Caught a few glimpses of Morgan in the clips from training camp that the Sun are posting on their twitter feed. :up:

Results or scores wrong for softball?

Gosh!

I think it sat at the edge of the bike racks, pre-ARC, at the border between the Rec Hall hardscaping and the big grass fields that used to be there. My memory's about as fuzzy as the 1998 aerial photo, though. :rofl:

Yeah, the new plastic seats fold inward from the walls. I think they may still have the ability to freestand them like the old wooden bleachers and separate the upstairs courts from the walkway, but I've only seen them pushed back against the wall for basketball games.

Anyone know what those double sets of doors are for?

edit: pulled up google Earth and took a look--they appear to be fire exits out onto the exterior berms of the building.

They've got that on three sides, FWIW.

Nope. We've been settling for one of the restaurants/bar downtown with a selection of teevs and food (Mr. Froggy's, Woodstocks, Uncle Vitos, etc) or Lamppost Pizza out in west Davis.

It's a multiuse facility and spends most of the time being used for things other than sports events. I'm pretty ok with the decisions they've made so far. Particularly since I'm not the one paying for them. :)

The ending of the Stanford/SC game. Wow.

Following up on the Stanford score: they whomped MO St. The only reason the score looks kinda close is because Stanford let the Bears score in the fourth quarter.

No, she played as a true freshman, iirc.

Grey was on the trip to SA, still in a brace.

The floor time that the freshman guards got through this year will be invaluable going forward, for sure.

And yeah, I've mentioned to OBA once or twice that it almost seems better for the one-bid conference teams to lose their conference tourneys and go play in the WNIT--chance of some good competition, possibility of a home game or two, etc.

The OOC schedule is important, and Davis didn't really have one this year.

Davis is kind of where they were in the early-/mid-90s, I think, in growth. Consistently winning in conference, and then incrementally getting further and further in the tourney. There were a lot of years that ended with a frustrating early exit at the hands of Riverside or Portland St.--eventually the team got the skill and depth necessary to overcome those obstacles and made that great run in '97 to the Elite 8.

Good effort and bright days ahead for the program.

Shots aren't falling, so players are pressing.

Kinda sucked that Sage forced a horrible shot and MO St. got the rebound and scored anyway.

Sage "she looks slow" Stobbart with four blocks already.
