Ref. You wondered which way to call that???!!? C'mon! And those kids are all in training to be nuns, right? Rocky, I went to Catholic school, 3rd through 12th grade. Nuns can be....formidable..

Nika really filled up the stat sheet tonight: 8 pts, 7 rbs, 9 asts, 6 sts, only 2 fouls and 2 TOs. really, really good. and she should have had at least 3 more assists! What major improvement from a few games ago.

What major improvement from a few games ago. Better every game. Only the sky as the limit. Loved what Geno was saying after the game. Paige makes them believe their shots will be going in. She makes a pretty good target for a pass, too.

Christyn is a better ballplayer because of Paige. Yeah, watch and learn. She makes everyone better. Nika is pretty good as well with her defense, her assists, the steals and her attitude.

These refs are terrible. Where'd they come from, the SEC? Roller Derby lent them to Marquette for the game!!

My only contact with Nuns was too many years in Vacation Bible School. I would rather train to be a Navy Seal. Up to and including now. Paige is on her way to being the Player of the Year. For the entire country. I'm starting to wonder what the ceiling for Nika is? She really did stuff the stat sheet. Who knows how much that foot injury set her back, by at least 3-4 weeks I bet. S Car will be a huge test but no matter what happens the core of the next great Husky team is growing up before our eyes. Paige may have to stay 5 years to win 4 titles but I think with another month of play we have better than a punchers chance to win this year. Liv has to come through though. Can't wait for her and Boston to square off. If she can hold her own, heck, if she can avoid getting wiped out, that will be great.

Can we just say it right now...Paige Bueckers will be the BE Freshman of the Week next week. What happens if they decide she's the best player in the Big East this last week? If she awarded both Big East player of the week in Big East freshman of the week? Does she get player of the week and they pick the next best freshman as freshman of the week? Does she get freshman of the week and the second best overall player gets player of the week? I'm sure this is come up before but I honestly don't recall how they handle it.

That is a good point, Phil. I don't know how it would be handled. My guess, and purely a guess, is that if Paige gets player of the week then freshman of the week would go to the second best freshman. Could Nika or Aaliyah be in the running?
