Maryland has had a stranglehold on the big ten ever since they joined, but already have 3 conference losses (one a blowout to Michigan in college park). If there was ever a year for Michigan to break through and win its first big ten title in women's basketball, this is it. The team has it all going right now.

I’ll keep pumping my promo for women’s hoops — they are the best value in Michigan sports.  It only costs $50 for a season ticket to watch our top ten team, and you get free parking very close to the entrance at Crisler!

cosign.  my years as a season-ticket holder coincide exactly with the career of one naz hillmon, and while i'm sure part of my enjoyment has something to do with the fact that i've gotten to watch NMFH, the value has been spectacular.  $100 for two season tickets, halfway up the lower bowl, free parking, watching great hoops.

if you don't want to spring for season tickets, just go to one.  you'll be glad you did.

four home games left, all of them huge:

  • 1/31 vs #6 indiana (for first place, potentially)
  • 2/6 vs #23 iowa (caitlin clark is a spectular scorer, and the iowa women are every bit the no-defense outfit as the iowa men)
  • 2/20 vs #17 maryland (maryland has had a stranglehold on the conference since joining - struggling recently but super-talented and tough)
  • 2/24 vs sparty (senior night for the best class in program history)

GO.
