inevitable outcomes year in and year out. Even last year, when we started out pretty good early, some posters felt some optimism. I wasn't seeing it..and the season eventually ended like so many others over the past decades.BUT...What I saw yesterday was my first ever indication that there might be light at the end of the tunnel. We knocked off a good MAC team, with a history of winning, and a surprisingly good following of fans for a MAC women's team. I saw a team that has talent, plays with a desire to win, and was in no way intimidated by who they were playing. I see people like Baumgartner and Murphy becoming big stars who will anchor the program in the coming years. This was the 2nd time this year that I have gone to one of their games...and I think I'll have an interesting in going to a few more before it's over. And I haven't felt like that in quite a few years.

Yeah the ladies looked good out there. But did you see that Toledo chick nail that half court shot at the half buzzer? That was just sick.

i have to say that the women's game was WAY more entertaining than the men's game.

Can't State..that shot was amazing. Everyone I was with had already turned to head towards the concessions...and didn't even see it. By the time they turned around, they missed the whole thing. Goes to show you...wait until the horn...or you might just miss something.

that's because it sure looked like it happened after the horn. The red lights on the scoreboards didnt got off on time.
