Heads up. Northeastern

[meyers7]

I know we are still basking in the rout of Kutztown today. However, Northeastern (Thursday's 1st "real" game) is playing today against Boston University.

For those interested in scouting, it looks like it's gonna be on ESPN+ at 4:30 this afternoon.

Well - they got a win by one point, but that should help our SOS!

Derin Erdogan of Northeastern ( a junior guard, 5' 6") with 24 points in 35 minutes. This lady

played previously at Arizona. Gemina Motema, 5' 9", a Sophomore guard for Northeastern,
had 16 points in 27 minutes. She is from Portland, Maine. FG % was 38.19%
for NE with a 3 point % of something like 25 %. Their best rebounder was
Oralye Kiefer a 6' 3" Freshman with 8 rebounds in this game. This is the Colonial Athletic

BOSTON – Junior guard Derin Erdogan hit a pair of free throws with 1:33 left to reclaim the lead for good as the Northeastern women's basketball team (1-0) defeated cross-town rival Boston University (0-1), 66-65, to open the season on Monday. Erdogan's free throws were the final points of the game as both teams used staunch defense down the stretch to keep each other off the board. It was a stellar Husky debut for Erdogan, as she finished with a career-high 24 points, four rebounds, three assists, and three steals. The junior transfer hit six of her final seven shot attempts, including three-of-four from beyond the arc.

I might have to change my score predictions.

I expect UConn to pick up right where they left off Sunday. The only difference is Northeastern is a Division 1 low-major program. A quick check of their schedule shows that UConn is the only top-25 team on their schedule this year.

Lower level Division One teams that like to push the pace do not have a great track record against UConn. UConn is more than happy to see you for pace and then raise you for more pace. Playing into our hands. Anyone remember the Saint Francis game in the first round of the NCAAs a few years ago? 2019 I think.

Unless she is exceptionally quick I am afraid that Erdogan, at 5'6'', is in for a very long night.

I am sure Nika is licking her chops going against their engine player (who is international to boot)
