Blue & Gold Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Faith Stinson played extremely well. In fact, when we were down 11-3 she’s the Zip who got us back in the game with not one, but two big 3-pointers IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalZIP Posted November 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 When Bass picked up a quick 2nd foul, it felt like it was going to be a 40-point ass-kicking. She only wound up playing like 4 minutes of the first half, but the Zips locked down defensively and it was very impressive. YSU’s forward was having her way early on, and didn’t do much the rest of the game. Many Zip teams over the last 6 years would have crumbled in either of these first two home games, but this team seems to be pretty resilient. They kept playing hard on defense despite not getting anything but chucked up threes to fall early, and they played themselves back into it. The quality of the MAC is still very high despite the departure of Legette-Jack at UB. A Zips womens ticket is a great buy if you want something to do on a Wednesday night, and this is an easy team and staff to get behind! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon further review, it was actually when the Zips we’re down 20-3 that Faith hit her two big 3’s to give the Zips life. One at the end of the first quarter and then another at the start of the 2nd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDZip Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 With the men's game really only available on radio I turned the women's game on ESPN+ against Robert Morris. They look pretty good, working really well as a team. Last year they relied on Jordyn Dawson this year it's spread around much more evenly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted November 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Zips on their way to another win, leading this one wire to wire so far. I’m very impressed so far, and surprised. Hopefully they can make a splash in MAC play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z.I.P. Posted November 27, 2022 Report Share Posted November 27, 2022 MAC Women's Basketball: Ball State makes the trip to the Beehive State and comes home with two big victories. Defeated usually nationally ranked BYU in Provo 61-56. That after scoring a 25 point win over Utah State earlier this week. Lady Balls look like another NCAA tournament quality team.

ewbrooman1 Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Women lead Point Park by 30+ in 3Q. Watching on ESPN3. I can't find Aila Miller anywhere. Any news? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 The announcer noted the Zips only had 10 players available tonight. Flu? Idk. I think the final score was 101-45!! As a Zips fan I REALLY needed that tonight. Thank you beautiful ladies!!! Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue & Gold Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Sunday at the JAR should be a nice day of basketball! At 2:00 the men face Jackson State and then at 5:00 the women face Cleveland State. I've not heard, but I'd have to imagine a men't ticket would be good for both games. I'm planning on staying and catching both! Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning on staying and catching both! Go Zips! The CSU game ought to be much more competitive than the men's contest with Jackson State -- if not it will raise questions about Groce's squad...or coach Jackson's depending on the circumstances...hope I've not confused anyone! lol. Cleveland State is now 7-1 with their only loss to top-10 Iowa State in Ames, Iowa. They own an overtime win over usually nationally ranked DePaul in Chicago. Also defeated Oakland, Akron's only loss by 23 points at the Woolstein Ctr. Vikings are led by Jr guard Destiny Leo from Willowick with 17.8 ppg, a 39% 3-point shooter who's made 26 of 27 FTs. However, they have a long rotation with 11 players averaging over 8 minutes per game. I suspect Cleveland State would be near the top of this year's MAC WBB standings if they were members. This game should tell a lot for both teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z.I.P. Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 This week's updated women's Mid Major Top 25. Zips receiving votes while the MAC has 5 of the top 20 teams. And Cleveland St at...was it #10 I think? A victory over the Vikings would HAVE to move Akron into the top 25 one would expect. https://collegeinsider.com/womens-mid-major-top-25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewbrooman1 Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Zips women travel south to Florida to play in the Hatter Classic against Stetson on Sunday at 11 am and Bethune-Cookman at 1 pm on Monday.

zippy-claws Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 And the crowd was HUGE! not....but the Zips women played well, and ESPN+ coverage wasn't bad. Very cold start but they were the more athletic team and it kicked in in the second quarter, and they withstood a Stetson run in the 3rd and won by 8. Dominque Camp looked (sacrilege!) Dawson-esque in her best game as a Zip. These are games they should win, so the MAC will be intriguing to see. But nice early morning (although we watched after the World Cup on DVR) Victory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted December 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2022 Winning games they should be winning! Great to see. Conference play will be interesting. A top 8 finish would be great as a rebound year after Dawson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalZIP Posted December 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2022 They were looking rough in the first half.
