Worst half of the year for the Stags. Nellie's two quick fouls set the pace. Hoping for a second half wake-up.

Hoping for a second half wake-up. they talk about GUS (go until stopped) but i feel like the guards are getting too deep in the lane and getting swallowed up - when they could've dished to open shooters earlier in their drives and then got Niagara scrambling to catch up. refs are also not calling many fouls, so no benefit from taking it into the swarm of arms. |

Agree. Guards have been awful fundamentally. Dribbling into traffic with heads down. Picking up the ball in bad spots on the floor. Poor passing. Just a slew of bad turnovers. Have 11 minutes to turn this around. |

So what was worse, the horrific "charge" call on Brown . . . or the pathetic attempt by the color commentator (who has been nearly openly rooting for Niagara all game) trying to rationalize it??

Another gritty Stag win. Really amazing to be down 39 minutes of this game and find a way. Team deserves this. Losing would have felt unjust.

It wasn't easy, but they earned it. Congratulations on the MAAC Championships and the NCAA bid!

Niagara took us to school for three quarters, but we came back to win. Much like our men, the women get it done in crunch time. Congratulations to the Fairfield women and lets hope that tonight there is another Fairfield celebration.

Congrats! What a ride.
One moment I want to mention from OT. Early in the season vs. Vandy... Nicole Gallagher missed an open 3P to probably win the game. Today she had a 3P in OT to put the Stags in the driver's seat... and she nailed it. Clutch.

Amazing comeback. These Lady Stags (Dynamic Does?) are an incredibly resilient group.

Congrats to coach Carly and her hardworking team! Let's hope they are rewarded with at #12 seed (or better) and avoid having to play a top 4 seed on their home court in the opening game. |

Just got home was able to watch both the men's and women's games. Tough loss for the men's team, they looked in control and on top of things the first 20 minutes. Congrats to the ladies, Niagara did what they always do defensively. We shot poorly the first half, got in foul trouble and got way too deep with some penetrations and didn't do a great job boxing out. Nellie getting the technical foul just can't happen at this level, not sure what the girl said or did, but you know they are trying to piss you off. You have to ignore it and move on. When Lamoreaux got her 2nd foul that could have been a disaster with both point guards in trouble. From a conditioning standpoint, we are in way better shape than Niagara and it showed in the 2nd half and overtime. Let's see who get matched up with and see what gameplan we can do! Congrats on an incredible season for the ladies and coaches, 31-1 is mind blowing! Will be interesting to see when the portal opens up on who is leaving FF, and who wants to come run with the Stags.
