Playing well in the first half. They went on some nice scoring streaks and some well timed 3s.

Why in the world are the SBC women’s refs wearing masks? Ridiculous! And thankfully the men’s refs aren’t.

[IndiaPaleAle]

The Sun Belt women's basketball officials assigner is requiring her officials wear masks. Those of us who officiate know the last thing you want to do is defy and/or tick off your assigner.

[RaginScotsman]

That’s the most women's bball I’ve watched I’m a long time. That was a good one. Troy seems solid.

Speaking of officials, 55 fouls seems like a lot for one game.

Of those 55 fouls, 54 of them were correct. One of Doucet’s fouls, I thought, was a clean block.

That said, they could have called several more offensive fouls on the Cajuns in the first half because of push offs committed by Wren and Rice. It was a physical game with lots of contact. All in all, the officials did a good job tonight.

Speaking of officials, 55 fouls seems like a lot for one game.

My goodness, went look at the box score. Four players fouled out for Troy, one for Cajuns and each team had 3 with 4 fouls? There’s 49 fouls right there. That had to be painful to watch, refs must of been sucking wind with their “masks”, slowed the game down.

Score isn’t surprising, Troy likes to run. They’ve broken 100 a multiple times the last couple of years.

[NewsCopy]

Paced by a trio of 20-point performers and an efficient night at the free throw line, Louisiana secured its first home win over Troy since Feb. 11, 2017, with a 92-83 victory at the CAJUNDOME on Thursday night.
