VCU was picked as the preseason favorite in the Atlantic 10 conference. They return 3 starters and 2 were placed on the preseason all conference team:

As Fanatic posted last night, VCU and SFA both lost to ASU and both beat St. Mary's. Should be pretty evenly matched, especially if our three preseason all conference members are "on". The past 2 games, they have been "off" or got in the game late. If our ladies are all plugged in, this should be a fun one!

Hopefully, the Live feed won't quit working in the 3rd like last night :/

Also appear to have a short bench. In each of their two games, they had four girls with 30+ minutes. Their leading scorer from the SMC game with 22 points in 35 minutes, didn't play yesterday against ASU. Without her yesterday, they turned it over 23 times, and shot just over 21% from the field, including 1-13 in the fourth quarter. I think our defense gives them fits, and wears them down.

Thanks for the info!

Zya is on FIRE tho!

66.7% FG., 62.5% 3's, 70.0% FT's. I'm trying hard to come up with something to complain about, but I can't think of anything.

Might try VCUs feed during 2nd half as it is center court:

Visscher contributes when she isn't scoring. Two steals, three assists, two rebounds.

From reading some VCU comments, they are down a couple players

One would be their leading scorer from the SMC game.

IDK. The current view is getting me acclimated to my new relocated bird's nest seats in WRJ.

VCU view is MUCH better!

Yes, it is. Thanks for the heads up. I can actually see the players' numbers without using an electron microscope.
