Congrats to coach Gross. Such a great achievement!

I do like the way Long Beach plays defense. Very aggressive

Ags down 36-30 at half. 13 turnovers is all you really need to know

Csun gave it a shot but lost 70-61. Ags gotta take care of business in so cal.

If you’re looking for something to watch, ucsb vs Csun is on espn plus at 7 tonight. Asking a lot for an upset but I guess you never know.

Other than the fanless version last year, this will be the first time I’ve missed the bwt in 8 years. Partly it’s the fact that for vegas we’d want to fly so it’s more expensive, and partly the desire to not really want to travel anywhere. Next year, assuming things are back to normal, we may try and double up with the big west and Pac-12. Basketball junkies heaven.

it’s been as strange a year for the women as I can remember. If you boil it down to one stat, it’s turnovers that have changed this team that only lost one key member from a BW championship team to mid BW team. Yes we haven’t shot as well and our defense hasn’t been consistent, but I think we could overcome those if we didn’t turn the ball over 15 times a game (to our opponents 11 per game). And honestly, it’s not the raw numbers of turnovers but the kind of turnovers. A lot seem to be unforced, more mental than anything. Very strange considering how veteran this team is. Maybe just the sheer pressure to achieve has been hard to deal with. But, win four games in March in Henderson nv and all is right.

Good first half. I’m continually impressed by Manjon

That was easily the most animated I’ve ever seen Gross. She is so pissed.

If you happen to be watching the game on espn plus, the guy doing color is Greg Silver who grew up in Davis, played bball for Davis high. If you are an nfl fan, his dad is Mike Silver how has worked for Sports illustrated, Yahoo sports and the nfl network.

These three are all quality teammates and have been excellent aggies. Obviously losing Fuller is a big loss on the court. Adeybayo could step back into the starting lineup if Les is looking for a better defender. Or maybe McGill steps in. I feel likes he's shown a few glimpses of what he can do on the offensive side.

Thanks for the write up. The Ags are tough to beat if we have the lead down the stretch. But we do have a tendency to forget how to shoot for extended periods of time. It should be a good one

Regarding Shaw, yeah he was injured for a long period. Not sure with what. He is dressing now but hasn’t gotten any minutes. We’ll see if that continues

Excellent news. It'll be good to have Babb back also!

I was just about to write basically the same thing. Both teams know that Thursday is a biggie so both will come out at 100%.

And by the way, young woman who performed the national anthem was outstanding. Beautiful voice and I thought I heard she’s a 16 year old senior at ucd. Just amazing

We saw that too and couldn’t figure out what csub was doing. A real big failure by the coaching staff to not have their players all on the same page. And though we shot well In this game, a free throw contest to decide it has usually not been our strength.

and we have some good recruits coming in next year. Jac Mani at 6’9” is a big inside presence but can also step out and hit the 3. Joaquin Strong is an athletic 6’7” wing that can create off the bounce and will really fit into Les’ scheme. Of course one or both might sit out a year, as Niles and Lose are doing this year.

fun game last night. Yes too many fouls and that dragged it out, but I liked the way we performed. We are so lucky to watch Manjon and Pepper play.

Looks like everyone is dressed, including Ba and Shaw

Good point. They are probably trying to limit the players exposure
