Anyways, tonight is also senior night for the Bulls, honoring Courtney Hunt, Tristen Webb, Sharon Cambridge, Ezria Parsons, team manager Melissa Barber and fellow team manager Andy Christensen, who also helped with the scout team by playing against the women in practice.
Nice scene, nice gesture by the coaches to frame up the players jerseys as well.
— These last two games for the women are pretty important. SID Mike Hogan informed the beat writer Charles Gonzalez and I, that if the Bulls win out the regular season tonight and Tuesday at Georgetown, as well as the first round of the Big East Tournament, they should make the NCAA Tournament. I looked it up, and USF’s RPI is up to 29 and with the 10-15 Hoyas on for Tuesday, making the tournament looks pretty solid for the women. Whether its luck or shear determination of the team’s part, making the tournament is a godsend after dropping both games to Pittsburgh, losing four of five games at one point and losing to LSU and UNC by a combined 67 points.
However, if the women do win out the rest of the season, they will clinch the No. 7 seed in the Big East tournament, playing the No. 10 seed on March 4.
So with the men just extending the nation’s longest losing streak, at least the women’s basketball team will continue playing later into March.
— Tony just arrived and he’ll be doing the rest of the live blogging tonight. The Bulls are all tied up at 13 with WVU with 13 minutes left in the first half. Be nice and superstitious with that one.
