Rarely has the Wahine scored 80 or 90 in a conference match, mainly because of the type of recruiting we were getting. Plus too, it’s hard to score 80 or 90 in a game unless if the team starts out hot in terms of shooting, and that’s not including hitting 3s at a good pace. Don’t get me wrong, I liked how Coach B’s team did just that in their win against UC Irvine, but at the same token, you don’t want to experience a big letdown the next game after they score that high in the previous one. That’s been quite a trend under Coach B. When her teams score really high, there usually seems to be a trend with scoring that drops after that, which either results in wins or losses.

Consistency should be the main key down the stretch after LBSU because they will be facing a trek against UCSB and Cal Poly on the road, two teams that they have yet to face halfway into conference play. If you’re Coach B, you cannot take things for granted, especially because UCSB does have some solid talent, despite being in a tie for 5th, and Cal Poly has two of the top three individual scorers in the Big West in Sierra Campisano (16.2 ppg) and Abbey Ellis (15.9 ppg). If wondering who’s the top, it’s CSF’s Raina Perez with 20.9 ppg. But yet, when you look at this, you wonder how those two teams with those players are at the bottom half of the conference. Shows that the Big West is becoming too predictable.

But yeah, if Coach B is going to get a winning record going, it should start with taking advantage of the final 8 conference games and jock for a spot at the top. I don’t care if they get either one bye or double bye, but all I can care about is if they can make a giant run towards the end, just like last year. Let’s get this finished!
