Media Guidelines The 2016-17 Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball media guide is designed to assist the media with its coverage of EMU basketball. Additional information, statistics and photographs may be acquired by contacting Greg Steiner in the EMU Athletic Media Relations Office, Suite 307, Convocation Center, Ypsilanti, Michigan 48197. Press Credentials Requests for working press space should be made in writing at least one week before the date of the home contest to the EMU Athletic Media Relations Office. The request should be made by the sports director of the newspaper, magazine, radio or television outlet wishing to send a reporter(s) to the game. Outlets that have made proper credential requests are entitled to receive copies of the final game statistics, play-by-play and a scoring summary, as well as any press information provided by the competing institutions. Confirmation of the request will be made by EMU Athletic Media Relations personnel. Press credentials WILL NOT be issued to spouses, friends or children. Press row is a working area. Press credentials can be picked up in the EMU Athletic Media Relations Office during the week of a home contest. If credentials are requested and approved, they will only be mailed if the request is granted at least two weeks prior to the game. Any credentials not picked up will be left at the will call window. Please make your credential requests to: Greg Steiner 307 Convocation Center Eastern Michigan University 799 N. Hewitt Road Ypsilanti, MI 48197 Office: 734.487.0317 E-mail: greg.steiner@emich.edu Parking Credentials Eastern Michigan University does not issue parking passes as EMU does not charge for parking for basketball. Photographers Photographers are issued similar credentials to press row media. Photographers are allowed to shoot from outside the dotted line surrounding the playing court. Radio EMU basketball can be heard live on WEMU, 89.1 FM and on the Internet at emueagles. com and wemu.org.

Visiting Radio Visiting radio stations receive one reciprocal phone line and one Ethernet line for their game broadcasts. The visiting radio line is directly across from the visitors’ bench. Should more lines be needed, please contact Greg Steiner for arrangements.

Wireless Internet For those with laptop computers that can automatically select an IP address, there is a wireless Internet connection available in the Convocation Center. See an Athletic Media Relations representative for the login password.

Interview Policy (Mid-Week) Most practices are open to the media. However, all media are recommended to make an advance call to the EMU Athletic Media Relations Office to check on the status of practice for a particular day. Failure to do so may result in an individual’s removal from the venue. Head Coach Tory Verdi is available to speak to the media via phone MondayThursday mornings. Individual players are available for interviews Monday-Wednesday. Please contact the EMU Athletic Media Relations Office at least 24-hours in advance to set up interviews. Players should not be contacted for interviews at their residences, on their cell phones, via e-mail, Facebook, Twitter and all other social networking entities. During regular season practices, still photographers and videographers will be allowed to shoot only during pre-practice individual drills, which usually last approximately 10 minutes at the beginning of practice. Media members covering practices or scrimmages will not be permitted to report any scouting information (formations, personnel groupings, etc.) without first speaking with a member of the EMU coaching staff or the media relations office. Failure to adhere to this guideline could result in the closing of all practices and scrimmages to the media. First-year players, including freshmen and transfers, will be made available to the media only after they have made a significant contribution or at the coach’s discretion.

On the Internet Information will be updated regularly at EMU’s official athletics website. For media information, go to the women’s basketball web page to find updated PDF files containing, notes, statistics, rosters and schedules. Going Green Starting with the 2010 season, Eastern Michigan University no longer prints media guides.

Season Notes EAGLES IN LID LIFTERS: In 40 seasons, the Green and White have compiled a 27-13 record in season openers. In fact, the Eagles have won six consecutive lid lifters dating back to the 2008-09 season. That year, EMU fell to North Dakota, 80-71, on the road.

Head Coach Fred Castro Fred Castro Head Coach ~ First Season at EMU Oklahoma, 2004

Fred Castro was named as the eighth Head Women’s Basketball Coach at Eastern Michigan University, May 5, 2016, by Vice President/Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Heather Lyke. Castro will start his first season at EMU in 2016-17. A rising star in the coaching world, the 36-year old Castro has spent the past 15 years climbing the ranks from student manager to now the eighth head coach in EMU program history. During his career, he has worked tirelessly to learn and has held nearly every position within a women’s basketball program including serving as offensive coordinator, recruiting coordinator, video coordinator, and travel coordinator. “We are incredibly proud to announce Fred Castro as our next head women’s basketball coach,” said Lyke. “When we had the chance to meet with Fred, he exudes confidence, preparation and passion. His intellect, personality, past coaching experiences and mentors have well prepared him to lead this team and build a winning program. Most importantly, he genuinely wants to have a positive impact in the lives of our student-athletes and will make them even better players and people. We are thrilled to welcome Fred and his family to the Eastern Michigan Athletics team.” Castro has been a part of 10 squads that have participated in the postseason since the 2001-02 campaign, including a pair of trips to the NCAA Tournament Final Four. In 15 years of coaching, his teams have combined to post a 317-171 record (.650 winning percentage) and eight seasons of 20-or-more victories. “I am thrilled and humbled to be named Head Coach of the Eastern Michigan women’s basketball program,” Castro added. “The leadership and vision Heather Lyke has for this program gives me great confidence that we can reach all of our goals in the future. This team has accomplished a great deal but I truly believe the best is yet to come. I am eager to get in the gym and start working with our players and doing the work necessary for us to be successful.” Castro comes to Ypsilanti following a three year stint in Seattle as an assistant coach with the Huskies, in which Washington posted a 69-35 record and a trip to the 2016 NCAA Tournament Final Four. He worked with the guards and acted as the team’s offensive coordinator as the Huskies defeated 14 top-25 programs during his tenure. A storybook 2015-16 campaign saw Washington post a 26-11 record and the program’s first Final Four appearance. Dealing with a short bench due to injuries, the Huskies utilized a six-woman rotation as it tore through the NCAA Tournament, including beating No. 4 Stanford, 85–76, to win the South Regional. Washington finished the year ranked in the top 50 in 11 statistical categories including: free throws made (521 - 6th), free throw percentage (78.0% - 6th), three-pointers made (271 17th) and rebounds (1,437 - 23rd). 26

Castro tutored USBWA All-America honoree Kelsey Plum, who was fourth in the nation in scoring at 25.9 points per game, while leading the country in total points with 960. In addition to her scoring prowess, Plum averaged 3.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists, while leading the nation in both free throws made (266) and attempted (299). The junior guard broke the Washington record for points in a season, while also setting the Pacific-12 Conference record for career free throws made. Castro’s guards saw success in 2014-15 as he coached Plum and Jazmine Davis through a record-breaking season. Plum finished her season ranked seventh in the nation in scoring and second in free throws made. Additionally, she set UW single-season records in 30-point games (7), free throws made (207) and percentage (89.6%), single season scoring (746 points), and points in a game with 45 against Oklahoma. Davis completed her senior season with the Dawgs as the UW all-time leader in six categories including points, three-point field goals and free throws made. She also become the first four-time All-Pac-12 player in UW history. In his first year with the program, Washington earned a trip to the quarterfinals of the Postseason WNIT. The Huskies finished 2014, including 10-8 in the Pac-12. The Dawgs defeated five teams that were ranked at some point during the season, including an upset of then-No. 3 Stanford at Alaska Airlines Arena in front of a nationally televised audience. The win ended the 58-game road conference winning streak of the Cardinal. On the recruiting trail, Washington national prominence continued to improve with the 2016 recruiting class ranked 16thbest in the country. Castro inked a McDonald’s All-American in 2015 class, while UW’s 2014 incoming group was ranked in the top-25 nationally. He arrived at Washington from the University of Tulsa where he served as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator from 201113. When Castro arrived at Tulsa, the Golden Hurricane were coming off just five wins, but in 2013 they won the Conference USA Tournament title and advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Castro helped put together a pair of top-50 recruiting classes at Tulsa, while also assisting with on-floor coaching, including practice planning, player development and scouting. His final recruiting class was ranked 39th nationally and fourth amongst mid-majors. In 2012, Castro was first invited to the Nike Villa 7 Clinic for the top 30 assistant coaches in the country. He attended the clinic yearly from 2012-15.

What They Are Saying About Fred Castro “Eastern Michigan is gaining a great family. Fred, Cynthia, Aliya and Alonso have impacted our family, campus, program, and city ever since they have been here and have been a huge in every phase of our success since arriving and I feel you can expect the exact same thing at Eastern Michigan. He has the ability to connect anybody he’s around, whether that’s a coach, player, recruit, booster, anybody, he has a knack for developing and maintaining relationships and fostering connections with people. You couple that with his knowledge on the court, his work ethic, and desire to build and you have got a lethal combination. You have somebody who has all the tools to be successful and make the transition from assistant coach to head coach. I think he has a support system with deep coaching roots which is why I think is coaching tree will branch quickly.” Mike Neighbors, Head Coach University of Washington “Fred is a quintessential gym rat. He has an unrivaled passion for the game of basketball. As a scout team player here at Oklahoma and then our video coordinator, a young guy getting into the business, he had a hunger that was unquenchable. I think that’s what makes him great and will continue to make him great because he never rests. He wants to continually learn and get better. I think he has a great vision of what he wants the program to look like and the framework around which he will build it. I can tell you, nobody will outwork him. He is incredibly bright, has dogged determination, and he has a great feel for the game of basketball. He sees it and has the ability to communicate with players about what he sees, which I think is key to successful coaching. It’s not what he knows, it’s what he can get them to know and I think that’s probably where is greatest gift lies.” Sherri Coale, Head Coach University of Oklahoma

She ended the season averaging 14.5 points per game, just shy of the freshman school record and averaged 9.1 rebounds per game. The 6-foot-2 freshman also caught the conference’s attention by finishing out the regular season in the top 10 out of all Big West players in multiple categories, including: double-doubles (1st, 12), scoring (3rd- 14.5 ppg), rebounding (2nd – 9.1 rpg), offensive rebounds (8th – 2.0 rpg), defensive rebounds (1st – 7.1 rpg) and minutes played (2nd – 35.5 avg/g).

The Titans worked their way into the school record book on multiple occasions, setting school records in fewest points allowed in a half, most three-point field goals made in a game, most three-point field goals made in a season, and most threepoint field goals attempted in a season. Fullerton’s defense was historically stingy against UC Irvine on Jan. 15, allowing only 12 points to the Anteaters in the first half en route to a 62-51 victory at Bren Events Center. Olajuwon, the daughter of NBA Hall of Fame center Hakeem Olajuwon, spent three years playing professionally in the WNBA and overseas. In 2010, she was the fourth pick in the draft by the Chicago Sky and appeared in six games. The following season, Olajuwon was signed by the Tulsa Shock and played 16 games.

Our History

Founded in 1849, when the state of Michigan was just 12 years old, Michigan State Normal School was designated by the state legislature as the first institution to educate teachers to serve the public schools. The University thus began, somewhat humbly, as the sixth teacher education institution in the nation. A campus that today comprises more than 800 acres was once a four-acre plot with one building and two programs of study – a classical course and an English Course. The school’s name changed several times – to Michigan State Normal College in 1899; to Eastern Michigan College in 1956; and finally to Eastern Michigan University in 1959. During its first 100 years, the institution certified thousands of teachers and developed the broad-based curricula that ultimately prepared it for university status. Within that new university, three colleges emerged: Education, Arts and Sciences and the Graduate School. The University has since expanded three more times, adding the College of Business in 1964, the College of Health and Human Services in 1975, and the College of Technology in 1980. More recently ,Eastern Michigan has developed Extended Programs and numerous community-focused institutes. The university has enhanced its learning environment through structural initiatives during the past several years. Recent construction includes the Terrestrial and Aquatic Research Facility (1998), the Convocation Center (1998), the Bruce T. Halle Library (1998), the John W. Porter College of Education Building (1999), the Everett L. Marshall College of Health and Human Services Building (2000), the Village residence hall (2001), University House (2003), new Student Center (2006), and the new Science Complex (2010).

