Towson finished 17-14 overall and 10-8 in Coastal Athletic Association play last season. The Tigers were picked fifth in the league’s preseason coaches’ poll.

Senior guards Zoli Khalil and Thalia Shepard return after averaging 9.4 and 9.3 points per game, respectively, last season.Towson added FDU transfer Ava Renninger, a first-team All-NEC selection and 2026.

I could see the hawks coming out a bit flat after the game Thursday night, game is close for the first quarter or so and then Iowa pulls away to a 92-67 victory

Should be an opportunity to experiment with different line-up groupings.

Also, there was some indication that Jensen would employ press defenses this season. Full court, 3/4 court, half court traps …. whatever, let’s see it. With a legit 9 player rotation, it seems to me that coach can be more aggressive with less concern for potential foul trouble.

Wondering how they handle the implementation of the press, Do they work on it live in the next two games or hold it back for UConn.

#10 Iowa (0-0, 0-0 #10) vs #207 Towson (0-0, 0-0 #NR)

> VSS ranks Towson defense at D+. Mind you this is most likely taking heavily weighted history into account this early in the season with nothing else to go on.
>Towson is a shorter team. Think the tallest starter is 6'1". Have one bench player at 6'2" and one at 6'3".
> Not putting in a lot of time into this on most likely a total blowout game and not a lot of info to go on.
> I'm seeing an easy win #1.

One thing I think is noticeable with Layla is while she is never going to be fleet of foot she is much more fluid in her movement this year vs how she was very robotic last year.

I enjoyed watching Faison's good defensive stance. Arms extended. Good length. Good to see Ava playing well.

Shaky start for Iowa. 5-14 from the field missing a bunch of wide open shots. Six turnovers already!

3 defenders around Ava means 2 open shooters. She needs to make better decisions

Big+ either freezes and logs itself out or has the network logo on a black screen. Excellent stuff
