The Iowa Hawkeyes (12-4, 2-3) showed every hallmark of a team that’s felt the winter illness bug flow through the roster in the first half. Sluggish defense, no legs on three points attempts, an “inside the huddle” cutaway where the only word Ben McCollum was “concentrate.” It wasn’t good. Illinois raced out to an 8-0 […]

We just keep right on winning! We beat LSU in a back-and-forth contest that caused many a childish eruption from Kim Mulkey, then followed it up with a beatdown of Missouri where we learned that this team looks good even when Blakes is playing badly (yes, she ended the game with 20, but 12 of […]

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. – The field goal shooting was mostly foul, but the Hofstra’s Pride’s foul shooting in a literal sense made the difference at the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex on Saturday afternoon. Junior guards Jason Rivera-Torres (30 points on 9-for-19 shooting) and Andrew Ball (13 points on 5-for-9 shooting) did all they […]

The North Carolina Tar Heels survived a home scare against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons as the team in blue stayed undefeated in home games with their three-point win over the team from Winston Salem.

By now you already know the play in discussion. William Kyle comes barreling down the lane in Pittsburgh. Nate Kingz was wise enough to miss the three and set up his teammate. Nobody boxes out Kyle and he rebounds, cocks the ball back and flushes a put-back dunk for the ages. Just give Kyle the […]

While hardly alone, I’ll admit that I didn’t have Greg Gard’s Wisconsin Badgers rolling into Ann Arbor and wrestling a massive 91-88 victory from the host (and previously undefeated) Michigan Wolverines, but here we are. The shorthanded Wisconsin squad finally showed the promise and resilience that so many of us expected this season, stood sturdy late, and […]

It’s tough to say how to take the 87-84 win by Carolina last night. On one hand you have the fact that Carolina turned back a team that has given the Tar Heels fits since Steve Forbes started coaching at Wake Forest. They were desperate for a marquee win. The game makes Carolina 2-1 in […]
