ABOUT THE HALL OF FAME CHALLENGE
The Basketball Hall of Fame Women's Challenge is a new in-season exempt tournament hosted by the Hall of Fame and the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. Eight schools will participate in this annual showcase event for women's basketball. All event proceeds will benefit the non-profit Hall of Fame's educational and operational fund.
In addition to the three-day round-robin format in Columbus, this weekend's portion of the Hall of Fame Challenge includes action at Storrs, Conn., as well. The University of Connecticut is hosting Boston University, Monmouth University and Saint Bonaventure University in a similar format. Then, next Sunday (Dec. 1), all eight schools converge upon the MassMutual Center in Springfield, Mass., for a quadrupleheader. That day's action begins with BGSU facing Monmouth in a 10:00 a.m. tipoff.
BGSU-MARIST IN A NUTSHELL
• The Falcons are 4-0 on the young season. BGSU picked up a pair of wins at the Iona Tip-Off Tournament to open the year, defeating Michigan, 63-52 (Nov. 8), and topping host Iona by a 51-50 final the following afternoon (Nov. 9). On Friday night (Nov. 15), BGSU began the home portion of the schedule with a 90-58 win over Niagara at the Stroh Center. Then, the Brown and Orange headed to Indianapolis and came away with 61-57 win at Butler on Monday (Nov. 18).
• Marist is 0-3 on the year, having lost at home to Kentucky and on the road against Albany and Princeton. The Red Foxes have been one of the most successful mid-major programs in the nation since Brian Giorgis arrived over a decade ago, as Marist has won 10 consecutive MAAC regular-season championships and eight-straight league tournament titles.
• Marist holds a 1-0 lead in the series between the teams, with a 70-65 win in the lone prior meeting, in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., four years ago (Nov. 21, 2009).
BGSU-MARIST A MASSIVE MID-MAJOR MATCHUP
Friday's BGSU-Marist game features two of the top mid-major programs in the nation over the last decade-plus. That's a bold statement – want some numbers and/or random stats to back that up? Here you go...
• Curt Miller took over as BGSU head coach in 2001-02, and Jennifer Roos was his first hire. The Falcons had an overall record of 21-35 over the next two years. Meanwhile, in New York, Brian Giorgis assumed the helm at Marist in 2002-03, and the Red Foxes went 13-16 overall. Both programs, however, were laying the foundation for success the likes of which the MA(A)C had never seen.
• In 2003-04, Miller, Roos and the Falcons were picked to finish last in the MAC's West Division, but instead finished just a game out of first. BGSU won 21 games and advanced all the way to the championship game of the MAC Tournament. Marist won 20 games that winter, sharing the MAAC regular-season title and capturing the league tourney to advance to the NCAA Championships.
• For both teams, that 2003-04 season began a streak of 10 consecutive 20-win seasons that remains active. Marist has won over 30 games twice in that span, while the Falcons have surpassed the 30-win plateau once.
• Both teams made history in 2006-07, as the Falcons and Red Foxes each won a pair of NCAA Tournament games to advance to the 'Sweet Sixteen'. BGSU won a MAC-record 31 games that season.
• Both BGSU and Marist can be found on the NCAA's list of winningest teams over the last five years. MC has the eighth-highest winning percentage in the nation during that time (82.1%), while the Falcons are 10th on that list (79.0%). The Red Foxes have won a total of 138 games in that five-year span, the ninth-highest total in the nation, while BG won 132 games from 2008-09 through '12-13, ranking 12th. The complete lists can be found on page 10 of the PDF version of these notes.
LAST TIME OUT: BGSU BATTLES BACK, BEATS BUTLER
• The Falcons forged a second-half comeback, then held off a late surge by host Butler, en route to a 61-57 win Monday night (Nov. 18) in Indianapolis. Redshirt sophomore Erica Donovan scored what proved to be the winning bucket with 27.8 seconds left, then blocked a BU three-point attempt in the final seconds to help secure the win.
• Senior Alexis Rogers scored a game-high 17 points, while sophomore Miriam Justinger had 13. The duo combined for 21 of their 30 points in the second half as BGSU erased a five-point halftime deficit.
• The Falcons never led in that first half, and BGSU fell behind by as many as 11 points late in the period. The Brown and Orange roared back, however, taking the lead with just under 16 minutes left in the game and opening up a 10-point advantage less than three minutes later.
• The hosts, however, battled back to tie the contest in the final minute, before Justinger drove the left baseline and found Donovan for the winning basket.
• That hoop came after Butler, trailing by a 57-48 count after senior Jillian Halfhill's free throws out of the final media timeout, had made a 9-0 run to tie the score.
