If it was just one game, I would not be concerned but it is three in a row. And that after a fine effort in the outing against Toledo. I too sense a backward movement. Katie not having a good game did not help. And MTSU played the way I would like to see us playing and are a fine team. But no excuses, we were up at half and had it in hand a good bit of the second half and let it get away. At times they looked more confused and less confident than earlier in the year. How many times did they let the clock run down and take a desperation shot. I like Alexis! I still think this is a talented team that is under-achieving at the moment and will need to step it up to make something of this season. -- Xavier Women's Basketball Message Board

In reply to: HomerCecil 's message, "I agree...Last weekend must have been pretty bad, too...But MTSU is actually a good team - UC only beat them by two. No one seems to know what to do on offense except Amy Waugh, and you can't expect her to keep nailing threes night after night...let me say this though - Alexis Henderson may end up being one of the best players that has ever played at Xavier before she's done." on 20:45:39 12/23/01 Sun
