They are down 27-17 at end of 1st. They have given up a bunch of 3s and Stonebraker misses shots right under the hoop.

BTW, these SIUE analysts keep going to replays after SIUE makes a shot and when NIU has the ball so you miss the NIU possessions.

SIUe is 7-for-10 on threes (NIU 3-for-12) and has outrebounded NIU 21-14.

We just don't play defense, so many open 3's given up.

Losing to a 1-7 team by 10 points. Yikes!

I'll be the first one this year to start the "This has to be the last year for Coach Carlsen" bandwagon. I know she is good person, but the results have never been there.

You can sign me up for that too. Unfortunately STF gave her a 2 yr extension last April so she’s probably safe for another year. I said in an earlier thread her best year was her second season and she signed none of those players. This is her 9th season so how long do we have to wait for some real success? To me her .500ish (or now a little below) career record is not good enough. I’m old (saw my first Huskie football game in 1965) I would like to see some sustained success in a sport I enjoy watching before I can no longer attend games.

A hiatus from hiatus, for stats only ...
