Michigan Women's Basketball: Michigan beats MSU 64-55 in front of 5,596 fans a record crowd at Crisler

Michigan Women's Basketball program beat MSU 64-55 yesterday in front of a record crownd of 5,596 fans in Crisler Arena.

The Michigan program last year only won ten games and they have already have ten wins now with a tougher non-conference schedule this year. Michigan is now 10-5, 3-2 Big Ten. Michigan's win broke a six-year, nine-game losing streak to the Spartans on Sunday which in front of a huge crowd will only bring in more excitement and attract more kids. Beating MSU not only helps with confidence, but will help in recruiting the state of Michigan with high school girls looking at either MSU or Michigan.

Michigan shot 80% from the foul line, 40% FG percentage while shooting 41% from the three point line and beyond. Maybe we can suit up some of those three point shooters for the Men's team since we seem to be struggling shooting the three pointer.

This year Michigan Women's Basketball program has some good wins against some named programs such as USC, Kentucky and now MSU. Coach Kevin Borseth and his staff have brought a new approach and also a winning attitude which this program has needed for several years. Hopefully starting off really well will give this team some confidence to compete in the Big Ten and see what happens when the tournament might be calling this year. The Big Ten will be tough this year, but the ladies have shown they are ready to compete and as long as they can keep hitting from the outside they can compete with just about anybody on any given night.