Lyke’s penchant for facility trend-setting and creative branding was on full display almost immediately with the installation of college football’s first gray Revolution Field Turf football field in 2014. As phase one of a comprehensive branding plan for EMU Football and Rynearson Stadium, the new turf received immediate recognition as a USA Today fan vote ranked EMU’s new field No. 2 in the nation behind only the University of Tennessee. With a field designed for players ‘tough enough to play on a parking lot,’ Lyke and her team have embraced South East Michigan’s blue collar roots and automotive history, inspiring an organic re-branding of Rynearson Stadium to become “The Factory.” This comprehensive campaign has included Factory signage upgrades throughout the stadium, a re-design of the football team’s studentathlete lounge, Factory driven merchandise options and in-game team and fan elements, along with a football game day website, EMUGameday. com, that takes fans inside The Factory for more details on its history and traditions. The campaign is emboldened by the ever-present slogan ‘Champions Built Here.’ Now a fixture throughout EMU facilities, social media and marketing materials, Champions Built Here aggressively pronounces that at EMU, and in The Factory, we build champions on the field, in the classroom and in life. It takes champions to build champions, and from day one Lyke set about upgrading the business model of Eastern Michigan Athletics. Just a few of the companies that have developed first-ever partnerships with EMU during Lyke’s two year tenure include: IMG, Learfield Licensing, Aspire, Follett, Fanatics and Google. She has also re-negotiated lucrative new pouring rights and apparel contracts with Pepsi and Adidas that position EMU’s agreements as some of the most competitive in the Mid-American Conference. Lyke’s resource development focus has also led to the creation of two critical new groups already making major contributions to the future of the department. Eagles Pride, EMU Athletics’ first ever annual fund, was founded in 2014 complete with benefit structure and dedicated website to encourage enrollment. The fund is committed to providing financial support for all EMU teams and providing donors an entry level platform to impact EMU Athletics

Heather Lyke EMU Vice President/Director of Athletic Eastern Michigan University’s (EMU’s) first ever Mid-American Conference (MAC) Cartwright Award for all-around athletic department excellence… EMU’s first ever MAC Jacoby Award for female athletic excellence… The highest overall GPA in EMU Athletic History (3.259)… The highest graduation rates in EMU Athletic History… 5000+ hours of student-athlete community service in a single year… ‘Champions Built Here’ has been more than an athletics mantra during the first three years of Heather Lyke’s tenure as EMU Vice President and Director of Athletics, it has defined a new era. Lyke, the 13th Director of Athletics in Eastern Michigan history, and the first woman to hold the full-time athletic director position at EMU, oversees the MAC’s most comprehensive and one of its most successful collegiate athletics programs. The department sponsors 21 fully-funded varsity sports with more than 550+ student-athletes regularly competing for MAC Championships and NCAA Championship selection. With a firm commitment to student-athlete experience and comprehensive excellence, Lyke has set about transforming EMU into the MAC’s dominant athletic program. Under her leadership EMU Athletics has hired 10 head coaches and 12 key administrators. During her three year tenure, EMU coaches and staff have won 15 MAC Coach of the Year Awards, and mentored 13 MAC team champions, 17 MAC Players of the Year, 80 MAC individual champions, 215 All-MAC student-athletes and 364 AllMAC Academic award winners. Lyke’s unwavering emphasis on academic achievement has supported student-athletes who have broken and reset EMU academic records under her watch. In 2013-14, EMU studentathletes turned in a then all-time high overall GPA of 3.159 in the fall, and followed it up with the second highest all-time GPA (3.145) in the winter. 67 student-athletes earned 4.0 GPAs during at least one term and 68% of all student-athletes had a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. EMU’s Graduation Success Rate of 77% and Federal Graduation Rate of 61% were also both new EMU records. Not to be outdone, the 2014-15 EMU fall student-athlete GPA of 3.242 set another all-time record, only to be bested once more when the winter GPA registered at 3.259. The academic year included 73% of all student-athletes, and 16 of 21 teams, achieving a GPA over 3.0. An astonishing 67 student-athletes achieved a 4.0 GPA during at least one term for the second year in row.

and its student-athletes. 2015 also saw Lyke’s recruitment of the EMU Champions Advisory Board. This group of committed EMU donors plays a number of key roles for EMU Athletics as ambassadors, advocates, advisors and major donors to the department. This group is currently reviewing and participating in the championship building plan process. Lyke’s ability to build relationships has also extended into the Ypsilanti and Southeast Michigan community. With her undergraduate degree in education and a passion for reading, Lyke immediately set about establishing EMU Athletics as a key partner with the 2nd and 7 Foundation, whose goal is to “tackle illiteracy” by having student-athletes visit, deliver books and read to 2nd grade classrooms. In total, EMU averaged better than 10 community service hours per student-athlete in the 2014-15 academic year with 5000+ hours of service performed. In 2014-15 she also served as Chair of the Washtenaw County American Heart Association Heartwalk, setting a university record for fundraised dollars and registered walkers. Lyke has also reached out to some of Detroit’s most underfunded neighborhoods and schools by striking a long-term partnership with buildOn, a program for inner city youth to overcome the cycle of poverty through community service leadership. In 2014, Lyke cultivated an anonymous donation of $100,000 to the buildOn program and is developing an annual on-campus visit for all interested buildOn students to tour EMU and enjoy a weekend football game. An ardent proponent of growing the profession, Lyke is a sought after national speaker, presenter and leader in the business of college athletics. In 2014, she became the first woman ever to chair the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Committee, and led the Mid-American Conference as chair of their Cost of Attendance Task Force.

The EMU Identity NOT ALWAYS THE EAGLES Since the 1991 season, Eastern Michigan University athletic teams have gone by the nickname “Eagles.” The Eagles name was officially adopted on May 22, 1991, when the EMU Board of Regents voted to replace the existing Huron nickname and logo with the new one. EMU originally went by the nicknames “Normalites” and “Men from Ypsi” and various other titles down through the years before “Hurons” was adopted in 1929. The “Hurons” first came into being as the result of a contest sponsored by the Men’s Union in 1929. On Oct. 31 of that year, a three-person committee, composed of Dr. Clyde Ford, Dr. Elmer Lyman and Professor Bert Peet, selected the name “Hurons” from the many entries in the contest. The name was submitted by two students, Gretchen Borst and George Hanner. Hanner was working at the Huron Hotel at the time of the contest and was no doubt as much influenced by his place of employment as by the Huron Indian tribe. The runner-up name in that contest was Pioneers. EMU began investigating the appropriateness of its Huron Indian logo after the Michigan Department of Civil Rights issued a report in October 1988 suggesting that all schools using such logos drop them. The report indicated that the use of Native American names, logos and mascots for athletic teams promoted racial stereotypes. At that time, four colleges, 62 high schools and 33 junior high/middle schools in Michigan used Indian logos or names. The EMU Board of Regents voted to replace the Huron name with Eagles, taken from three recommendations from a committee charged with supplying a new nickname. The other two final names submitted were Green Hornets and Express.

Eagles Pride

Eagles Pride provides vital financial support to more than 550 student-athletes at Eastern Michigan University as they strive for excellence on the court and in the classroom. Nearly 1,000 donors generously supported our outstanding scholar-athletes each year. Established in 1994, Eagles Pride (formerly the EMU Athletic Club) raises funds in three key areas for EMU's 21 varsity athletic teams: annual-use operating funds, endowment, and facility related projects. Today, annual-use giving is the most critical area of support needed by the Athletic Department. These contributions directly support the operating budgets of our teams and help provide the most basic needs to our coaches and student-athletes, including comprehensive national recruiting efforts, out of region travel to maintain nationally competitive schedules, equipment such as uniforms, balls, nets, bats, and much more. Gifts to any of our teams, or to the Eagles Pride Fund (which will be used for the most urgent needs of the athletic department), are an investment in the future leaders of the state of Michigan. Join Eagles Pride today and make a difference for EMU Athletics.

MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE

Mid-American Conference Providing leadership in education and diversity, the Mid-American Conference moves into its 70th year of service to our students. Since its inception in 1946, the Mid-American Conference has progressively grown and developed into one of the most aggressive Division I conferences in the country. One of only 10 football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) conferences, the MAC named Dr. Jon A. Steinbrecher as its eighth commissioner in March of 2009. The league has grown its commitment to championships by expanding its commitment to neutral site post-season events – football (Ford Field, Detroit), men’s and women’s basketball (Quicken Loans Arena, Cleveland), softball (Firestone Stadium, Akron) and baseball (All Pro Freight Stadium, Avon, Ohio). The MAC secured a four-year contract extension with Ford Field to host the Marathon MAC Football Championship Game through the 2019 football season, anchored a six-year contract extension for the MAC Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments at Quicken Loans Arena through the 2023 season, and stabilized a five year contract extension through the 2020 season for the MAC Baseball Tournament at All Pro Freight Stadium in Avon, Ohio. In addition to growing its commitment to MAC championships, Steinbrecher has strategically positioned the MAC’s participation in hosting NCAA events and championships. The MAC recently served as the host for the 2015 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Midwest Regional at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland and will also serve as host of the 2018 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships, also at Quicken Loans Arena. The MAC has previously hosted both the 2012 and 2014 NCAA Women’s Bowling Championships under Steinbrecher’s direction. In the summer of 2014, the MAC and ESPN announced a historic 13year rights extension deal through the 2026-27 season for expanded national television and digital distribution. This is the largest and most extensive agreement in the history of the Conference and brings longterm security for the MAC through the 2026-27 academic year. ESPN has exclusive television and digital distribution rights for all MAC sporting events, and guarantees coverage of every football game, and select men’s and women’s basketball and Olympic sporting events. The MAC and ESPN will establish on-campus production capabilities that will provide a significant increase in the national coverage of baseball, softball, soccer, volleyball, wrestling and Olympic sports on ESPN3. This will open up nearly 92 million households from ESPN3 for exposure to MAC sports for the first time in Conference history. Through this ESPN partnership, the MAC and CBS Sports Network announced a four-year sub-licensing agreement to expand its national coverage of football and basketball through the 2018-19 season. Last season the MAC had five programs receive football bowl invitations: Northern Illinois (Boca Raton Bowl), Bowling Green (Raycom Media Camellia Bowl), Toledo (GoDaddy Bowl), Central Michigan (Popeyes Bahamas Bowl) and Western Michigan (Famous Idaho Potato Bowl). In December of 2013, former Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch finished third overall in the Heisman Trophy voting, the highest ever finish by a MAC student. Lynch was invited to the Heisman Trophy Award ceremony in New York City and became only the third MAC student-athlete to receive an invitation to the ceremony – Marshall QB Chad Pennington (1999) and Marshall WR Randy Moss (1997). During the 2014 NFL Draft, Buffalo Bulls linebacker Khalil Mack was the fifth overall selection by the Oakland Raiders. Mack’s selection was the highest-ever for the Buffalo program and the second highest ever selection for a MAC student. This marked the second consecutive year for the MAC to have its two highest ever selections in the NFL Draft. In the 2013 NFL Draft, Central Michigan offensive tackle Eric Fisher was selected as the first overall selection by the Kansas City Chiefs, making Fisher the first-ever football player from the MAC selected first overall in the NFL Draft. In 2012, the MAC witnessed a record setting seven teams receive bowl invitations, including the first ever BCS Bowl invitation with Northern Illinois playing in the Discover Orange Bowl on Jan. 1, 2013. The MAC also had four football programs ranked in the top 25 of national polls – Northern Illinois, Kent State, Toledo and Ohio—as the BCS Standings had two MAC programs in the Top 25 at the end of the regular season with No. 15 Northern Illinois and No. 25 Kent State. The MAC also set a conference record for the most wins against FBS opponents with 16 victories. In the fall of 2013, the MAC announced the creation of newly created bowl games in Boca Raton, Fla., Nassau, Bahamas, Miami Beach, Fla., and Montgomery, Ala. for a six-year period (2014-2019). The creation of the Boca Raton, Popeyes Bahamas and Miami Beach Bowls is the centerpiece of a joint agreement between several FBS conferences and will be supported by several FBS conferences on a six-year rotating basis. The Boca Raton Bowl will be owned and operated by ESPN and will be played at FAU Stadium, an open air stadium which seats nearly 30,000 fans on the campus of Florida Atlantic University. The Popeyes Bahamas Bowl will be played at Thomas A. Robinson Stadium. The Miami Beach Bowl will be played at Marlins Park. The Camellia Bowl, based in Montgomery, Ala., is owned and operated by ESPN and will be played in the Cramton Bowl, a 25,000 seat stadium. The MAC is also a partner with the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl as a primary partner in 2017 and 2019, and a secondary partner in 2015, 2016 and 2018 bowl seasons. The MAC will play the Mountain West in both the 2017 and 2019 bowl seasons, played at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego. Each football season the MAC has a minimum five guaranteed bowl opportunities. The MAC has long-term primary contracts with the GoDaddy Bowl (based in Mobile, Ala.) through the 2017 season and Famous Idaho Potato Bowl (based in Boise, Ida.) through the 2019 season. During the 2014 football season, NIU won the Marathon MAC Foot-

ball Championship for the third time in the last four years. Kent State safety Jordan Italiano and Bowling Green kicker Tyler Tate were named CoSIDA Capital One First Team Academic All-Americans, while Central Michigan quarterback Cooper Rush added Second Team recognition. Western Michigan freshman running back Jarvion Franklin was named USA Today Freshman All-American. Toledo senior center Greg Mancz was named by the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) as Second Team All-American. The National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame named 25 MAC students as members of the 2015 Hampshire Honor Society, which recognizes college football players that maintained a 3.20 GPA or better throughout their college career. Four more MAC students were drafted into the NFL, including MAC Defensive Player of the Year and Miami defensive back Quinten Rollins by the Green Bay Packers in the second round. In men’s basketball, the MAC witnessed the No. 2 seed Buffalo Bulls win its first ever MAC Tournament Championship. The MAC had six programs invited to postseason tournaments (NCAA-Buffalo; NIT-Central Michigan; CIT-Bowling Green, Kent State and Western Michigan; CBI-Eastern Michigan). Kent State advanced to the CIT Quarterfinals with wins over Middle Tennessee State and Texas A&M Corpus Christi. During the 2014-15 academic year, Akron men’s soccer team won its 11th MAC Championship, third consecutive and seventh overall in the last eight years. Akron made its 29th NCAA Tournament berth, however it ended as Ohio State advanced on penalty kicks after 15 rounds in a 1-1 tie.

