No shame in this road loss. Women are outplaying the men for the first time in many years
It hasn't happened often, but it did happen fairly recently. In 2015-16, the women went 17-1 in PL play, losing only to 17-1 Army, and they went 25-8 overall. The men went 14-4 and 17-14 that year. Women ranked #141 (Massey) while the men were #212. Women that year also won an NIT game behind two of the best players they've ever had, Claire DeBoer and Jacquie Klotz. The men were upset in the first round of the PL tournament.
Prior to that year, the last time the women were better was 2008-09 when they were pretty good and the men had their worst year in decades.
