I disagree that this was a bad loss.  Green Bay is so good on defense that there is pressure to execute even on otherwise easy or routine shots.  A bad loss would have been quitting and rolling over when we fell behind by a dozen in the first half.  We certainly did not do that.  Yes, we should have won this game, and the missed opportunities will haunt the players forever.  But they played very hard and I was proud of them.

We will probably make the WNIT.  Don't know if we will get a home game.  Personally, I would prefer the WBI where I know that we could win the whole thing.
I agree, it is very unfortunate for the seniors to bow out that way, but they played hard and game themselves a chance to win.  That's all you an ask.  This was a very nice team, very smart, very well coached and played HARD.  Something for Youngstown to be proud of, not lament.

That's a LONG layoff for a basketball team.  Either we are going to be fresh and healthy and give the Bearcats all they want, or stale.  We'll see in a couple.
Good luck ladies!