YPSILANTI, Mich. – Despite a slow start in the first quarter, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team battled its way to a 94-77 victory over Hillsdale College in its 2015-16 season opener at the Convocation Center, Tuesday Nov. 17. Junior Cha Sweeney led the Eagles (1-0, 0-0 MAC) in scoring on the day with 25 points, while also dishing out a game-high seven assists. Fellow juniors Phillis Webb and Janay Morton had 18 and 16 points respectively. The EMU full court press defense was the biggest hassle to the Chargers’ attack throughout the day, forcing 20 turnovers. Morton and Webb led EMU with three steals each. The Green and White turned the Hillsdale miscues into 17 points on the day. As a team, the Eagles shot 46 percent from the floor while going 10-of-21 (48 percent) from three-point land. They used their distinct size advantage throughout the contest outscoring the Chargers 40-32 in the paint while blocking six of their shots. Senior Chanise Baldwin led EMU with three swats in her EMU debut. As for Hillsdale, they were led by the 20 points of senior Kelsey Cromer, while junior Becca Scherting and freshman Allie Dewire chipped in 17 each. Both teams came out firing in the first quarter, going back and forth throughout the duration of the period. The difference maker was EMU forcing eight Hillsdale turnovers and turning them into eight points. Despite that, the score was tied 14-14 after one. The Eagles began to find their stroke in the second quarter, jumping out to a 33-17 advantage on the tail of a 19-3 run, with Webb accounting for 10 of the points. The Eagles shot a scorching 50 percent from the floor in the half, while holding Hillsdale to just 28 percent. At halftime, the Eagles held a 41-26 lead heading into the locker room. In the second half, Sweeney began to take over, scoring the first eight Eagle points of the period and 10 points total in the third frame. Hillsdale continued to battle though, as they cut the deficit to nine halfway through the quarter. They would get the lead down to as little as eight before EMU took a 64-53 lead into the fourth. Hillsdale tried to keep the momentum into the final quarter, hitting a three out of the gate, but Morton answered with a three of her own to put the lead back at 11. Morton led the way in the final frame with 10 points in the quarter. Despite Hillsdale battling close throughout the period, EMU pulled away late in the game sealing the 17 point victory.

YPSILANTI, Mich. – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team (2-0, 0-0 MAC) overwhelmed the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (3-2, 0-0 WAC) on their way to a 78-56 win Saturday afternoon, Nov. 21, at the Convocation Center. The Eagles’ zone defense forced 17 turnovers while holding the Vaqueos without a field goal for more than 14 minutes in the second half. Junior Janay Morton led the defensive charge with a career high seven steals to go along with her team-high 19 points. Junior Cha Sweeney also reached double figures on the day, scoring 18 points, while three Eagles led the team in rebounds with seven. EMU’s defense was the main factor on the day, holding both of UTRGV’s leading scorers to season-low shooting percentages and point totals. In all, the Vaqueros were held to just 28.6 percent from the floor, including a mere 15.4 percent in the second half. Sophomore Hildur Kjartansdottir led UTRGV offensively, scoring 15 points. The Eagles got out to a quick start, jumping all over the Vaqueros for a 10-2 lead, but UTRGV battled back off a couple Eagle turnovers to make the score 12-8 midway through the first quarter. EMU outscored UTRGV 15-5 the rest of the frame before a buzzerbeating three gave by the Vaqueros the Eagles a 27-16 first quarter advantage. Out of the break, fueled by back-to-back three pointers by senior Sera Ozelci (Ankara, Turkey-TED Ankara College), EMU scored the first 10 points of the frame to take a commanding 37-16 lead. UTRGV did not back down before the half however, and outscored EMU 20-12 in the final seven minutes. The Green and White held a 49-36 edge at halftime. Morton led the Eagles in the first half on both sides of the ball, dropping 12 points while tying her career-high in steals with five takeaways. The third quarter saw both teams begin to slow down on the offensive side, as the score sat at 55-39 midway through the period. Sweeney accounted for all six of the Eagle points in that timeframe. In total she scored eight points in the quarter, outscoring the Vaqueros 8-5, and giving EMU a 61-41 lead going into the fourth. The Eagle defense held UTRGV without a field goal in the entire third quarter, as the Vaqueros shot 0-for-14 in all. The Green and White continued to stifle UTRGV defensively in the final quarter, holding them without a field goal until the 5:47 mark. The offense couldn’t pick them up though, as the Eagles only scored five points themselves in that time. The teams combined for just 22 points the rest of the way, sealing the 78-56 win for EMU. The contest pitted a pair of standouts from the country of Turkey as EMU’s Sera Ozelci and UTRGV’s Idil Türk. The game is believed by some media reports to be the first NCAA Division I women’s basketball game in which to players from that country played against each other.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Hitting the road for the first time this season, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team squared off against No. 11/12 Kentucky in Memorial Coliseum. The Eagles (2-1, 0-0 MAC) hung with the nationally ranked Wildcats (5-0, 0-0 SEC) but ultimately could not overcome their hot shooting, falling 89-67 in the non-conference affair. Junior Janay Morton paced the Eagles, scoring a season-high 21 points while adding nine rebounds, five assists, and three steals. Fellow juniors Cha Sweeney and Phillis Webb joined Morton in double figures scoring, chipping in 15 and 10, respectively. Taking on their first ranked opponent this season, the Green and White did not shy away from the tall task that stood in front of them. Fueled by the early play of Sweeney and Morton on both ends of the floor, the Eagles hung with Kentucky basket-for-basket. While the junior duo combined for 11 of Eastern Michigan’s first 13 points, their tenacious defensive effort atop the 2-3 zone forced the Wildcats into eight first quarter turnovers. With the Eagles in front by three, UK called a timeout hoping to break the Green and White’s momentum. Returning to the court, sophomore Sasha Dailey forced a turnover in the backcourt. The extra possession gained by Dailey’s high-pressure was capped by a three-pointer by senior Sera Ozelci, lifting the Green and White to a 16-15 lead with 3:30 remaining in the opening frame. Eastern Michigan went on to outscore the Wildcats, 6-4 en route to a 22-19 lead after 10 minutes of play. The second quarter was a tale of two runs as UK opened the period with a 10-2 run over the first four and half minutes of the frame. Trailing by as many as 10, the Eagles clawed their way back within two courtesy of an 11-2 run. Returning to the floor for the second half, trailing by two, the Eagles turned to their captains for production. A buckets by Sweeney, Morton, and Webb allowed the Green and White to regain the lead, 43-42. EMU’s lead did not last long however, as the home team rattled off eight unanswered points to take a 50-43 lead into the media timeout midway through the quarter. The Eagles went on to score the first basket out of the break but it did little to cut UK’s momentum. Kentucky outscored the Eagles 24-4 over a seven minute stretch to distance themselves and take a 66-47 lead into the final quarter. Eastern Michigan hit just 2-of-11 shots during the Wildcats’ run. Kentucky increased their lead throughout the fourth quarter despite every effort by the Eagles, eventually handing the Green and White their first setback of the season, 89-67.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – Behind a 25-point outing from junior Janay Morton and a double-double from senior Chanise Baldwin, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team bounced back with a 77-69 victory against Oral Roberts University (2-5), Dec. 1, at the Convocation Center. While both team’s struggled to score early, the Eagles (3-1) used a substantial advantage in the paint (34-8) to outlast the Golden Eagles Tuesday evening, Dec. 1. Morton shot 53 percent on 8-of-15 shooting from the floor, while knocking down 66 percent of her shots from beyond the arc. Baldwin posted the first double-double of her Eagle career, as she posted 15 points and 14 rebounds on the night, both of which were season bests. In addition to Morton and Baldwin, junior Phillis Webb nearly turned in a double-double as well, finishing with 12 points and nine rebounds on the night. As a team, the Eagles shot 43.5 percent from the floor and converted on a third of their three-point attempts. The Green and White dominated inside, holding a 34-8 advantage in points in the paint. In addition, EMU’s 2-3 zone caused problems throughout the game for the Golden Eagles, forcing them into 15 turnovers on the night. The Eagles cashed in on the Golden Eagles’ miscues scoring 19 points off turnovers. The first quarter began with both teams struggling to find their offensive rhythm. The Eagles struck first on a layup from Webb, and from there the Golden Eagles couldn’t keep up with the Green and White offense. Throughout the entire quarter, Oral Roberts shot 2-of-12 from three-point land, and just 4-of-20 from the floor, allowing the Eagles to hold a 17-10 edge through 10 minutes of play. The second quarter saw more of the same, as the Golden Eagles failed to hit shots. At the end of the first half, Oral Roberts was 9-of-33 and 4-of-19 from long range. Defensively, the Eagles managed to force six turnovers in the second period, which led to eight points and kept the momentum in favor of the Green and White. Baldwin anchored the defense, grabbing eight rebounds in the first half. At half, the score stood at 36-23 with the Eagles ahead. Following the break, the Eagles opened the second half with a three from senior Sera Ozelci. However, the Golden Eagles began to find their shot throughout the quarter, but Morton continued to respond with baskets of her own, as well as setting up her teammates. Morton also closed out the third by hitting a three pointer at the buzzer. After three, the Eagles clung to a 59-45 lead. Oral Roberts continued to chip away at the Eagles’ lead, but the Green and White exploited their advantage in the paint. The Golden Eagles clawed their way back, however, as the EMU lead shrunk to 64-62 mid-way through the fourth. The Green and White responded with a quick 9-0 run following a steal off the inbounds by Morton, who then dropped in a layup and converted a free throw. Although Oral Roberts kept it close, the Eagles prevailed 77-69.

Sophomore Sasha Dailey recorded 12 while senior Chanise Baldwin registered her second consecutive double-double (11 points, 10 rebounds). Senior Sera Ozelci led the team, grabbing a career-high 11 caroms. The Eagles overcame an early 10-4 deficit behind strong 11-of-17 shooting to take a 26-17 lead through the opening period. Sweeney knocked down all four of her shots from the field while Morton and Ozelci hit from deep to fuel a 16-0 run by the Eagles. Eastern Michigan’s defensive effort stepped up in the second half, holding the Falcons to just nine points on 4-of-20 shooting. While Air Force struggled to score, EMU distanced themselves thanks to the dynamic play of Sweeney. Shooting 50 percent (17-of-34) from the floor, the Eagles took advantage of their size inside to the tune of a 20-2 edge on points scored in the paint. Holding the Falcons scoreless for the last three minutes of the half, the Green and White held a 41-26 lead at the break. The full-court pressure of the Eagles kept the Falcons in a frenzy in the early part of the third quarter. Air Force struggled to combat the tenacious backcourt pressure of the EMU guards, turning the ball over three times in the opening minutes. Air Force broke their scoring drought two minutes into the half, converting a jump shot but it did little to tame the Eagles momentum. Webb caught fire in the third quarter, scoring eight of her 15 points in the frame to help EMU push its lead to as many as 26. Behind Webb’s hot hand and another stout defensive sequence in which the Eagles held the Falcons scoreless for nearly three minutes, the Green and White held a 61-39 lead heading into the final quarter. Despite being outscored 20-11 in the final quarter, the Eagles held off a late push by the Falcons to take a 72-59 win.

