Game 2: George Mason

After that nail-biting win on Friday, we hit the floor again today against local opponent George Mason. The game isn't really that important as we should beat them handily considering we won 70-33 last year and they went over 10 minutes without a bucket. Their roster shows that they have some height, but most of them played against us last season. They have three additions to the team: former Terp C'Vette Henson, Rashauna Hobbs (5'6 G) and Becky Rautzhan (6'3 C).

Last year they went 12-17. They had one player in double figures, shot under 40% from the floor and were outrebounded. The three new players should have an impact, but not enough to make this game close, I hope.

The big story about today's game is the unveiling of the championship banner, which looks like it's going opposite the men's banner on the other side. We have all waited since April for this moment and let's hope that we aren't the only fans in attendance. I heard season ticket sales are up, I just want to see us break at least 8,000.

Keys to the Game

  • Dominate the game from start to finish. There's no reason this game should be close.
  • Take care of the ball. I hope Friday was the last time all season we have 20+ turnovers in a game.
