Game #9 - vs. Arizona

After 3 games against relatively easy opponents, Maryland faces a tougher challenge with the Arizona Wildcats coming to town. Arizona is 4-2 and went to the NCAA Tournament last year. They are also looking to avenge last year's OT loss to Maryland at their place. You may remember that this was the game where Jade banked in a jumper at the buzzer to send the game to OT.

Arizona really hasn't played anyone this season except for Utah and they lost that game. They also don't have much height and they are still reeling from the death of All-American center Shawntinice Polk earlier this year. She added an extra dimension to the team as she towered over most teams. Now we will see what they bring to the table.

The Wildcats may unveil their freshman point guard tomorrow who was just cleared by the NCAA. We have no scouting report on her so I hope the coaches are ready.

Arizona is also Brenda's alma mater.

The questions for Maryland are:
1. Will this team be ready to play decent competition for the first time since Tennessee?
2. Will everyone that dresses play or are players still resting?