USAF Academy, Colo.(EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team closed out the Air Force Classic, Dec. 5, with a 1-1 record after an 83-59 setback at the hands of Abilene Christian University. A season-high 18 turnovers paired with shooting struggles plagued the Eagles in the loss. Shooting 28.6 percent from the floor, the Eagles could not keep pace by Abilene Christian’s 43.3 field-goal percentage. The Wildcats shot 40.0 percent from deep, connecting on 14-of-35 attempts from distance while the Green and White converted just 8-of-21 shots from beyond the arc. Junior Cha Sweeney led the Eagles with 15 points while senior Sera Ozelci added 12 points on 4-of-6 shooting from long range. Senior Rachel Kehoe grabbed a season-high nine rebounds while junior Phillis Webb matched her with nine caroms of her own. For her efforts during the weekend, Chanise Baldwin was selected to the all-tournament team after averaging 9.5 points and 8.0 points in the two games. Alexis Mason led all scorers with a career-high 29 points, besting her previous record of 28, which was set last season vs. George Mason. She also broke her single-game three-pointers made and attempted records vs. Lamar last season, hitting 7-of-16 shots as the Wildcats set season highs with 14 treys and 3-point field goal percentage (.400). It was a battle from beyond the arc to start as Abilene Christian converted their first two shots from distance to take an early lead. Ozelci answered the Wildcats challenge, knocking down a three ball from the wing before Webb’s layup pulled the Eagles within one, 6-5. While the Eagles tried to gain their first lead of the contest, the Wildcats fed off of the energy of Mason’s hot start from beyond the arc. At the first media timeout, the Eagles found themselves trailing by five, 15-10. Over the next five minutes, the Eagles played the Wildcats nearly even but could not close the gap. After the opening period of play the Eagles found themselves trailing by six, 21-15. The Green and White created countless opportunities for themselves around the rim but could not convert, resulting in a three minute long scoreless drought to open the second quarter. Baldwin ended the drought from the charity stripe, converting a pair of free throws. Feeding off the energy of Baldwin’s hustle play, the Eagles defense forced an ACU turnover and capitalized via a three-pointer by Ozelci. Pulling within two on Ozelci’s triple, a plethora of miscues and untimely fouls allowed the Wildcats to extend their lead to nine. Despite the deficit, the Eagles did not back down, rallying behind a momentum shifting play by Morton. Driving to the basket, Morton earned the hoop and the harm for an old fashioned three-point play. On the Eagles’ next possession, Kehoe corralled an offensive rebound and put it in for two before Webb hit a layup to pull the Eagles within four, 31-27, with 2:15 to play in the quarter. Unfortunately for the Green and White, Abilene Christian knocked down 5-of-7 shots to close out the half, giving the Wildcats a 37-29 lead at the break. Back-to-back three-pointers by the Wildcats extended the Eagles’ deficit to 14 and forced Head Coach Tory Verdi to call a timeout less than two minutes into the third quarter. Abilene extended their lead to as many as 17 before the Green and White pieced together an 8-0 run over a four minute span. Shrinking the deficit to nine, the Eagles could not combat ACU’s hot-handed three-point shooting. Converting 7-of-11 attempts from beyond the arc in the quarter, ACU held a 58-40 lead through three quarters of play. The Eagles chipped away in the fourth quarter but ultimately could not overcome their own miscues, falling by a final score of 83-59.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (EMUEagles.com) – Behind a season-high 31 points by junior Cha Sweeney, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team came back from a late 10-point deficit to top Harvard University (4-5), 85-81, Dec. 8 in Lavietes Pavillion. The Eagles (5-2) withstood a few late runs while an all-around effort led by Sweeney fueled EMU past the Crimson. Sweeney shot 12-of-26 from the field and a perfect 6-of-6 from the free throw line on her way to eclipsing the 30-point mark for the first time this season. Fellow junior Phillis Webb added 18 points while falling one rebound short of a double-double. Junior Janay Morton also reached double figures, scoring 11 points to go along with six rebounds and four steals. The Eagles clean play throughout the game gave them a +14 turnover margin as the Green and White forced the Crimson into 20 miscues. Eastern made the most of Harvard’s turnovers, cashing them in for 22 points. After Harvard opened with an early lead, Morton evened the score at five with a three-pointer, but the shot from long-range did little to quiet the Crimson as Harvard scored six unanswered points to regain control. With his team trailing 11-6, Head Coach Tory Verdi called a timeout with hopes of cutting Harvard’s momentum. Out of the break, back-to-back three-pointers by senior Sera Ozelci reenergized the Eagles before sophomore Sasha Dailey scored an easy layup. Webb then intercepted a pass on the ensuing in-bounds. Swiping the pass at midcourt, Webb attacked the defense and laid it in for two, tying the score at 15. Looking as though Harvard would close the opening period with control, graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin stepped and imposed her will in the paint. Corralling an offensive rebound, Baldwin’s put back pulled the Eagles within three, 22-19, through one quarter of play. In the second quarter, foul trouble forced the Eagles to rely heavily on the play of their bench. Dailey, along with fellow sophomores Tori Easley and Micah Robinson, were up to the task, fueling the Green and White to their first lead of the game. A pullup jumper by Robinson was followed by an easy bucket by Webb, putting the Eagles in front for the first time, 27-26, with six minutes to play in the half. For the remainder of the second quarter, the Eagles kept it within one behind balanced scoring. Another triple by Ozelci and a jumper from the elbow by Easley made the score 33-32 in favor of the home team. Over the next three minutes of play however, the Eagles were outscored 8-4, allowing Harvard to take a 41-36 edge into halftime. Harvard extended their lead to double-digits, 50-40, early in the second half. With his team facing a 10-point deficit early, Head Coach Tory Verdi burned a timeout to regroup. The break in play proved to be just what the Eagles needed. Fueled by 11 points from Sweeney and four points by Webb, the Eagles went on a 15-0 run to take a 55-50 lead. The Crimson clawed their way back before the end of the quarter, regaining the lead with 20 seconds left in the period. Trailing 62-59 with 10 minutes to play, the Eagles offense stalled. Back-to-back empty possessions by the Green and White were answered by back-to-back buckets by the Crimson, extending their lead to eight, 67-59. Baskets by Webb, Dailey, Sweeney, and Morton allowed the Eagles to tie the game at 75 with two minutes to play. After a defensive stand by the Eagles that forced a shot-clock violation by the Crimson, Sweeney drove the lane and hit a floater to give EMU a 77-75 lead. From there, the Crimson pulled within a basket several times, but the Eagles closed it down from the free throw line, hitting 8-of-8 from the line, to secure the 85-81 win for Eastern Michigan.

WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. (EMUEagles.com) – Junior Janay Morton scored the 1,000th point of her career as the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team escaped with a 78-68 non-conference win over Monmouth University, Dec. 10, at The MAC. The Green and White led by as many as 18 before the Hawks (2-6) took the lead early in the fourth quarter only to have the Eagles regain the lead late in the period on their way to a 78-68 victory. Junior Phillis Webb recorded her first double-double of the season in the win, scoring 20 points while grabbing 11 rebounds while junior Cha Sweeney led all scorers with 26 points. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin added 10 rebounds in the win. Defense dictated play early, as the Eagles benefited from a steal by Morton, a block by Baldwin, and MU miscues over the first four minutes of play to take a 5-1 lead while holding Monmouth without a made basket through their first seven attempts. The Hawks scoring drought ended with 4:21 left in the opening period as Sarah Olson knocked down a three-pointer to cut EMU’s lead to 9-4 but the Eagles responded on their next offensive possession. Behind five points by Morton and high-pressure backcourt defense, the Eagles held a 16-9 edge through the first ten minutes of play. Eastern Michigan scored the first nine points of the second quarter, capped by a three-pointer by senior Sera Ozelci to extend their lead to 14. Like the first quarter, the Green and White held the Hawks scoreless for the first three minutes of the period but back-to-back three-pointers pulled Monmouth with eight points. Shooting 52.9 percent from the field in the quarter as a team, Sweeney’s balanced play fueled the Eagles to a 15-point halftime lead. Knocking down shot after shot, Sweeney slipped passes to Baldwin and senior Rachel Kehoe on pick-and-rolls before hitting a step-back three with time expiring to give the Green and White a 38-23 lead at the break. Seven third quarter three-pointers by Monmouth pulled the Hawks within one late in the third period. The Eagles maintained an eight-point cushion for most of the period, but a three-minute long scoreless drought allowed the Hawks to mount a comeback. The Eagles opened the final quarter of play clinging to a one point lead, 54-53. Monmouth’s hot shooting from the previous period carried over into the final frame as the Hawks gained their first lead of the game with 6:34 to play. MU went on to extend its lead to as many as seven before Webb took over. Scoring 10 of her 20 points in the final 4:32 of play, Webb highlighted a 9-0 run by the Eagles in which the Green and White reclaimed the lead. As Webb and the Eagles heated up, the Hawks faded allowing EMU to push its lead to double digits. Free throws down the stretch by Sweeney sealed the deal for the Eagles, as they claimed a 78-68 win. The Thursday night match up marked the return of EMU Assistant Coach Carly Thibault to her alma mater for the first time since graduating in 2013. A four-year member of the Monmouth women’s basketball team, Thibault was a prominent player from beyond the arc, finishing third in program history with 166 made three-pointers.