• After Donovan's basket, the Bulldogs' Haley Howard missed a shot, but the ball went out of bounds to Butler with 8.9 seconds left. Several inbounds passes later, Mandy McDivitt attempted a three-pointer, but Donovan blocked the shot. Justinger grabbed the ball out of the air and was fouled by Howard with just 0.6 seconds left. The sophomore hit two free throws to provide the final margin.
• BGSU held advantages of 20-12 in points off turnovers and 17-10 in second-chance points. Butler held a 37-34 advantage on the glass, but the Falcons outrebounded the Bulldogs by a 20-12 count in the second half.
#MA(A)CTION
The Falcons' game vs. Marist will be BG's third contest vs. a team from the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in a four-game span. In fact, the Falcons are scheduled to play a total of four MAAC teams in the first month of the season. The Falcons have defeated Iona and Niagara, and in addition to Marist, the Brown and Orange will face Monmouth as part of the Basketball Hall of Fame Challenge.
FALCONS SIGN FOUR
Head coach Jennifer Roos has announced the signing of four student-athletes to National Letters of Intent. Sarah Baer (Perrysburg, Ohio/Perrysburg H.S.), Rachel Myers (Findlay, Ohio/Liberty-Benton H.S.), Haley Puk (Waterloo, Iowa/Waterloo West H.S.) and Lauren Webb (Vernon Hills, Ill./Vernon Hills H.S.) will join the Falcons for the 2014-15 academic year.
QUICK HITS
• BGSU is off to a 4-0 start for the first time in six years, since the 2007-08 club won the first six games of the season.
• A total of 10 Falcons have seen action in at least one game this season. Seven of those 10 players have scored in double digits at least once.
• One of those seven, sophomore Miriam Justinger, tied her career bests in both scoring and rebounding in the Falcons' win at Butler Monday night. Justinger had 13 points and six boards vs. the Bulldogs.
• BGSU has never faced Old Dominion in women's basketball. The last meeting for the Falcons against both Marist and Ohio State came in November of 2009. BG played both teams on the road in the Preseason WNIT that season, losing to the Buckeyes by a 91-72 count in Columbus (Nov. 15, 2009) before falling at Marist by five points six days later.
• The Falcons received five votes in this week's USA Today Sports Top 25 women's basketball coaches poll. Meanwhile, Sunday's opponent, Ohio State, garnered six votes in the latest Associated Press poll.
• After shooting just 51.4 percent (18-of-35) from the free-throw line in the first two games of the season, the Falcons shot 76.1% in the last two contests. BG went 30-of-41 (73.2%) from the stripe in Friday's win over Niagara, and 18-of-22 (81.8%) in the victory at Butler Monday night.
• The Falcons scored 90 points in the Niagara game (Nov. 15), reaching that total for the first time in over a year. The Brown and Orange last hit the 90-point plateau on Feb. 28, 2012, in a 91-48 road win vs. Kent State.
• Multiple Falcons set career scoring standards in that Niagara match. Redshirt sophomore Erica Donovan had a career-high 20 points vs. the Purple Eagles. The North Carolina State University transfer reached double digits for the seventh time in her career, and the second time in her first three games as a Falcon.
• Junior Deborah Hoekstra set a career best with 15 points vs. Niagara, while freshman Rachel Konieczki had 11 points for a new career standard.
• Senior Jill Stein tied her career high with 11 rebounds vs. NU. She had two double-digit rebounding games in her first three years with the Falcons, but had double-figure totals in that category in two of this year's first three games. Stein added nine boards at Butler, and now is averaging 10.0 rebounds per game.
ABOUT THE FALCONS
• The Falcons enter the Marist game with a record of 4-0 on the young season. BGSU is undefeated after four games for the sixth time in school history.
• BGSU posted wins over Michigan and the host school at the Iona Tip-Off Tournament in New Rochelle, N.Y. (Nov. 8-9), then opened the home schedule with a 90-58 victory over Niagara at the Stroh Center Friday night (Nov. 15). The Falcons came from behind to defeat host Butler, 61-57, on Monday (Nov. 18).
• Through four games, redshirt sophomore Erica Donovan leads the team in scoring, with 12.5 points per game. Seniors Jillian Halfhill and Alexis Rogers are right behind, with 11.8 and 11.3 ppg, respectively.
• Donovan is third on the Falcons wth 5.0 rebounds per game, and she is shooting a BG-best 57.6 percent from the field. Rogers has 8.3 rpg to rank second on the team in that category, while Halfhill has 3.3 rpg and 3.5 assists per game, tying for the BG lead in helpers.
• Sophomore Miriam Justinger has 8.8 ppg and 3.8 rpg this year to date, and has 3.5 apg to tie Halfhill for the BG lead. Justinger's total of 1.8 steals per game ranks her second on the Falcons.
