Was Mizzou better?...um...yeah. They're the #16 team in the country for a reason. They are, by far, the toughest team we'll play this season at least through the conference tournament. An upset would have been awesome...like on the level of WIU taking down Wisconsin a few years back...but would have been a huge surprise. I thought that the girls played well against a team that was much bigger and much more physical than anyone in our conference. Sure, there's some things to work on...it's the first real game...but there were a lot of good things going on.

This year we have a ton of freshman and it's going to take a while to gel. Would love to see #14 at the point instead of Kaufmann, and maybe that will come. Sure, we are lacking in height and strength, but there were some good things. #33 looks to be good on the boards, and #1 as a redshirt Junior is a boost.

And yes, I saw some really good things last night like fight, determination, aggressive rebounding, and we actually at times got physical with the Tigers. But what Emily gave us while she played at WIU was the ability to go to the rack and score or dish to a team mate for a 3. We never got any set-up 3's last night because we over drove the hoop a number of times with out good court vision. I know with as many young players that we have, it is going to take time. A lot of work to do! Oh, one more thing, it was really a fun night last night. I was very happy to be a part of a large and loud crowd at Western Hall. There was a ton of student and fan support, especially in the first half. Volleyball game was entertaining also and good things will come with our new volleyball coach! jc