LIVONIA, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – With final exams in the rearview mirror, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team returned to the hardwood Friday, Dec. 18, to wrap up a five-game road trip. The Eagles (6-2) made the short trip to The Activities Center to take on Madonna University (3-8, 3-4 WHAC), where seven Eagles scored in double digits to overpower the Crusaders, 104-45. The balanced box score of the Eagles marked the first time since Nov. 30, 2013, that seven players recorded double-digit scoring efforts and believed to be just the second time in school history the feat has been accomplished. Additionally, the Eagles forced the Crusaders into 32 turnovers in the contest, the most forced miscues by EMU since Niagara committed 31, Dec. 28, 2011. Junior Janay Morton led the way, scoring a team-high 16 points while adding five assists. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin registered the third double-double of her EMU career with 15 points and a team-high 10 rebounds. Senior Sera Ozelci added 12 points on 4-of-8 shooting from beyond the arc while senior Rachel Kehoe and junior Cha Sweeney added 11 each and sophomore Tori Easley chipped in career-high 10. Eastern Michigan’s defensive pressure overwhelmed the Crusaders early on, holding them to just three points over the first four minutes of play. The stout defensive effort of the Green and White fueled a strong offensive start, paced by the play of Kehoe and Webb. Together the duo combined for eight of the Eagles’ first 10 points, as Eastern grabbed an early 10-3 lead. Following a media timeout midway through the quarter, Ozelci knocked down a baseline triple before Easley converted a pull-up jumper to extend EMU’s lead to 12, 15-3. Madonna hit a few shots late in the opening period but the Eagles controlled the game, 26-9, through 10 minutes of play. The Eagles kept their foot on the gas in the second quarter, forcing the Crusaders into nine turnovers while shooting nearly 58 percent from the floor. Kehoe and Baldwin led the charge in the second quarter, combining for 14 points and six rebounds, giving the Eagles a 62-19 lead at halftime. EMU’s offensive explosion of 36 points marked its most scored in a quarter this season while the 62-point first half performance ranks fourth in program history. Madonna hit a three to open the half, but a 13-2 run by the Eagles extended their lead to 53, 77-24, with five minutes to play in the third period. From that point forward, the Eagles outscored the Crusaders 10-0, to take a 63-point lead into the final quarter of play. The Eagles led by as many as 72 in the fourth quarter, before overpowering Madonna by a final score of 104-45. With the win, the Eagles finished 4-1 on a season-long five-game road trip.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team knocked off Washtenaw County rival, University of Michigan, for the first time since the 2012-13 season in a thrilling game at the Convocation Center, Dec. 23. The Eagles (8-2) trailed for 39 minutes before regaining the lead with one minute to play, upending Michigan (8-3) by a final score of 64-63. Junior Phillis Webb led EMU with 22 points while finishing just one rebound shy of the double-double. The other Eagles in double figures were graduate student Chanise Baldwin with 14 points and juniors Cha Sweeney and Janay Morton with 12 and 11 points, respectively. The Green and White out-shot the Maize and Blue in the contest 45 percent to 40 percent, while also converting 10-of-11 from the free throw line. Eastern also out-rebounded Michigan by a 37-35 margin, and forced 18 turnovers, which they turned into 20 points. The game got out to a blistering start with both teams shooting just about 50 percent from the floor in the first quarter. Neither team could take much of a lead in the first frame, with the largest only being six points which came right at the end of the first quarter on a buzzer beating layup. U of M took a 21-15 lead into the second period. U of M continued building the lead in the second quarter, holding EMU without a field goal until the 5:07 mark, while building a 32-19 lead in that span. The lead got as high as 16 before a pair of EMU three-pointers from Morton and senior Sera Ozelci helped get the lead down to as few as 12 with about two minutes left. The 12 points was the differential going into the half, with the Wolverines in front 43-31. The second half started off slowly for both squads, as the two combined for just five points in the first four minutes. At the media timeout, the score stood 50-36 in Michigan’s favor. The Eagles finally got the deficit down into single digits around the three minute mark on a Morton three pointer to make it a 50-41 game. It was the first time the lead was single digits since the seven minute mark of the second quarter. EMU could not get any closer in the third frame however, after another buzzer beating shot, U of M took a 57-45 lead into the final period. Out of the final break, EMU went on a 9-0 run in the first three minutes to cut the U of M lead down to three. Michigan stopped the bleeding with a three pointer with seven minutes to play, putting the lead back at six, but back-to-back buckets by Sweeney made it a one score game at the midway point. After both teams traded possessions for three minutes, a Sweeney layup tied the game at 60. Following a missed Wolverine jumper, the Eagles ran the floor, ultimately taking the lead on a putback by Baldwin. The layup by the Pontiac, Mich. native gave the Eagles their first lead since the seven minute mark in the first quarter. Michigan answered right back with a layup of their own, but EMU had the response with a Webb jumper to get the lead back, 64-62. With the shot clock off, U of M drew the foul, getting a chance to tie the game from the line. Converting just one-of-two, Webb corralled the rebound on the missed free throw and immediately drew a foul. With 5.5 seconds left on the clock, the Eagles inbounded the ball to Sweeney who dribbled out the clock, sealing Eastern Michigan’s comeback win, 64-63.

DETROIT, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team made the short trip into the Motor City for their final non-conference contest of the season Wednesday, Dec. 30, looking to secure their fifth consecutive victory. Taking on the Titans of the University of Detroit Mercy (4-7) in Calihan Hall, the Eagles (9-2) closed out the calendar year with an 85-68 road win. Junior Cha Sweeney scored a team-high 23, while filling in the box score with seven assists, seven rebounds, and four steals. Sophomore Sasha Dailey (Toledo, Ohio) added a season-high 18 points and junior Janay Morton scored 16, while junior Phillis Webb and graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin chipped in 14 and 10 points, respectively. Eastern Michigan outshot the Titans in every aspect of the game, converting 53.1 percent (34-of-64) of its shots from the field compared to Detroit’s 39.3 field goal percentage (22-of-56). Additionally, the Eagles held the upper hand from long range (36.0 to 33.3 percent) and the charity stripe (80.0 to 75.0 percent). Back-to-back-to-back three-pointers by Morton put the Eagles in front 9-0 four minutes into the contest, and set the pace for a majority of the first quarter. Dailey knocked down a shot just inside the three-point arc before Detroit broke their scoring drought, with 3:20 left on the clock. Another three by Morton and six points by Dailey lifted the Eagles to a 20-8 lead after the opening frame. With the shot clock winding down, a baseline jumper by Sweeney kick started a 12-4 run by the Green and White in the opening minutes of the second quarter. Following a triple by the Titans, the Eagles turned up the pressure defensively. A pair of steals in the back court by Sweeney resulted in easy buckets for Dailey and Baldwin as Eastern Michigan extended their lead to 20 with just under three minutes remaining in the half. EMU closed out the half on a 9-3 run, capped by a baseline three-pointer by Sweeney, to take a 47-21 lead into halftime. The Eagles shot an astonishing 63.3 percent from the floor over the first 20 minutes of play, highlighted by a 7-of-14 showing from beyond the arc. Meanwhile, the tenacious defense of the Green and White held the Titans to 24 percent shooting from the field. Detroit’s shooting woes of the first half fell by the wayside in the second half as the Titans drained four three-pointers in the first four minutes of the third quarter. Despite a valiant effort by UDM to cut into their lead, the Eagles stood strong. Morton and Webb scored early on before Sweeney turned defense into offense. Taking advantage of the Titans youth at point guard, Sweeney’s on-ball defense flustered Detroit forcing a pair of miscues and cashing them in for points, giving the Eagles a 60-33 lead midway through the quarter. Over the next five minutes of the period, the Titans outscored the Eagles 18-11, cutting EMU’s lead to 20, 71-51, through three quarters of play. The Titans pulled within 15 several times in the final frame but the Eagles kept their cool, hanging on for an 85-68 victory.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team opened Mid-American Conference play with its sixth consecutive victory, 67-56, over the University at Buffalo, Saturday Jan.2, inside the Convocation Center. Facing off against the conference’s top defense, the Eagles (10-2, 1-0 MAC) led by as many as 16 before coming away with an 11-point win.

Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin chipped in five points while leading the Green and White with nine rebounds. Eastern benefited from an 18-5 advantage in points off turnovers as Buffalo committed 21 turnovers in the game compared to 11 miscues by the Eagles. A relentless effort by the Bulls however, kept them in the game as UB used 20 offensive rebounds to score 23 second chance points. The Bulls (8-4, 0-1 MAC) used a series of offensive rebounds to take an early lead before a 6-2 run by the Eagles gave EMU a 6-4 edge with 6:18 to play in the opening frame. Unfortunately for the Green and White, Joanna Smith led the Bulls’ charge as EMU’s offense stalled, scoring seven points of UB’s 13 points. Held scoreless for more than six minutes, the Eagles found themselves trailing by five, 13-8, after one quarter of play. In the second period, the Eagles forced Smith to the bench leaving the Bulls without their leading scorer for the remainder of the half. As Buffalo searched for offense, the Eagles chipped away at the deficit, pulling within two with 6:30 to play. Scooping up an errant pass near half court with the shot clock winding down, Sweeney attacked a double team and tossed up a desperation heave. Fouled on the shot, Sweeney converted three shots from the line to give the Eagles a 16-15 lead. EMU extended its lead to 18-15 before a three-pointer by Stephanie Reid tied the game at 18 and ended a seven-minute scoring drought for the Bulls, with 3:10 to play in the period. Looking as though the Eagles would head into the half with a four point lead, sophomore Sasha Dailey snagged a rebound and immediately passed to Sweeney. Moving down the court with just 4.2 seconds left on the clock, Sweeney dished to senior Sera Ozelci for a three-pointer at the buzzer. The triple by the Turkish sharpshooter gave EMU a 28-21 lead at the midway point. The Eagles opened the second half with seven points by Sweeney before Buffalo knocked down their first bucket with 7:20 left in the frame. Inconsistent scoring paired with repeated struggles to break the Eagles’ full court press shutdown the Bulls as Eastern extended their lead to as many as 16. In front 48-34 heading into the final quarter of play, EMU quickly saw its lead shrink to nine as the Bulls rattled off seven unanswered points to force Head Coach Tory Verdi to burn a timeout with 7:21 left on the clock. The brief regrouping session did little to tame the Bulls as Karin Moss’ jumper pulled them within three, 52-49 with just under five minutes to play. Returning to the floor, the Eagles pushed their lead to five as Sweeney sank a floater on a drive to the hoop, ending a four-minute stretch in which Eastern was held without a basket. The bucket by the Toledo, Ohio native reenergized the Green and White as backto-back makes by Morton and Sweeney gave the Eagles a six-point cushion with 3:41 left. After Buffalo’s Karin Moss hit her second three-pointer of the game, the Eagles closed out the game on a 10-2 run to escape with a 67-56 conference-opening victory.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team’s six-game winning streak came to an end in overtime Wednesday, Jan. 6, as the Eagles dropped a Mid-American Conference contest at the Convocation Center to the University of Akron, 68-65. Junior Phillis Webb recorded her second double-double of the season, scoring 16 points to go along with a career-high 15 rebounds. Junior Cha Sweeney led the Eagles in scoring with 20 points while adding six rebounds and five assists. Eastern Michigan’s defense controlled the majority of the first period, while the helping hand of Morton allowed the Eagles to take control early. Morton dished out assists to Webb and senior Rachel Kehoe before knocking down a pull-up jumper to give the Green and White an 8-2 lead. Akron burned an early timeout after senior Sera Ozelci hit a three-pointer from the wing to extend EMU’s edge to nine, 11-2. The game’s first timeout did little to cool off the Eagles as the team returned to the floor and forced Akron into a shot clock violation on its first trip down the floor. EMU’s disruptive defensive pressure forced another timeout moments later, with the score 15-4 in favor of the Green and White. The Zips settled into a groove offensively late in the first quarter, closing the frame on a 7-3 run. Despite the push by the visitors, the score stood in favor of the Eagles, 18-11, after the first 10 minutes of play. After the Eagles extended their lead to as many as 12, the Zips rattled off 11 unanswered points to pull within one, 23-22, with two and a half minutes left in the half. Sweeney ended the Zips’ run with a jumper before her three-pointer just before the buzzer sent Eastern Michigan into the locker room in front, 28-22. Seven third quarter turnovers by the Eagles allowed Akron to take its first lead of the game (34-32) with 4:45 to play in the period. The Zips lead did not last long however as Morton hit from long range before sophomore Sasha Dailey swiped a pass near half court and pulled up for a jumper in transition to even the score at 37. Sophomore Tori Easley scored the final basket of the quarter, giving EMU a 39-38 lead through 30 minutes of play. Despite carrying a lead into the final quarter, the Eagles trailed by five, 51-46, after a three-pointer by Akron’s Hannah Plybon with 3:01 left on the clock. A jumper by Dailey sparked the Eagles with 2:10 to play as Sweeney hit a free throw and a floater to level the score at 51 with under a minute left in the game. Akron converted 1-of-2 from the free throw line after drawing a foul to take a one-point advantage but Webb knocked down two from the line to give the home team a 53-52 lead with 29 seconds on the clock. With the Zips searching for the final shot of the game, Dailey stepped in and swiped a pass near the three-point arc and went coast-to-coast for the layup, giving the Eagles a 55-52 lead. Akron took a timeout, advancing the ball to half court, with 3.2 ticks remaining. On the inbounds, the Zips ultimately skipped a pass across the baseline to Anita Brown who was spotting up on the three-point line. Controlling the pass cleanly, Brown’s three-pointer swished through the net as the buzzer sounded, forcing overtime. In extra time, a bucket by Webb gave the Eagles an early edge but Akron sat in the driver’s seat, 67-62, with 26 seconds remaining. Trailing by five with 13 seconds to play, Sweeney hit a triple to pull EMU within two, 67-65. The Zips failed to convert free throws after Ozelci fouled, giving the Eagles another chance to even the ledger. Driving down the lane, Morton split a pair of defenders and put up a floater but it bounced off the back iron, only to be pulled down by the Zips. Fortunately for the Green and White, Akron’s struggles at the line continued as Plybon split a pair from the charity stripe, giving the Eagles on last shot to force a second overtime. Dribbling up the court, Morton crossed over her defender to create a shot for the Eagles the last second heave fell short as the Eagles fell 68-65.