• Three Falcons are averaging between five and six points per game. That list includes junior Jasmine Matthews (6.0 ppg), senior Jill Stein (5.3 ppg) and junior Deborah Hoekstra (5.0 ppg). Stein leads the Falcons with 10.0 rebounds per outing, while Matthews has hit a total of six three-point field goals, tying her with Halfhill for the team lead.
• Freshmen Rachel Konieczki and Abby Siefker are averaging 3.8 and 2.0 ppg, respectively, to date, while classmate Kennedy Kirkpatrick has seen action in two games off the bench.
• Head coach Jennifer Roos and her staff welcomed back seven letterwinners from a year ago, and the program also has added seven newcomers – five to the roster and two to the coaching staff.
• The returnees include three starters from last season in Halfhill, Justinger and Rogers, along with Hoekstra, Matthews, Stein and senior Katrina Salinas. Salinas suffered an injury in practice prior to the team's trip to Iona, and is expected to miss the entire 2013-14 season.
• The Falcons' newcomers to the floor include Donovan – who practiced with the team in 2012-13, sitting out the year as a transfer from North Carolina State – as well as four freshmen. That group includes Kirkpatrick, Konieczki, Siefker and Leah Bolton. Bolton, currently sidelined due to injury, has yet to see action for the Brown and Orange.
• On the bench, Roos has a pair of first-year assistant coaches in Jacey Brooks and Sahar Nusseibeh. Brooks came to BGSU after spending the last three seasons at Canisius. She also spent three seasons on the staff at Saint Bonaventure.
• Nusseibeh, a Northeast Ohio native, coached at Holy Cross for the last two years, and was a graduate assistant at Cincinnati prior to that time. Nusseibeh attended Hoover H.S. in glorious North Canton, Ohio, playing basketball for the storied Vikings program.
• Brooks and Nusseibeh join the wily veteran, Jesse Fleming, on the BG women's hoops staff. Fleming is in his second year with the Falcons after spending the 2011-12 campaign at Stony Brook and the previous six years at Saint Bonaventure. Monique Rosati returns for her seventh season as the program's director of operations.
• Through four games, the Falcons are shooting 41.5 percent from the field, 28.8% from three-point range and 67.3% from the foul line. Opponents are shooting 37.6% from the field, 27.5% from the arc and 76.9% from the stripe. The Falcons have a rebounding margin of +9.0 and a turnover margin of +1.0 on the year.
LEAD, FOLLOW OR GET OUT OF THE WAY
In the first three games of the season, the Falcons trailed for a total of just 5:53. But, against Butler, BG was behind for more than half the game. The Brown and Orange never led in the first half, but after Deborah Hoekstra's layup at the 15:53 mark of the second half, BG never trailed again (the game was tied for roughly 15 seconds in the last minute of play). Over the first four games, BG has led for a total of 122:51 and trailed for 28:14. The Falcons and the opponents have been tied for a total of 8:55.
TAKE SOME, THEY'RE FREE
• The Falcons struggled at the free-throw line in the first two games of the season, but BG got to the line often, and hit a great many shots, vs. Niagara. The Brown and Orange went 30-of-41 from the stripe, for a 73.2% success rate.
• The Falcons' FTM and FTA totals were the team's highest in over a year, since BG was 34-of-41 from the line vs. Miami on Feb. 25, 2012.
• Then, at Butler, BG shot 81.8% from the free-throw line. The Falcons went 18-of-22 from the stripe on the night, and BG is now shooting 76.2% (48-of-63) from the foul line over the last two games.
TOP 12 IN THE LAST FIVE
The NCAA has compiled its annual lists of the winningest Division-I teams over the last five years, and Bowling Green ranks in the top 12 on both lists. BGSU has won a total of 132 games during that span (from the start of the 2008-09 season through the end of 2012-13), and the Falcons have won 79 percent of the time over the last five seasons. During that time, the Falcons' winning percentage is the 10th-highest among all NCAA Division-I programs, and the team's win total is the 12th-best in the nation. It's also worth noting that the last five years do not include the Falcons' 31 wins en route to the NCAA Championships Round of 16, which came seven years ago, in 2006-07.
DEFENSE!
• During her time as an assistant coach at BGSU, Jennifer Roos served as the team's defensive coordinator. The team enjoyed great success at the defensive end of the floor, and that success continued in her first season as head coach. In 2012-13, Roos and assistant coach Jesse Fleming helped the Falcons set a school record for fewest points allowed per game – 54.3 – breaking the record set the previous year.
• Last year's team also set new school records for fewest points allowed and lowest opponent field-goal percentage allowed in MAC games. In the 16 conference contests, league foes averaged just 51.9 points and shot only 36.1% from the floor.
