Watched the first half. VB was her usual solid self. FY Daley was a spark off the bench. Might be the best FY. Walsh was OK, Brown struggled.
NU doesn't shoot well from outside, don't rebound well, could be a difficult year in the B1G. Will miss that special player Pull-up Pulliam.
Great player. And she does it all within Coach Joe's system. Quietest 22 points tonight you will ever see. Never forces it.
I think they’ll have some growing pains this year…especially with 3 frosh playing so much. Hoping Anna Morris is back soon…need her length up front.
I suppose some might consider it no big deal, but I agree that as we have a basketball board -- why on earth is WBKB considered an "Other Sport?"
It's the same game for both genders. Posting women's hoops news to this board seems patronizing, as if it is a lesser activity. That's not what NU wants to represent.
I know the OP is not a sexist about women's sports as he is a star poster on VB, WLAX, FHKY and so forth. It's always great to see those women's sports covered here, so it's just peculiar to insist that women's hoops is evidently not considered "real" basketball.

Still breaking in two first year starters; and still without Anna Morris, yes? Future is bright. Look for recent signee, Caroline Lau, to be the heir apparent to VB at PG.
Beat South Dakota. USD is pretty good, Beat Drake and only lost to Oklahoma by 2.
Cailegih Walsh led Northwestern in scoring with 20 points. Veronica Burton had 19 points, 8 Rebounds, and 7 assists for Northwestern.
Cats take on Pitt next. Game is at 6:46pm.
Melannie Daley is for real. Reminds me of Scottie Lindsey. She will be the best of the first years.
Three exciting frosh. Next year’s class looks strong too. Excited to see the point guard from NYC (Lau?) as the heir apparent to VB.
This has been driving me nuts all year. On the other hand, NU started 3 freshmen against Iowa and Daley has a breakout game, which leads me to believe that the 'Cats will continue to improve throughout the season. Must keep Burton healthy so she can continue to take over games like she did last night.
The future is bright. Looking forward to watching Caroline Lau, the heir apparent to VB, run the point in Evanston. I could watch Caroline Lau highlights all day.

Right? Love her handle. She played with Caileigh Walsh on that NYC Exodus travel team.
Here you go pal. That Trumpy name should sound familiar (yes, it’s his cousin).
Thanks Coral. all three sound terrific and will probably contribute. A backcourt consisting of a Daley, Brown and Lau rotation will be very strong, epecially considering that Walsh and the incoming Australian can also make the three.
Trumpy at 6’4” might be a bit more of a project, but boy, you gotta like that height!
Interesting that Trumpy's parents both played college basketball and that she was an all-state and state champion volleyball player in Pa. Camp Hill is a very nice area near Harrisburg. At one time I a had a very significant Medical Malpractice Insurance client there, so I got down there quite a bit.
