Mount Notre Dame Basketball Team Embraces Tradition While Preparing For Friday Night

... for the team. Junior forward Abby Voss scored a game-high 16 points against Mason and could very well be a key player Friday night. Senior center Maria Pisciotta (7.9 ppg.) has been the team’s solid post presence and can finish in the low post with both hands. Senior Madison Marcum (4.7 ppg.) is the other projected starting guard. The Cougars don’t generally do anything fancy but they rebound, defend and are patient offensively. Those are key ingredients for March. “They work the ball around quite well with their high-low game,” Canton Mc Kinley coach Pamela Davis said. “They can turn up the pressure if they choose to and they can play a zone that can create matchup problems.”. Canton Mc Kinley is led by sophomore 6-foot-1 guard Kierstan Bell, who averages 25 points. Bell has multiple scholarship offers from the Big Ten and Southeastern Conference programs. Rogers said Bell reminds him of Mason standout guard Sammie Puisis without the shooting range. “I don’t know if you are going to stop (Bell),” Rogers said. MND, which averages 61.5 points and allows just 40 points on average, scouted Mc Kinley’s regional final against Solon last Friday night. The Lady Pups like shooting ...

We always seem to make a timely three, but today it didn’t fall.”. Notre Dame tied the game at 34, but the Titans led 41-36 midway into the final quarter. The Eagles answered with a 12-0 run to end the game.

Bodensteiner Builds Brackets

... exchange, so I can watch any time anywhere.". With 32 conferences across the country each committee member is assigned about seven as either the primary or secondary "expert" or contact (Bodensteiner is the primary contact for three). In that role she made a couple of road trips to see games in person. She traveled to see Dayton play at St. Louis Feb. 22 in a game that was for all the regular-season marbles in the Atlantic 10 Conference. The month before, on her way from the NCAA Convention to meet the Irish women's team in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Bodensteiner rented a car and drove to see James Madison play at Elon (the top two teams in the Colonial Athletic Association). Jill Bodensteiner sits courtside at an Irish home game at Purcell Pavilion with her i Pad at the ready to keep on eye on other games. "I try to watch a lot of televised games live," she says. "For the ones I watch on tape I can fast-forward through timeouts and dead balls and get it down to about 45 minutes. So I figure I've watched maybe 75 games live and another couple of hundred after the fact on tape. It's a ...
