BYU Gets 20 Wins - BYU Meets Utah in MWC Tournament

Written by: CrashUtah

What a great win against New Mexico tonight! It was quite sad to see the women lose, but that’s not so surprising without Ambrosia Anderson playing. 20 wins could never have been expected. If they grab a couple wins in the MWC tournament then we have a good shot at the NCAA tournament. Otherwise, I guess we’ll have to see how BYU does in the NIT. Although, I’m afraid if BYU does make the NCAA tournament it will be mostly a learning experience for the young BYU team. Next year with some experience I could see some potential for success in the tourney.

I’m not sure about the matchup with Utah. That should be a tough rivalry game for BYU to start the tourney. Let’s hope BYU’s young squad can hold it together in a tournament atmosphere which has shown in past years to have a lot of upsets.

I must also apologize to the BYU team for giving up on them when they were 2-3 in the MWC. I’ll be cheering for you in the tourney. I just wish the MWC tournament was in Las Vegas and not in Denver. Next year things will be back to the way it should be.

Congrats BYU on 20 surprising wins!! Dave Rose for MWC Coach of the Year!
