In response to Mike Porter
Thanks for the write up.
Penn is going to need to use its discipline to keep the Aggies off the free throw line, where they average about 15 points a game. They are also going to have to control Hillsman, who is averaging over 16 points a game on 63% shooting.
Their point guard, Curtyce Knox, is leading the country in assists (over 9 game). Kasey Chambers is going to have her hands full guarding Knox.
A&M are good rebounders, especially on the offensive end, but Penn is pretty strong in that department as well. While Penn understandably allowed Princeton to well on the offensive glass last Sunday, it was more troubling that they allowed Brown to get too many boards. The Quakers will have to do better than they did in the recent Ivy Tournament.
Offensively, Stip is going to have to get back to where she was before the Harvard/Dartmouth weekend. If not, Agahyre is going to need to get some points and our three point shooters are going to have to get some extra baskets.
I agree that it is good that it is a neutral game. The Quakers certainly have a good chance tonight.
The game will be a part of ESPN2's wrap-around coverage starting at 9 eastern. It can be viewed on its own at ESPN3.
