Nice game by Katie. It's interesting to watch how quickly freshmen adapt to the college game. Katie is one of three freshmen and the other two were highly touted yet it is Katie that has started every game. Kendell has had some nagging injuries snd the guard position is pretty crowded but she hasn't looked that comfortable when she does get minutes. It's like Jess Genco. We are the only one to offer her a scholarship and she starts every game as a freshman playing almost forty minutes a game.

NU got another solid win Sunday, this time over William and Mary 88-74.

NU was led by Jess Genco with 30 pts, Shannon Toddd 17 and Gabby Giacone 13.

Jess had an unbelievable career here and we'll miss her. On the plus side, the freshmen have all blossomed. Katie has been a starter since day one and Hill has been good but Kendall, over the last four games, has been averaging about thirty minutes a game and scoring double figures. In one game she had five steals. They can make it interesting with another good incoming class.

Good luck tonight. Should be a helluva contest. You played us very tough in both contests, so I don't take NU lightly. Tough brand of basketball played up there in Boston.

You nailed it.

Next year we’ll have Katie May, Kendall Currence, Alexis Hill, Stella Clark, Ayana Dublin, Shannon Todd, Courtney Redcross and Jasmin Braswell all return.

That’s really good nucleus to build from.

Hill looked really good tonight. It was nice to see the three freshmen on the court at the same time. Jess got a lot of points but most were foul shots. If she can bounce back from a sub part shooting night........
