WBB vs E. Washington

First home game in almost five weeks Thursday night at 7pm. The Eags have sophomore Kourtney Grossman, last year’s Big Sky freshman of the year, this year’s conference rebounding leader, and Taylee Chirrick’s Billings West teammate when they were freshman & sophomore’s. I would be most interested if Binford ever recruited & offered Grossman?
Also, I may have missed it, but it would sure be informative if someone in the media would find out the injury status of Fatupaito, Dylan P. & Heidi S. (SACCAT?).

Grossman is a heck of a player, she had 22 rebounds in their game against Idaho last weekend and is averaging 13 rebounds per game as well as 13.5 points per game on the season. I've also wondered in the past about whether Coach Binford ever had any interest there...maybe Kourtney doesn't really fit in the up-tempo, pressure defense style MSU likes to play?

Media is not informed of progress, or injuries of players. There are many reasons for this, but know that they are very good reasons.
As for the players mentioned, I will have what I am allowed to say in the broadcast tonight.

Thank you for the response. For comparison, in Vigen's weekly presser, he is asked all the time about the injury status of player(s). He gives a general response (not a full-blown medical report). If WBB injuries are a "State Secret"...

Brooke Fatupaito’s picture is being used on the Bobcats’ Instagram page to promote today’s game. Would be a strange choice if she’s still injured and not playing, so I think we’ll see her return today… fingers crossed!

All the coaches are wearing Natty merch. Nice touch!

The offense is going to be the death of this team. They really struggle to score, especially against zone defense. Good to see Addison hit a midrange jumper in the hole in that zone.

Cats shooting 5/22 and down by 7 at the end of the 1st qtr. Need to make layups.

8 offensive rebounds is keeping the Cats in it. Shooting less than 10% from 3pt range won't.

Can Madison O'Connor just graduate from Baker HS now, join this team for spring semester, and show the Cats how to hit threes.

The Cats narrowed an 11 pt deficit down to 6 at one point, but down by 9 at the end of the 3rd. Poor shooting continues, unfortunately.

We take such horrible shots. And then when they have point blank shots under the hoop we cant make them.
And then Taylee hits a 3 to tie it
