I am stoked about the Lady Cajuns and Coach Hall(s). We have something special going on here and we need to appreciate it!

I lost complete interest in the Sun Belt tournament being put on here in Lafayette because it was obvious last year that the men's team wouldn't be in it. I hate to say it, but it completely slipped my mind that the women's tournament would also be played here. What a great oportunity for a large crowd to witness the best women's team to ever play for UL. To go from bottom of the barrel to consistent year after year post season expections needs to be applauded. It really is amazing. If these women make it to the NCAA tournament and move past the first round, the media will bring a lot of attention to the accomplishments made by the Hall's.

I will be there because not only us but Middle Tenn. is one of the best teams not only in the conference but in the country.Originally Posted by Tripple Threat
The rap on UL's women's basketball team is that it can't shoot. But try to convince North Texas of that, after the Cajun women hit half its three-pointers and almost all of its free throws Thursday night.
UL made four of its last five three-pointers and finished up 7-of-14 outside the arc in Thursday's 85-76 win. And, a Cajun team that shot less than 58 percent from the free throw line all season made 18-of-23, including six of eight in the last 54 seconds when the game was on the line.
Yolanda Jones was responsible for much of the team's shooting, hitting 14 of her 21 shots on the way to a season-high 30 points.
"She stepped up big for us," said Cajun coach J. Kelley Hall. "She had to play 40 minutes, and she answered the call."

UL women's basketball coach J. Kelley Hall is hoping a little adversity can go a long way.
The Ragin' Cajun women were down by 12 points late in Thursday's first half at North Texas, and rallied for an almost-double-figure Sun Belt Conference win.
"That was good for us, to win one like that on the road and over a conference opponent," Hall said. "We need to do that on a regular basis."
The Cajuns (13-5, 5-2) will get that chance today, but it'll come against much better opposition, and against a Western Kentucky team that's been a genuine thorn in UL's side.

Through the Magic of the Internet... and a registration fee , I've been able to watch the North Texas Game and the Western Kentucy Game Online Live Video from each School's web site. All I can say is WoW !!! It's hard to appreciate the come back we made in the North Texas Game without watching it, and the first half on the Western Kentucy Game, has to be the best we have played as a Team all year, hitting on all cylinders. Everybody stepped up that Game, a real Team Win. Big contributions from our Bench with Players in Foul Trouble. Just a Huge Conference Win. This helps a little for letting Arkansas State slip away from us at home. Keep the MOEmentum GOING TEAM !!! Can't wait to Cheer us on Wednesday !!!
