Unless you have been hiding under a rock, you will probably have heard by now that we had a successful visit to Morgantown, WV this past weekend for our NCAA First Round match. Facing off against national power #7 West Virginia University, we headed west knowing we would have to battle hard to get a result against the two-time Big 12 Champions. Continue reading →

The regular season drew to a close this weekend and I have to be honest, I really don’t know where the time went this fall. On Friday night, we faced off against my alma mater, Seton Hall, in a must win contest as we chased a good seeding in the BIG EAST Tournament and looked to build our resume for the NCAAs.

This past weekend, we only had one game and came away with a 2-0 win over a dogged Duquesne team. This was the last of our non-conference games and we finished that slate of games with a 5-2-2 record. To be fair, it is kind of where I expected us to be right now. Our non-conference schedule was rigorous with some tough games, but also had the added challenge of playing six of those away from the confines of Shaw Field. Continue reading →

She missed the first five games of the season with an injury, but was among the most dominating players in the BIG EAST upon her return. Let’s go In the Huddle with Daphne Corboz! Continue reading →
