Watched the game at home and then went and watched the last quarter at the Mabee. They had their hands full with mismatches and the bigs from Texas State. I hope they get Jentry Holt and Mayberry soon to help with the flow. New Gore sisters are really good and will help but the best progress from last year is Rylie Torrey and KeniJoe Lippe. A year difference is amazing in maturity. I still am in the dark about Mayberry.
