These announcers are complete and total buffoons. Called Body "The Russian" and said "Nyet" several times while laughing about it when she was called for a foul. I'm not very PC, but these turds should he a little more professional.

Would love to go on a run and get some distance between us right now. 45-42 with six minutes to go. Don't like letting La Tech stay close.....

Hopefully we survive this one......

 

[SpaceRaider]

Latech has the momentum

Anastasia has 4 fouls

 

[MTOleBlue]

No idea how Insell can keep in Whitson, Wheeler, Gregory when they have this type of performance. Whitson took 2 shots and has 2 rebounds in almost 45 minutes…

 

[Blue Raider Lightning]

Whew!!! AB and Tamia brought their A game and score 52 of our 64 points. A combined 2-19 shooting from our other starters including 10% from beyond the arc. A win is a win. I'll breathe a sigh of relief and take it. 64-61 final.

[blueboro007]

This crap about not subbing has to stop. Maybe time for CRI to do a Saban.

 

[MTFAN61]

Whew is right. Can't believe we won in a game of 2 on 5. Unless CRI was to retire If I were one of the other 6 or 7 bench players I would hit the portal at end of year. To have to set & watch 3 players who play like crap all game long without getting a chance to show my worth would be extremely frustrating.
This team could be so much better if we had more flexible & smarter coach.