• Those trends have continued as the 2013-14 season has gotten underway. In the first three games, BGSU has allowed 54.2 points per game and permitted the opponents to shoot just 37.6% from the field to date.
THE MARIST RED FOXES
Marist is 0-3 on the young season, having suffered a home loss to nationally-ranked Kentucky and road setbacks vs. Albany and Princeton. The Red Foxes have won the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference regular-season title in each of the last 10 years and the MAAC Tournament crown in eight-straight seasons, and MC was the unanimous pick to win the league again in 2013-14. Senior guard Leanne Ockenden paces three double-digit scorers with 14.7 points per game this season to date, and she also has 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists per contest. Sophomore G/F Madeline Blais and senior forward Emma O'Connor have 11.7 and 11.0 ppg, respectively. O'Connor leads the team with 6.0 rpg. Head coach Brian Giorgis welcomed back 11 letterwinners, including four starters, from last year's team. The 2012-13 edition of the Red Foxes went 26-7 overall and a perfect 18-0 in the MAAC, advancing to the NCAA Championships for the eighth consecutive March.
THE SERIES
The Falcons trail Marist, 1-0, in the all-time series between the teams. The lone prior meeting came in the Preseason WNIT four years ago (Nov. 21, 2009), when the Red Foxes rallied from a double-digit deficit to post a 70-65 win over the Falcons. All-American Rachele Fitz led all players with 28 points for Marist, while Tara Breske had 16 points to lead three BG double-digit scorers. Jennifer Roos is 0-0 against the Red Foxes as a head coach.
BGSU-MARIST TIES
Marist head volleyball coach Tom Hanna spent four seasons as the top assistant at BGSU. Hanna was on former Falcon head coach Denise Van De Walle's staff from 1996-99, helping the Brown and Orange to a 21-12 overall record in his final season.
THE OLD DOMINION LADY MONARCHS
Old Dominion is 2-1 on the year. The Lady Monarchs will face host Ohio State on Friday before meeting the Falcons the following day. ODU's first three games all came at home, as the team sandwiched wins over Delaware State and Radford around a loss to Virginia Tech. Senior guard Stephanie Gardner leads the Lady Monarchs with 16.3 points per game to date, while junior forward Shae Kelley has 13.0 ppg. Kelley leads the team in rebounds (9.7 rpg), assists (4.3 apg) and steals 3.7 spg). Junior forward Chelisa Painter has 8.7 ppg and 7.3 rpg to date. Head coach Karen Barefoot welcomed back nine letterwinners, including four starters, from last year's club that went 19-12 overall and 10-8 in the Colonial Athletic Association. ODU is now a member of Conference USA.
THE SERIES
Saturday's game will be the first-ever women's basketball contest between the Falcons and Old Dominion.
.
THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYES
Ohio State has a 3-1 record, and the Buckeyes face both ODU (Friday) and Marist (Saturday) before meeting the Falcons on Sunday. OSU went on the road and downed West Virginia to open the season, and the Buckeyes won home games over Florida Atlantic and VCU before suffering a narrow, 53-49 loss at Georgia on Sunday (Nov. 17). Sophomore guard Ameryst Alston is averaging 23.3 points per game through the first four contests, and also is dishing out 3.0 assists per game. Another sophomore guard, Cait Craft, has 14.3 ppg and is shooting 56.3% from the field, while senior center Ashley Adams has 11.0 ppg along with team-leading totals of 8.8 rebounds and 3.0 blocked shots per game. Kevin McGuff is in his first season as head coach of the Buckeyes. He inherited 11 letterwinners, including three starters, from last year's team. The 2012-13 edition of the Buckeyes went 18-13 overall and 7-9 in Big Ten Conference play.
THE SERIES
The Falcons trail Ohio State, 14-1, in that series, and OSU has won the last 12 meetings. The last game between the clubs came in the Preseason WNIT, and saw the host Buckeyes open up a large halftime lead en route to a 91-72 win over the Falcons at Value City Arena (Nov. 15, 2009). OSU, ranked third in the nation, led by a 55-28 score at the break, and BG – while outscoring the hosts, 44-36, in the second half – could never get closer than 17 points over the final 20 minutes. The Falcons are 1-2 in home games, 0-7 on the road and 0-5 in neutral-site contests vs. OSU. All 14 of the Buckeyes' victories have come by double digits, while BG's only series win came by six points nearly four decades ago (a 56-50 win on Jan. 18, 1975). Jennifer Roos is 0-0 against the Buckeyes as a head coach.
TOUGH CROWD
The four teams participating in this weekend's games at Value City Arena averaged nearly 22 wins last season. Marist went 26-7 a year ago, while BGSU was 24-11, Old Dominion 19-12 and Ohio State 18-13.
