looking at their roster, wow, only 5 of the 15 players from mainland U.S.! i remember at least a few months ago reading an article about a school i think out in the northeast(?) that has a roster full of players from overseas. wasn't aware wsu had as many as they do.

Yes,  a little familiar with Wash St. Looked at them when we got our new AD from  Wash St. They're big, a little like a B1G team in size, but are experienced at different levels.

 

They have a couple of Australians, 3 or 4 from Europe, a Canadian ?,...seems like one from Nebraska...maybe not?  Anyway this is a big team, and lots of varied experience. Seems like so far, they're one of those teams that you're not sure which one will show up to play.  Could be from inexperience playing together...... but in any case we better be ready.

 

Tough one could be coming to town.

This will be our toughest non conference game.  Don't let their 6-5 record deceive you.  They lost close games to two rated teams.  Beat us handily last year on a neutral site.  Would be a nice win if we can get it.

 

Good luck to Matt and Jeff trying to get the cougars names pronounced right on their radio broadcast.

Wash. St. has a big win over Rutgers who is vastly improved and is sporting a 12-2 record.  Game was at a neutral site.

This game will be a real test to see how much we've progressed as a Team!  :nod:   To get a good reading though, we'll need to see everyone healthy enough to play.

 

To those in the vicinity, Let's Pack PBA and support the TEAM! :Cheer2:

hoping TK is a go-------what's it been? a month now? don't want them to rush it though----just want to see her healthy. if it's a "bruised" knee, should be coming around.

Man...you can really see the European influence in that Wash. St .team......boarders on street ball.  Rough physical play, fouling, walking with ball....not super skilled

Bet some of those girls have played lots of crash and bang ball in Europe.

 

If the refs let them get away with all  the "junk" all game long...it will be a long game for us.

Showing some life.  Cut the margin to eleven, 47 - 36.  Enjoy Matt and Jeff comments.  On the air ball by Washington State,  Matt said "missed everything but the floor".
 
And it did.