DEKALB, Ill. (EMUEagles.com) – The #MACtion scriptwriters were at it again Saturday, Jan. 9, as Northern Illinois and Eastern Michigan battled in DeKalb. Janay Morton forced overtime with two free throws and vaulted the Eagles to an overtime victory, 87-80. Game-tying free throws by EMU with 57 seconds left, followed by a go-ahead layup with 31 seconds left, put Courtney Woods in a position to drain a go-ahead three-pointer with 10 seconds left on the clock, 70-69. After an Eastern Michigan (11-3, 2-1 MAC) timeout with 7.1 seconds left, the Eagles’ leading scorer Cha Sweeney drove to the basket and attempted a layup but a fingertip block by Ally Lehman put the ball of the rim and into the hands of Kelly Smith with three seconds left. Hitting one free throw to put NIU (8-6, 1-2 MAC) on top by two, 71-69, EMU was forced to inbound the ball with 2.8 seconds left and never had the chance as a deadball foul on Lehman put Morton on the line for two free throws, forcing overtime, 71-71, and fouling out Lehman in the process. Eastern Michigan would outscore the Huskies 16-9 in overtime to take their first game in DeKalb since 2013, 87-80. NIU was within five points with 1:19 left on the clock but a 10-for-13 free throw clip by EMU in overtime sealed the Eagles second conference win. Sweeney led the Eagles with 28 points on the day, while senior Chanise Baldwin just missed a doubledouble, notching 17 points and eight rebounds. Junior Phillis Webb also nearly had a double-double, posting 12 points and nine rebounds, while Morton chipped in 14 points, including the two free throws that forced overtime. The final double-digit scorer for the Green and White was sophomore Sasha Dailey with 14. NIU took control of the game early, nailing a jumper within the opening 30 seconds. A three from Webb briefly gave the Eagles the lead, but the Huskies promptly responded with a three of their own. NIU raced out to an early lead, with Sweeney stopping the run and making the score 9-5 with seven minutes left in the opening frame.

The Huskies responded, however, and the teams remained tied, 20-20, as the first quarter expired. The Huskies gained control early in the second quarter, leading 26-22 with seven minutes to go. A Sweeney jumper put the Eagles behind by one, and then a free throw from Baldwin tied the game at 29 apiece.

At half, the score stood at 37-32, with the Huskies leading. NIU was the first to score out of the break, increasing their lead to 39-32. Senior Rachel Kehoe (St. Clair, Mich. – St. Clair) lifted the lid for the Eagles in the quarter, making the score 41-34. Baldwin continued getting to the line, converting 1-of-2 at the line to pull the Eagles within six, 43-37. After nice back-to-back layups from Sweeney gave the Eagles a quick four points, the Eagles still trailed, 48-41, with 3:27 to go in the third. After a three from Morton, the Brooklyn Park, Minn. native then nabbed a quick steal, which Dailey then turned into points on a layup.

Sweeney ended the third with a jumper just before the buzzer, making the score 52-48 going into the final quarter of play.

Following a technical foul on Webb, the Huskies converted both free throws and followed with a quick jumper, putting them ahead by nine. Baldwin then took over down low, bullying her way to three consecutive layups and giving the Eagles offensive momentum. Sweeney followed up with another layup of her own, dropping NIU’s lead to just one. After a bucket for NIU, Sweeney responded with one of her own, keeping the NIU lead at one. The team’s continued trading baskets, with the Huskies ahead 67-64 with one minute remaining. Morton then drove to the hoop, scoring and getting fouled in the process. After sinking the free throw, the teams were tied at 67. Dailey then stole a Huskies pass and converted the layup, giving the Eagles a 69-67 lead with 26 seconds to play. The Huskies then converted a three, taking the lead, 70-69, and giving the Eagles 8 seconds to respond. With their possession, the Eagles went to Sweeney, who barely missed on a layup. After NIU converted one-of-two free throws on the other end, the Huskies fouled Morton on the following possession, giving her a chance to tie it up at the line.

Senior Rachel Kehoe contributed as well with a stat line of six points and 10 rebounds, many of which came at important points in the game. In total, the Eagles’ 60 caroms were the most the Green and White have corralled this season and highest total since EMU’s 2014-15 season opener against Kent State Tuscarawas. Both senior Sera Ozelci and junior Cha Sweeney had nine points apiece, with Sweeney posting five rebounds and four assists. Finally, sophomore Sasha Dailey had four key steals throughout the game and was disruptive on the defensive end. The first quarter got off to a slow start, as both teams came up empty on a few consecutive possessions. Webb lifted the lid for the Eagles before a three from Ohio (12-3, 4-0 MAC) put the Bobcats ahead 3-2. With 6:20 left in the period, a three from Ozelci tied the game at five apiece, after which another three from Webb put the Eagles up 8-7 with 5:30 to play. At the media break, the teams were knotted at eight apiece. Coming out of the timeout, Ozelci drained another three before Dailey stole a Bobcat pass and converted a layup to put the Green and White ahead 13-8. The Eagles then raced to a 17-10 lead on back-to-back baskets from Webb. At the end of the first, EMU led the Bobcats, 19-14. Similar to the first, both teams could not get the offense in rhythm within the opening minutes of the quarter. The Bobcats offense then rattled off two quick baskets to tie the game back up at 19. A Baldwin layup following an offensive rebound then put the Green and White back on top by two. Neither team could pull away, however, as the Eagles and Bobcats continued trading baskets throughout the quarter. With 3:30 left in the half, the score stood at 24-23 in favor of the Bobcats. A Sweeney layup got EMU back on track, but the team still trailed by one, 26-25, with two minutes left in the half. Two clutch free throws from Kehoe with under a minute to go tied the game at 29, after which she picked up a big rebound to give the Eagles an opportunity to retake the lead heading into halftime. On a dish from Sweeney, Kehoe scored yet again to give EMU a 31-29 lead heading into the break. Coming out of the locker rooms, the Bobcats quickly retook the lead with a three. The Green and White answered with a three of their own, as Ozelci nailed her third of the game to put EMU back up, 34-32. Kehoe continued making impactful plays, as she drew a charge that led to a Webb bucket on the other end. At the seven minute mark, EMU held a 37-32 lead. A huge three from Morton gave the Green and White a six point lead, 40-34, with just over five minutes to go in the third. A pair at the line from Sweeney then gave EMU their largest lead of the game at eight. The Bobcat offense quickly roared back and cut the Eagle lead down to just two, 42-40. With one minute to go in the quarter, Sweeney hit a shot from downtown to retake the lead, 47-44. A triple from OU shortly after tied the game back up at 47 before a free throw from Webb made the score 48-47 in favor of EMU. Heading into the final quarter of play, EMU clung to a one point lead. Ohio opened the quarter with a quick three and a floater to retake the lead, 52-48. The Eagles responded with two quick baskets of their own to tie the game at 52 apiece. Webb then recorded back-to-back baskets to take a 56-52 lead before OU quickly tied it up once again. After an 11-0 run from the Bobcats to make the score 63-56 with 4:19 remaining, the Eagles called a timeout. Baldwin nailed key free throws to bring EMU back within seven, 65-58, as the clock approached two minutes to play. Dailey then picked up an offensive rebound on her own shot and put it back to bring the Eagles within five. However, the EMU offense could not get into a rhythm in the closing minutes of the game, and the Eagles fell by a final score of 71-64.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team ground out a 72-51 home Mid-American Conference victory over Kent State University Saturday, Jan. 16, at the Convocation Center. Although the game was close through three quarters, the Green and White (12-4, 3-2 MAC) pulled away in the final frame, outscoring the Golden Flashes (3-12, 0-5 MAC) 23-6 over the final 10 minutes. Juniors Janay Morton and Phillis Webb paced the Eagles, scoring 19 and 17 points, respectively. Morton was 3-of-5 from deep, while Webb also pulled down five rebounds and had four steals. Senior Chanise Baldwin and sophomore Sasha Dailey also had double digit scoring efforts, with Baldwin notching 12 and Dailey finishing with 10. As a team, the Eagles shot 45.8 percent from the floor while the Golden Flashes finished with a shooting percentage of 37.5. The Green and White zone defense caused trouble for Kent State throughout the game, as KSU had 22 turnovers, 10 of which resulted in EMU steals. EMU, on the other hand, only had 11 turnovers on the evening. Finally, Eastern also out-rebounded Kent State, 34-31, grabbing 11 offensive boards in the process. Morton got the Eagles on the board first with an early three, and Webb followed shortly after with a jumper of her own. Webb continued scoring for the Green and White, downing another long two for an 8-5 lead. After a missed jumper from junior Cha Sweeney, senior Rachel Kehoe picked up the board and converted a nice layup. EMU’s hot start continued with another three from Morton, and at the first media timeout, the score stood at 12-5 in favor of the Eagles. After a couple of EMU turnovers, Kent State closed the gap, bringing the score to 12-8. The Eagles quickly regain their lead after a pair at the line from Baldwin and a Dailey jumper made it 16-8. Another three from Morton gave the Green and White a 10-point lead with 40 seconds to go in the quarter. At the end of the first, EMU maintained a 22-10 lead over the Golden Flashes. Kent State came back with a few baskets of their own to bring the score to 22-17 with 7:30 to go in the half. The Golden Flashes’ full-court press began to cause the Eagles some problems, leading to an EMU timeout with 6:14 to go. A Dailey jumper got the team back on track, increasing their lead to five. Both offenses could not get going mid-way through the quarter, and the score remained at 25-21 in favor of EMU with four minutes to play before half. Senior Sera Ozelci then got on the board with a shot from outside the arc, increasing the Green and White lead back to seven. After KSU brought the lead down to three, Morton drove to the hoop, getting fouled while sinking a layup. Although she missed the free throw, the Eagle lead increased back to five. After a pair from the line by Kent State, Dailey drove the lane, converting a fast-break layup. At half, EMU led the Golden Flashes, 34-30. Kehoe opened the second half with a pair from the line, after which Morton drove the lane and sunk a layup in traffic. Like the second half, both teams could not get into an offensive rhythm, with the score being 40-36 at the halfway mark of the quarter. A KSU three brought the Golden Flashes within one, and a layup on the next possession gave Kent State the lead. The Eagles retook the lead, 42-41, on a pair from the line by Baldwin, and then extended it on two more from Webb. A buzzer beater from Webb left the score at 49-45 going into the final quarter. The Eagles opened the final quarter with back-to-back jumpers from Dailey to open up an eight point lead, 53-45. Webb, continuing her solid game, knocked down a short jumper to push the Eagle lead to double digits. With seven minutes to play, EMU led 56-45. The Green and White offense continued to click, taking a 62-47 lead at the five-minute mark after back-to-back Baldwin layups. With three minutes remaining in the game, EMU maintained a 66-47 lead after a Morton drive and layup. The Eagles then began burning clock, assisted by multiple offensive rebounds to keep possession. A late bucket from senior KaBria Walker gave EMU a 72-49 lead as the clock continued running down. Despite an early push from the Golden Flashes, the Eagles came out on top, 72-51.

