In response to bradley
Banghart sounded reasonably confident on the podcast. Apparently, if Princeton lost to Penn, the Tigers were identified as one of 8 teams for the remaining at large bids which says a lot when you start off 2-7. She is concerned about Kentucky's star player and high scorer who is only a freshmen but top 25 high school player. Banghart did counter that she has Bella.
To beat Kentucky will require that Bwlla, Littlefield and Rush play at their best and Bella dominates at certain points of the game.
She was surprised when the podcast host stated that Banghart has participated in 12 of the 27 IL appearances at the NCAAW Tournament - 2 times as an All IL player, 2 times as a Dartmouth assistant coach and 8 times in 10 years as a Princeton coach. He claimed that the only comparable baseketball run in the Ivies was the great run by the Penn men's basketball teams of the 70s'.
She is a very good coach and hopefully, Princeton retains her over time, as she is building a dynasty. I am pretty sure that she wants at least one more round with a healthy Bella in her senior year.
