Message: [QUOTE="azfan, post: 4233504, member: 7748"] NAU faces off against Northern Colorado at 5:30 Mountain Standard Time this evening in the first semi-final game in the Big Sky. Last night after a very slow first quarter the Jacks offense really clicked against the number one defensive team in the big sky. NAU scored five over their season average while the Last Grizz scored three under theirs. Northern Colorado in a jaw dropping upset pounded the number one seed in the postseason tourney Idaho State. During the regular season Northern Colorado outscored NAU from beyond the three-point line. Both games were decided by rebounding in the first game of the series back in January at NAU Northern Colorado pounded in NAU on the boards. In the rematch at Northern Colorado in February NAU returned the favor and destroyed Northern Colorado on the boards particularly offensively with a 13-3 advantage. I'm sure Coach Payne will have the team prepared and whoever controls the commanding heights moves on to the finals with an opportunity to dance. Trying to keep my expectations in check as the winner of this game will most likely have to get by Montana State. Last night's game was radio broadcast by the voice of NAU Lumberjack Athletics Mitch Strohman. Mitch is in his 18th year at NAU and is a very vocal enthusiastic announcer with a deep knowledge of Big Sky Athletics. Clearly he has less experience with the women's team but called a really good game. In some ways he reminds me of the guy who calls the Nebraska women's basketball games. [/QUOTE]