MUNCIE, Ind. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team could not keep pace with Mid-American Conference West Division leader Ball State University Wednesday, Jan. 20, at Worthen Arena. A season-high 21 turnovers and field goal woes led to the Eagles (12-5, 3-3 MAC) demise, as the Cardinals (13-4, 5-1 MAC) earned a 76-54 win. Junior Janay Morton scored a team-high 23 points on 8-of-15 shooting, including converting 5-of-9 shots from long range. Morton’s five triples marked the most she’s made this season. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin added 10 points, as the only other Eagle to reach double figures in the loss. Senior Rachel Kehoe fell one rebound shy of her career-high, grabbing a team-best 12 boards. Nathalie Fontaine and Jill Morrison paved the way for Ball State, scoring 27 and 21 points, respectively. Fontaine converted 10-of-14 shots from the floor while Morrison’s seven three-pointers stretched the EMU defense. Shooting struggles paired with six first quarter turnovers hindered the Eagles in the opening quarter. While defense controlled the game for both teams early on, Ball State broke the seal first as Moriah Monaco’s triple gave the home team the edge. Eastern was held scoreless for nearly six minutes before a late three-pointer by Morton ended the quarter with Ball State in front, 19-8. The Cardinals extended their lead to as many as 15 before Morton and Webb heated up from three. As the Brooklyn Park, Minn. duo knocked down shots from deep, Eastern Michigan’s defense began to lock in, forcing the Cardinals into timely turnovers. The empty possessions by Ball State allowed the Eagles to pull within eight, 30-22, at the media timeout. Over the next four minutes, the Eagles held the Cardinals to just five points but failed to make a basket themselves. Plagued by a 25.8 field goal percentage, the Green and White trailed 35-22 at halftime. The Eagles scored the first four points of the second half to pull within single digits as Baldwin put one in off the glass and knocked down the Green and White’s first two free throw attempts of the game. After Ball State pushed its lead back to double digits, junior Cha Sweeney kicked to senior Sera Ozelci. Spotting up on the three-point line, Ozelci drilled the baseline three to pull the Eagles within eight once again. For the remainder of the period, the Eagles momentum was stalled by the hot-shooting of the Cardinals as they carried a 53-38 lead into the final frame. Holding the Cardinals scoreless for the first five minutes of the quarter, the Eagles scored seven straight points behind the strong play of Morton, to cut the deficit to eight before Ball State knocked down its first shot of the quarter. That was as close as the Eagles would get however, as the Cardinals lights-out shooting late, downed the Green and White, 76-54.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team used an early lead to top the University of Toledo, 59-41, in the Convocation Center, Jan. 23. The Eagles (13-5, 4-3 MAC) led by as many as 20 on their way to an 18-point win over the Rockets (9-9, 4-3 MAC). Junior Janay Morton posted her fourth 20-point performance of the season, while narrowly missing a double-double. Morton led all scorers with 23 points on 6-of-11 shooting, including 5-of-7 from three-point range, while also grabbing a game-high nine rebounds to go along with six steals and three assists. Juniors Cha Sweeney and Phillis Webb added 14 and nine points, respectively. Sweeney also registered a team-best four assists while Webb added nine rebounds. Morton fueled the Eagles in the early goings, knocking down a pair of triples before handing out an assist to lead the Green and White to an 8-2 lead. A three-point play by Sweeney followed by a rejection by senior Rachel Kehoe, gave EMU an 11-4 edge with 4:58 to play. Eastern extended its lead to as many as 14 behind the defensive play of graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin. A pair of swipes on the defensive end by Baldwin were cashed in for five points on the other end. Morton sank a layup in transition before sophomore Sasha Dailey converted an old-fashioned three-point play. Baldwin’s stifling defense helped the Eagles hold the Rockets scoreless for more than six minutes, giving them an 18-6 lead through one quarter of play. Toledo knocked down the first basket of the second frame but the Eagles came right back. Grabbing a board, Baldwin sent the Eagles running in transition. The 6-foot-3 forward ran the break before dishing to senior Sera Ozelci who sent an extra pass to Morton in the corner. Spotting up for the three-ball, Morton drained the long-range shot, pushing EMU’s lead to 15. Coming out of halftime in front 33-20, the Eagles saw their lead shrink to single digits as back-to-back-to-back baskets by the Rockets forced an EMU timeout with 8:20 to play. As Toledo continued to chip away, Baldwin, Sweeney, and Morton scored, giving the Eagles with an 11-point cushion midway through the third period. Trading baskets for the remainder of the period, Eastern eventually carried a nine-point lead into the final quarter. The Eagles outscored the Rockets 17-8 over the last 10 minutes of play to escape with a 59-41 win. Prior to tip, the Eagles were recognized for their ‘Sweet Sixteen’ run in the WNIT last season. Banners were unveiled in the rafters, commemorating the accomplishments of the 2014-15 campaign.

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team mounted a late comeback but fell short on the road, Jan. 27, against Bowling Green State University. The Falcons (8-9, 4-4 MAC) led by as many 16 before the Eagles (13-6, 4-4 MAC) pulled within a score with 37 seconds to play. However, Eastern’s comeback fell short as Bowling Green scored the last four points of the game to sending EMU home with a 67-63 loss. Junior Sheyna Deans had a career night, falling one rebound shy of her first double-double. Deans scored a career-high 10 points while grabbing a career-best nine boards in addition to three steals. Junior Cha Sweeney led the Eagles with 15 points while fellow juniors Phillis Webb and Janay Morton added 11 and 10 points, respectively. Bowling Green broke the seal with an early three-pointer before senior Sera Ozelci knocked down a triple for the Eagles to level the score at three early on. After a drive and kick from Morton that resulted in a bucket by senior Rachel Kehoe (St. Clair, Mich.-St. Clair), the Green and White held a one-point lead. EMU’s slim cushion only lasted temporarily as the Falcons used a 7-2 run to take an 11-7 lead at the first media timeout. Out of the break, an early basket by BGSU extended their lead to 13-7 before the Eagles answered the call. A hustle play by sophomore Sasha Dailey re-energized the Green and White, ultimately resulting in a wide open layup for Webb. From there, a steal by Dailey and free throws by graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin evened the score at 13 with a minute left in the opening period. The Falcons added a free throw and a jumper before the quarter came to a close to take a 16-13 lead into the second frame. Eastern mustered just 11 points in the second quarter, nine of which came courtesy of Sweeney, as Bowling Green increased their lead to as many as 13 before carrying a 36-24 advantage into halftime. The Eagles shot just 25.7 percent from the field over the first 20 minutes of play while the Falcons knocked down 61.9 percent of their shots, including 7-of-11 three-point attempts. Ozelci opened the second half with a triple, only to have Bowling Green knock down back-to-back threes to extend their lead to 15 before Deans turned the tide in favor of the Eagles. An offensive rebound and a put back by the Mt. Clemens, Mich. product were followed by a diving rebound and a charge, pulling the Eagles within 10, 42-32, midway through the third quarter. Deans continued her strong play on both ends of the floor over the next five minutes, scoring four points and swiping a BGSU pass to fuel the Eagles’ comeback effort. Baldwin added points from the charity stripe, cutting the deficit to six, 48-42, heading into the final frame. Plagued by a slow start, the Eagles found themselves down by 12 with three minutes to play. Despite the deficit, the Eagles continued to rally around the play of Deans and Sweeney, to pull within six with 1:18 to play. From there, a three-pointer by Morton and baskets by Sweeney and Deans brought the Eagles within a basket with 37 ticks left on the clock. Unfortunately for the Green and White, the Falcons converted from the free throw line before sealing it with a layup just before time expired to hand the Eagles a 67-63 setback.

AKRON, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team fell in its Mid-American Conference cross-divisional tilt with the University of Akron, 75-72, Saturday, Jan. 30, at James A. Rhodes Arena. EMU (13-7, 4-5 MAC) led by as many as 12 points with 7:49 to play in the third quarter, but a 19-4 Akron run over a six minute span propelled the Zips (11-9, 5-4 MAC) back in front to begin the fourth quarter. In the final frame, UA made 7-of-12 from the floor, but EMU still had a shot down the stretch thanks in part to poor free throw shooting by the home team. Down six with 26 seconds to play, junior Janay Morton drilled her six three-pointer to cut it to three at 73-70. Anita Brown, who finished with a game-high 27, made both free throws to push it back up to five. Junior Cha Sweeney quickly sprinted ahead and was fouled with six seconds still showing. Sweeney hit both but Akron threw over the top of the EMU defense and was fouled again with Brown going to the stripe. Luckily, for EMU she missed both but the Eagles’ half court heave as time expired was blocked to seal the UA victory. Sweeney finished with a team-high 23 points on 7-of-23 shooting while Morton hit a season-best six threes for 19 points in the loss. Sheyna Deans for the second consecutive game posted a career-best in points with 11, but EMU shot just 38.5 percent (26-of-65) for the contest. Behind Brown’s 27, Hannah Plybon finished with a season-best 24 points for the Zips who swept the season series from the Eagles in 2015-16. The contest featured five ties and seven lead changes with Eastern Michigan owning its biggest lead, 48-36, with 7:49 left in the third quarter. Akron posted its largest margin in the game, six points, with 26 seconds remaining in the tilt. In total, the Green and White turned the ball over 15 times leading to 21 points off turnovers. Eastern Michigan started off the game strong making a trio of three pointers to jump out to an 11-8 advantage. However, Akron tied the contest following a three pointer by Megan Sefcik at the 2:28 mark of the first quarter. The Eagles closed out the period with a 10-5 run to reclaim a 23-18 lead. Akron began a gradual climb to even the affair with Eastern Michigan and eventually regained the lead, 32-30, after a long ball from Plybon with 3:03 left in the first half. With 2:08 left on the clock, the score was even 34-34 before the Eagles closed out the initial stanza on a 7-0 run to head into intermission with a 41-34 lead. Eastern Michigan came out strong in the second half pushing its lead to double digits, 48-36, after a pair of free throws from Sweeney at the 7:49 mark. Nevertheless, Akron ceased the momentum using a 19-4 spurt spearheaded by nine and eight points, respectively, from Brown and Plybon to take a 55-52 advantage into the final stanza. The two teams traded baskets over the first three minutes of the fourth quarter until Eastern Michigan tied the game at 60 and went ahead for the final time, 63-60, on a triple from Morton at the 5:29 mark. After reclaiming the lead on a lay-up from Brown with four minutes left, Akron held on all the way to the end.

(EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team (13-8, 4-6 MAC) dropped a heartbreaker, 66-65, against Central Michigan University (14-7, 8-2 MAC), Feb. 3 at the Convocation Center in Mid-American Conference play. Despite a career day from junior Sheyna Deans, the EMU offense was unable to convert opportunities within the final minute to secure the victory.

Additionally, junior Cha Sweeney led the EMU offense, dropping 23 points and picking up a season-high eight rebounds. The final Eagle in double digits was graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin with 14 points, as well as six boards, and four blocks.

