Lady Griz host WSU Cougs

['68griz]

Awesome win for the LG, but not good to have lost two starters.

Absolute class act by Wazzu coach JuneD saluting the crowd at the end of the game. Good to see some real quality coaches still in the game and she got a real jam job by the UW hierarchy. Great to see her bringing the WSU program back.

Nice win, our gals put the wood to cougs from get go

Wazzu got schooled on the boards, wonder how they won ANY pac12 games with lethargic inside attempts at blocking out

Got some great young talent for future!

Go Griz

Griz men got schooled on the boards, wonder how they won ANY games with lethargic inside attempts at blocking out

Think I read this in another post...similar to Wazzu women

Washington State's first post season tournament action since 1991? That's surprising. They finish 17 - 17 having a fairly rugged schedule. They did have some good games against some ranked opponents. Winning against #10 Nebraska (at the time). As well as #24 Arizona St., #21 Colorado and #20 California just recently 07 March 14. Seems to be a young team as well. They may be even better next year IMHO

Side note--in a picture/article on page C2 (authored by "sports-information reports") in today's Seattle Times sports section there is a photo of a Lady Griz player (looks like DJ Reinhardt) diving for a loose ball along with a couple Cougs. The article/photo identifies her as "Jaley Vining" :lol: . Of course, Haley Vining sadly is injured and unable to play. You'd think the clown writer (whoever he or she is?) would verify their information first before publishing such stuff. Oh well---just another example of sloppy journalism..... :roll: And to boot nearly all of the article speaks only to WSU's performance. It says very little about Montana (granted this is a Washington paper), but you'd think they just might mention a word or two about the LG playing basically the entire game minus two season-long starters.

Here's the article and photo 71 references. Looks as though it came directly from the Wazzu SID. This is one of the problems with papers these days: they don't have even the barest resources to cover games like this, so they rely on the schools' SIDs to write them.

But I have noticed that for the Henry M. Jackson High School women's basketball team out of Mill Creek, Washington that of the their two main players this past year, one being a Kelli Kingma that averaged 15.6 ppg as being touted as a University of Washington Huskies recruit, that their other main player that averaged 15.3 ppg, a Sierra Anderson, as not all that recognised as a UofM recruit. If it wasn't for gogriz.com how would anyone know? Like it's been said, a State of Washington paper.
