Jeanenne Colbert wasn't cleared to play for UL's women's basketball team until late Wednesday evening, after a doctor looked at her fractured finger. Thursday, she single-handedly put the Ragin' Cajuns back into the Sun Belt Conference race. The senior point guard turned scorer both early and late, and her nine points in the final three minutes helped the Cajuns hang on for a 65-61 victory over Arkansas-Little Rock at Long Gym. Colbert's three-pointer with 2:39 left gave the Cajuns (10-4, 2-1 Sun Belt) a 56-55 lead and started a streak during which she scored all nine UL points. The last of those came when she stripped standout UALR freshman guard Kim Sitzmann near midcourt and drove for a layup with 59 seconds left for a 62-56 lead.

Just wanted everybody (CAJUN DIE-HARDS) to know, Colbert is playing with a fractured wrist, on her shooting hand (SHE'S A WARRIOR). Is not allowed to practice, just play in the games. WHAT A DIFFERENCE SHE MAKES. Just so everybody out there knew what was going on. NOW IT'S ON TO MONROE.

MONROE - It's been more than 14 years since UL's women's basketball squad squared off with in-state rival UL Monroe. It's been even longer since the teams played in North Louisiana. At that time, ULM were the Indians, was a regional women's power and wasn't in the Sun Belt Conference. All that has changed heading into today's 4:30 p.m. contest with the Ragin' Cajuns. ULM isn't any slouch, having won 10 of 13 games this season, but the newly monikered Warhawks have found the going more tough in the early part of their first trip through the Sun Belt. ULM lost at home to Arkansas-Little Rock 66-58 in double overtime Dec. 13 and then was pounded 103-59 at Middle Tennessee. Those are the memories the Warhawks (10-3, 0-2 Sun Belt) take into today's first meeting with UL since the 1992-93 season. "They're still a very good basketball team," said UL coach J. Kelley Hall. "You don't start out 10-1 unless you are. They're going to press us from end line to end line, and we've got to be able to handle the pressure of another difficult game."

The Western Division of the Sun Belt Conference's women's basketball race may well come down to a battle of attrition. The two remaining unbeatens in the West have only played three total league games, thanks to some weather- induced cancellations. Those games will have to be squeezed into what is already a tight league schedule. Preseason West favorite Arkansas State is 2-0, but neither win has been overly impressive - an overtime win at UL's Long Gym in which the Cajuns led the entire game, and a 12-point home victory over winless New Orleans. The Ragin' Cajuns are 2-2 and have already faced two of the league leaders. Arkansas-Little Rock is 3-1 with its only loss at UL, a loss it can't make up since the teams don't play in Little Rock this year. It's one of the quirks in the unbalanced schedule. "It's going to be like this all the way through," said Cajun coach J. Kelley Hall of the West race. "What you have to do to win a championship is to win your home games and try to break even on the road. "This year, it's going to be really tough for anyone in the West to run the table at home since there's so many evenly-balanced teams. It's going to come down to who gets hot at the right time."
