2009-2010 LADY HOYAS!

Hoyanation and friends, the Lady Hoyas are continiving to live their dream season with a secon-half storm against the Lady Redfoxes of Marist, 2010 MAAC Women's Basketball Champions.

"I told them at halftime that if you don't come out in the first five minutes of this game and knock Marist off their feet that we were going to allow them to stay in the game," Hoyas coach Terri Williams-Flournoy said. "A team like Marist, you can't let them stay in the game and keep them close because they are a really good team."

They Lady Hoyas did! End of story. McNutt scored 14 points and Tia Magee added 11 for the Hoyas (26-6), who were making just their second trip to the NCAA tournament and first since 1993. "We've been through adversity," Magee said. "We overcome a lot, a lot of crazy situations. It was just a matter of calming down. Everybody's excited and the jitters were going stuff like that. Once we calmed down, we were fine. But the start was a little surprising, but we held it together."

Now it's on to the next one for the Hoyas. The 5th seeded Hoyas will glide with lots confidence and toughness into the 2nd of the NCAA's pound for pound against the 4th seeded Baylor Bears with a chance to move into the Sweet 16. Let's Go Hoyas! Hoya Saxa!
