Michael Counos and David Martin preview tonight's women's basketball game against CCSU. UMass is coming off a season opening, 55-49, victory over Boston University last Sunday.
"The Massachusetts women's basketball team will look to win its second straight game at home when it takes on Central Connecticut State on Wednesday night at the Mullins Center," writes Counos.
"More impressive, however, is how well the two maintained their team's sense of confidence and determination to win, as the Terriers came back from several double-digit deficits to pull within striking distance late in the second half," writes Martin.
Tonight's game is set to tip off at 7 p.m. at the Mullins Center.
Congratulations to head coach Sharon Dawley and the women's basketball team on the squad's season opening victory over Boston University on Sunday, 55-49 at the Mullins Center. Be sure to check out the weekly radio show tonight, which airs on WMUA, 91.1 FM at 5 p.m. and can also be heard

This past weekend, the UMass women's basketball was out and about in the community, participating in the Walk To End Alzheimer's at Holyoke Community College.

On May 15, we wish Happy Birthday to senior hockey player
Doug Kublin and women's basketball sophomore
Shakia Robinson.
"Shaq" is on the run, and the University of Massachusetts women's basketball program is on the rise under new head coach Sharon Dawley.
Disregard the 1-7 record, which includes Sunday's much-better-than-expected showing in a 93-80 defeat against unbeaten and Top 25-bound Boston College (8-0) at the Mullins Center, as there are too many positives to allow for negativity.
