Since my last update we have played four Northeast 10 league games. On February 7th, Southern New Hampshire defeated us as home in a battle that came down to the final seconds. Layer that week we headed to Umass Lowell, where we got revenge for a loss we faced against them earlier this season. On Valentine's Day we headed to Southern Connecticute to improve our overall record to 19-5.
Then last night we played Pace University at home in another tight NE-10 contest where, sadly, we came up short. Now with two regular season games left, the league is tighter than ever. We currently hold the second place seed but need to finish the season strong in order to secure our spot. This Saturday, we play St. Rose at home in hopes of reaching our 20th win of the season.
It's hard to believe that as a team we are already preparing for the postseason. it seems like just yesterday we were all arriving at school and jumping right into preseason. As a team we have shared many experiences along the way. From waking up for early morning workouts, to the countless team dinners, to all the long bus rides, the practices, and so much more. Teacm chemistry is something that every team builds over the course of a season, and it is something that will help our team get to the next level.
Across the country many teams are involved in the WBCA Pink Zone initiative. Between the dates of February 13th and February 22nd, teams designate a game to be their "Think Pink" game. This is an effort for Women's Basketball to raise breast cancer awareness on the court, across campuses and in the local college communities. Our "Think Pink" game is this Saturday against St. Rose. I encourage all of you to come out and support the WBCA efforts.
Oh, and make sure you all wear pink!
Talk to you soon,
Meg
