Rough night for the UNT women

It was obvious from the beginning that UNT coach Peterson did not feel Keke was a legitimate threat from outside. Even after she buried her 9th trey he STILL did not have anyone come out to guard her. It is okay to believe in your plan but once a player has scored 30 you might want to think about putting a hand in her face...which they finally did. Keke left the game with about 6 minutes left or she could have had more. I think Insell wanted to send a message across the bow of CUSA with this win. Just wish he would have kept the starters in long enought to get 90 and wings.
