Congratulations Ladies!
Congratulations Ladies!
Awesome.
I still can't believe what a turn around this program has made.
I thought Jeanenne Colbert was suspended from the University. She played and played well.
I completely agree. We really have something to be proud of with this program. Great job Lady Cajuns!!!Originally Posted by cajunproud
Yes Colbert was suspended, but apparently just one game and not starting the second was good enough for parking ticket violations, lol. Good thing Dunlap stepped up, but now she has a hurt ankle or something. Hopefully between the two of them, we can still stay strong at the point. I'm glad Jones got her rhythm going again, we're going to need it for this last game today, and the sunbelt tourny.

Don't misunderstand. UL women's basketball coach J. Kelley Hall wants to win today's regular-season finale as much as anyone.
He's just not going to take any chances.
When the Sun Belt Conference Western Division champion Ragin' Cajuns take the Long Gym court for Senior Day at 2 p.m. against North Texas, Hall will be watching some of his walking wounded very closely.
"We've been preparing just like we do for every game and we're going to try to win," Hall said. "But the first time I see Whitney (Dunlap) or Sonora (Edwards) limp, I'm pulling them and giving them a week to rest."
Dunlap has a bad foot after an injury at Denver last week and Edwards has played on a bad ankle. Both took part in the team's final run-through practice Saturday.
The Cajuns (22-7, 13-4 Sun Belt) have that luxury, having locked up the West title Thursday with their 75-52 win at Florida International - with some help from North Texas, which knocked off second-place Arkansas State 82-66 to give UL the outright title.

Yolanda Jones, UL's leading scorer (17.6) and rebounder (10.1) has a personal goal to reach after hitting a milestone Thursday. The Lumberton, N.C., product became the 11th player in UL history to score 1,000 career points with her final basket Thursday at FIU, and only the third to do it in two seasons.
Today, she'll try to become the first Sun Belt player in over a decade to win back-to-back rebounding titles. Jones led the league with a 10.9 mark last year, and she enters today's game narrowly ahead of FIU's Lasma Jekabsone (9.9) in that individual race.
