Western starts the season ranked #104 nationally in Division I via the Cooper Predictor and #2 in the OVC.

Western is expected to control the tempo from the opening tip-off and win by a wide margin (historical/model projections like Betimate point to a lopsided home victory similar to past series meetings where Western handles NAIA competition comfortably by 25+ points). 

 

Yikes if this team can play that quick and just a little more under control watch out. I was very impressed with the freshman form Burlington she might start before seasons end. It was great to see Shelby find her shot in the second half shes going to be huge if this team is going to do anything.

a bit of a slow start, but picked things up after the first quarter. Was a good first game to knock off some of the rust.
