"At a glance (Southern Utah): The Thunderbirds (7-22, 4-16 BSC) closed the regular season winning just one of their final 10 games, but that came on March 2 against the same Montana team SUU will be facing on Monday evening.

After snapping a seven-game losing streak -- the team's first win since January -- against the Lady Griz, Southern Utah followed with a 70-55 home loss to Montana State, then wrapped up the regular season with an 88-71 loss at Northern Colorado on Thursday.

The first meeting (Montana 79, Southern Utah 57 -- Dec. 31 at Missoula): The Lady Griz trailed 23-19 after the first quarter but controlled the game the rest of the way, shooting 50 percent and out-rebounding the Thunderbirds 50-31.

Emma Stockholm scored a career-high 20 points, while Jace Henderson and Gabi Harrington both had 15-point, 11-rebound double-doubles.

Playing without Rebecca Cardenas (concussion), Southern Utah shot 33.8 percent. Harley Hansen led the Thunderbirds with 12 points.

The second meeting (Southern Utah 71, Montana 56 -- March 2 at Cedar City): The Lady Griz got out to a 12-5 lead, but the Thunderbirds closed the first quarter on a 10-0 run and never trailed after that.
Montana shot 33.8 percent, 2 of 13 from the arc. Southern Utah went 10 of 22 from 3-point range and committed just 11 turnovers."

While the LG loss to So. Utah a bit over a week ago was very bad loss, it doesn't look like So. Utah is very good and they had been on a total down slope before that win. Looks like they shot the lights out from 3.

Hopefully, the nice LG wins last weekend, can at least get them through So. Utah. I thought the LG looked pretty good in almost all of the home games that I attended. They don't have depth and are missing some good players, but the LG don't lack talent, even at this point.

Agreed. The last 2 home games were as focused and together I've seen them on both offense and defense for the majority of the game. Hopefully that carries through a couple games in the tournament. Go Lady Griz!
