mes102 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Game is a 1:00pm start.We have had their number as of late. They're playing their 6th game in 8 days. However, They're playing really well, and will be tough to beat. Their players are playing to the potential everyone thought they would. Good luck to the Lady Zips!!!!!! These ladies have worked hard to get back to this point, and they're back and ready to win the program's first MAC Championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJGood Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Always a very good sign to be in the championship and being able to be the better seed in that game. I don't watch the Lady Zips a lot but I will be watching today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Hats off to Coach Kest. She basically took a Division III team and turned it into a MAC contender. I don't think it would be a stretch to say when she took over the WBB program, it was the worst program in the country. It may have been the worst program of any WBB or MBB program out there. The WBB program was way worse off than the football program when either Ianello or Faust were fired. It was a disaster. She ruffled a lot of feathers early on, but it isn't easy to turn a program with a long history of accepting losing into a winning program. Recruiting players and coaching them is part of the job and a coach being good at that should be expected. The culture change had to have been the most difficult job because a coach is never really training to do that. She demanded more and got more. Funny how that work.

Balsy Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Lady Zips will get it done today! Go Zips!For those who don't watch the Lady Zips regularly, you should begin to follow them. They play a very fun brand of basketball, and in someway they seem capable of surpassing the men in competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave in Green Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Lady Zips up 47-30 a minute into the second half. Should we be nervous about a 17-point lead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Lady Zips up 47-30 a minute into the second half. Should we be nervous about a 17-point lead?They're the 12th best FT shooting team in the country. I think they'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDZip Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 After watching them last year I really thought they'd have a shot this year but when Sina King went down and CMU and BGSU played so well thought they had a much longer shot at it but things really fell their way in this tournament and are really taking advantage. Wouldn't it be ironic if the first NCAA tournament win came from the ladies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msopher Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Nice to see Akron dancing! Was hoping a player like Tecca would get a chance to show off her talents on the biggest stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippyfan34 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 So with BG ranked 25 before their loss, the MAC should be a 2 bid league. Women's bracketology says BG is in the next 4 out so maybe not and they have Akron as a 13 seed. http://espn.go.com/womens-college-basketball/bracketology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mes102 Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 I thought the Ball State coach was very classy in what he said. They're my favorites to win it all next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