On the other hand, EMU only gave the ball away seven times on the night. The Green and White also held a 14-2 advantage in fast break points, and edged CMU in points off of turnovers by a 23-4 margin. Central opened the scoring on the day, taking an early 5-0 lead after a pair of layups and a free throw. The EMU offense could not find a rhythm through the opening minutes, as the Chips increased their lead to 9-0 with 6:07 to go in the first frame. Junior Phillis Webb got the Eagles on the board with a layup, after which Sweeney drained a long-ball to make the score 9-5. Following a steal, Sweeney managed to drive the hoop and convert an acrobatic layup while being fouled in the process. After making the free throw, the score stood at 11-10 in favor of CMU. Closing in on the final minute of the quarter, the Chippewas maintained a five-point lead, 15-10. At the end of the first, EMU trailed Central, 15-10. Deans grabbed an offensive rebound and knocked down a jumper to bring the score to 15-12 within the opening minute of the second quarter. The Eagles then scored a quick seven points to take the lead, 19-18, at the 5:45 mark. With the Green and White defense clamping down, the Chips went scoreless for nearly four minutes. A three from CMU tied it up at 21 apiece, but Eastern quickly responded with a pair of baskets to put the score at 25-21. Neither team could score efficiently down the stretch, and at half, the Eagles maintained a 25-22 lead. Both teams came out of the break firing, as the score increased to 31-28 with 7:30 left in the quarter. A three from Sweeney bumped the lead to 34-28 in favor of the Green and White. A pair of steals resulted in some fast break offense for the Eagles, who raced to a 10-point lead, 38-28, with 5:50 to go in the third. Defense was the name of the game for the Eagles, as the Chips had 18 turnovers through this point in the game. The teams then continued trading baskets, and at the 2:38 mark, EMU led 44-39. An and-one from Baldwin pushed the Eagles ahead 47-39, but the Chips mounted a short run to tie the game at 47. A layup by Central forced EMU to call a timeout after falling behind, 49-47. Going into the final quarter of play the Eagles trailed, 52-49. The Chippewas stretched their lead to seven, 56-49, with eight minutes to go. A steal and layup from Deans brought the Eagles back within seven, and another quick basket made the score 58-53. Deans then sunk two from the line, and Sweeney nailed another three, reducing the Central lead to 61-58. Another long-ball from Sweeney tied the game up at 61 apiece, before a pair at the line from Deans gave EMU the lead, 63-61, with 4:19 left. However, the Chips retook the lead, 66-65, with just under two minutes to play. A critical steal by junior Janay Morton gave the Eagles an opportunity to retake the lead with 25 seconds left on the clock. With that turnover, the Green and White forced the Chips to their most turnovers so far this season. After a foul against Central, Sweeney was sent to the line with an opportunity to tie or take the lead. However, both shots rattled on the rim and bounced out. After CMU stepped out of bounds, Eastern had one final opportunity to retake the lead. A desperation layup from Baldwin was not enough, however, as the Chips held on for a 66-65 victory.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – In a double-overtime thriller, the Eastern Michigan University (14-8, 5-6 MAC) women’s basketball team emerged victorious, 70-66, over Western Michigan University (13-10, 5-6 MAC) at the Convocation Center, Feb. 6. Clutch free throws down the stretch were the difference marker in securing the victory for the Eagles. The Eagles were paced by junior Cha Sweeney (Toledo, Ohio – Rogers) with 21 points, six rebounds, and five assists. Four other EMU players also hit double digits, with junior Janay Morton notching 12 points and seven boards. Fellow junior Sheyna Deans also knocked down 12, while junior Phillis Webb contributed 11. Rounding out the double-digit scorers was senior Chanise Baldwin with 10 points and six boards. As a team, the Green and White shot 25-of-66 from the floor, while also dominating on the boards. EMU posted 54 total rebounds, 15 of them offensive, in comparison to Western’s 43. The EMU defense was vital down the stretch especially, as the Eagles forced the Broncos into 21 turnovers throughout the game. EMU did a much better job taking care of the ball, as the squad only gave it away 12 times. Starting with the ball on offense, Deans gave the Eagles their first points of the game in her first career start. A pair of solid defensive possessions led to a bucket on the other end, as the Eagles jumped ahead, 6-2. Taking an early 10-2 lead, the Broncos were forced to call a timeout with six minutes left in the first quarter. The EMU defense continued causing problems for the Broncos, holding them to 2-of-10 shooting early on. However, the offense cooled down a bit in the closing minutes of the quarter, as the lead shrunk to 13-8. After a quarter of play, the Eagles held a 15-10 lead. After a quick bucket to take a seven-point lead, the Broncos rattled off two straight baskets to bring the score to 17-14. A nice pass from Morton to Webb led to a layup and a foul, giving the Eagles some offensive momentum. However, Western then mounted a small run to reduce the lead to three at 21-18. A layup from Morton put the lead back to five, 23-18, with three minutes to go until halftime. A clutch three from Sweeney made the score 26-21 before a layup by Western cut it again to three. Going into the locker room, the Eagles held a slim 26-23 advantage. Out of the break, the Broncos quickly took the lead, 27-26, on a pair of baskets. Teams continued trading baskets, with EMU regaining the lead, 30-29, approaching the halfway mark of the quarter. Baldwin then tied it up with a pair of free throws, which also put her at 10 on the day. After a layup by Webb, Sweeney swiped the inbounds pass and converted a layup to put EMU back ahead, 36-34. Going into the final quarter of play, the Eagles were ahead, 40-38. The Broncos quickly tied the game up at 40 apiece in the opening minute of the fourth. A jumper by Deans then put the Eagles back ahead, 42-40. The two teams were knotted up at 42 before a long three from Morton put the Green and White ahead by three. Morton then dropped in another bucket to put EMU up by four. However, a free throw from the Broncos dropped the lead back down to three. Sweeney then knocked down a nice jumper to put the lead back at five with 1:30 left to play. After a pair from the line by WMU, the lead was back down to three, 49-46, with 51 seconds to go. The Broncos would have one last opportunity with two seconds left on the clock to tie up the game, and a desperation three fell through to knot the game, 49-49, to force overtime. Western knocked down a three to open the overtime period, but a jumper from Deans cut the Broncos’ lead back down to one. However, the WMU offense then converted a basket and sunk a free throw to make the score 55-51. A pair from the line by Morton reduced the WMU lead to a pair with 2:45 left to play. A layup from Webb put the Eagles down by two with 15 seconds left to tie it up with a two, or take the lead with a three. After a missed shot from Sweeney fell short, Webb collected the offensive rebound and converted another layup to send the game to a second overtime. The Broncos opened the period with the first basket again to take the lead, but a Sweeney three quickly gave the lead back to the Eagles, 60-59. A free throw from Morton then gave the Green and White a two-point lead with 3:25 left. Two free throws from Deans put EMU ahead, 6359, within the final two minutes. Webb was then also sent to the line, converting one-of-two for a three point lead, 64-61, in the final minute of play. A floater from Sweeney then put the Eagles up by five, 66-61, with 28 seconds left. However, a layup from Western fell through and the shooter was fouled. After converting the free throw, the Eastern lead fell to just two with 20 seconds left. Clutch free throws from Sweeney put the Eagles back ahead by four, before a Western layup put the lead back down to two. The Broncos fouled Sweeney again, and she dropped them both to put the lead back at four. Western was unable to get a good shot off on the other end, and the Eagles took home the 70-66 victory.

OXFORD, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team forced the Miami University RedHawks into 29 turnovers in route to a 70-46 Mid-American Conference cross-divisional victory, Saturday, Feb. 13, inside Millett Hall. Junior Cha Sweeney led the way for the Eagles (15-8, 6-6 MAC), scoring a game-high 24 on 10-of-20 shooting, including four three-pointers. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin finished two rebounds shy of a double-double while scoring 13 points. Sophomore Sasha Dailey and senior Sera Ozelci also reached double figures, adding 11 and 10 points, respectively. Eastern put on a defensive clinic in the win, forcing Miami (9-14, 3-9 MAC) to commit 29 turnovers, the highest total the Green and White have forced a Division I team into this season. Dailey led the Eagles with five steals while junior Sheyna Deans and Janay Morton swiped four apiece. Sweeney scored seven of the Eagles first 11 points, leading the Green and White to an early lead before Dailey provided a spark off the bench. Scoring four points and registering two steals, Dailey fueled Eastern to an 18-13 lead after one quarter of play. Sweeney kept the Eagles rolling in the second quarter, corralling a pass from sophomore Micah Robinson and draining the three-ball to extend EMU’s lead to eight. Miami answered with a triple of their own before Baldwin pulled down an offensive rebound. Fighting through contact, Baldwin knocked down the put back and then completed the three-point play at the charity stripe. Energized by a tenacious effort on defense, the Eagles pushed their lead to 15 after senior Rachel Kehoe (St. Clair, Mich.-St. Clair) tracked down an offensive rebound to give the Green and White a fresh shot clock. Working the ball around, Dailey whipped a pass to Sweeney in front of the Miami bench where the 5-foot-2 guard converted a triple to give the Eagles a 35-20 halftime lead. Sweeney led the way for Eastern in the first half, scoring a game-high 15 points, while Dailey was not far behind. In addition to her three first half steals, Dailey chipped in 11 points. EMU outscored Miami 25-10 in the third quarter behind a nine-point effort from Sweeney and seven points each from Baldwin and Ozelci, to take a 30-point lead into the final frame. The RedHawks chipped away at the Eagles’ lead in the fourth quarter, but EMU held off Miami for a 70-46 victory.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (EMUEagles.com) – Completing a season sweep of the University at Buffalo, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team moved its winning streak to three, Feb. 17, at Alumni Arena. The Eagles (16-8, 7-6) defense overpowered the Bulls (12-12, 4-9) while the offense converted nearly 49 percent of its shots to give the Green and White a 70-55 Mid-American Conference victory at Alumni Arena. Four double-digit scorers led a balanced offense for the Eagles. Junior Cha Sweeney led the way, scoring a team-high 19 while sophomore Sasha Dailey added 17 points, finishing one off her season-high. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin posted her fifth double-double of the season, pitching in 13 points to go along with team-high 10 rebounds. The 6-foot-3 center also tied a seasonbest with four rejections to go along with two assists and a steal. Junior Janay Morton’s rounded out the double-digit performances, adding 12 points and six rebounds. Whistles kept either team from settling into a groove early on, leaving the game scoreless through the first two minutes of play. Baldwin ended the drought after junior Sheyna Deans drove the lane and dished to the 6-foot-3 post for an easy bucket. Fouls continued to dictate the pace of the game, as two fouls on Deans and another pair on Sweeney forced the duo to the bench early. Fortunately for Eastern, Dailey’s defensive effort off the bench fueled the Eagles to an 11-8 lead midway through the period. EMU pushed its lead to five before the Bulls evened the score at 19 with 22.2 ticks left in the first quarter. Dailey then ended the frame with a jumper just before the buzzer sounded to give the Green and White a two-point lead after 10 minutes of play. A four-point run by Dailey pushed EMU’s lead to six, 25-19, before the Bulls charged their way back. Despite a trio of denials by Baldwin, Buffalo pulled within two. After a free throw by senior Sera Ozelci, Sweeney went on five-point run. With her defending sagging inside the arc, Sweeney knocked down a triple before swiping a pass on the ensuing in-bounds and laying it in for two, giving the Green and White an eight-point cushion with 4:29 left in the quarter. The Eagles extended their lead to as many as 12 but the Bulls used an 8-0 run to cut EMU’s advantage to four before Morton’s buzzer-beating layup gave Eastern a six-point lead at the half. Eastern held Buffalo without a field goal for the first five minutes of play to open the third frame while a triple from Morton and baskets by Sweeney and Baldwin fueled the Eagles’ offense. The Bulls knocked down five free throws over the course of the five-minute span, but Eastern held a 51-40 lead at the four-minute mark after Sweeney converted a three-ball. UB continued to convert from the charity stripe, cutting the Eagles’ lead to single digits before Sweeney split the Bulls’ defense and slipped a pass to junior Phillis Webb.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team (17-8, 8-6 MAC) ran away with an 84-60 victory over Northern Illinois (10-15, 3-11 MAC) today, Feb. 20. The Eagles grabbed the lead early, and did not relinquish it throughout the game. Junior Cha Sweeney led the Eagle attack, finishing with 19 points, four rebounds, and four assists. Additionally, the junior was five-of-10 from downtown. Three other EMU players also finished in double-digits, with senior Chanise Baldwin dropping 17 to go along with six boards and two blocks. Finally, juniors Sheyna Deans (and Janay Morton both finished with 16 points. Deans also chipped in six rebounds, while Morton had three treys and three assists as well. As a team, the Green and White finished 32-of-73 from the floor and 10-of-21 from three-point land. The Eagles were perfect from the free-throw line, going 10-of-10. Eastern’s defense was a key part of the game, forcing the Huskies into 21 turnovers, of which 12 were EMU steals. EMU also held a huge advantage in points off turnovers at 26-10. The Eagles got on board first, opening up an early 6-0 lead. The Eagle defense caused the Huskies problems early on, forcing three turnovers in the first five minutes. The offense got into a rhythm early on, opening a 12-4 lead with 4:44 left in the first quarter. Heading into the final three minutes, EMU maintained a 14-7 lead, before a three from Sweeney put the Eagles up by 10. Sweeney then kept the offense rolling, draining another long shot to put EMU up 22-9 with 41 seconds to go. With the clock ticking down, senior Sera Ozelci nailed a three from the corner to put the score at 25-9 at the end of the first quarter. Early on in the second quarter, the Green and White held a big 27-9 lead before NIU sank a three. The Eagles, however, responded with a basket of their own. The offense continued their hot shooting, opening a 20-point lead, 32-12, with 6:49 remaining in the half. Both sides of the ball continued their hot start, as the offense shot 45 percent from the floor, and the defense held the Huskies to just 16 points through 17 minutes of play. With 2:48 left in the first half, the Eagles led by 24, 42-18. However, Northern began to find a rhythm on the offensive end, bringing the score to 44-25 at the half. The Huskies got the scoring started with a three, after which Baldwin dropped in a contested layup. Both teams continued trading baskets, with Eastern maintaining a 20-point lead, 48-28. A three from Morton got the Eagles back on track, before the defense forced a steal on the other end. A couple of EMU turnovers gave the Huskies an opportunity to catch up on the offensive end, but the Eagle defense held strong. Within the final two minutes of the quarter, Morton converted a very tough layup, after which she sunk a free throw. Baldwin followed her with a contested layup of her own, also draining the free throw. At this point, EMU held a 59-36 lead. Ozelci, like in the first quarter, nailed another three as the clock ticked down to give EMU the 64-40 lead heading into the final quarter. Sweeney opened the quarter with a quick layup, but the Huskies went down and sunk a basket of their own. Back-to-back threes from the Huskies brought the tally to 68-47 with 7:30 remaining. Morton dropped another quick three, giving her three on the day. Sweeney then sank one herself, giving EMU a 76-53 lead with five minutes to go. Baldwin continued bullying down low, dropping another tough layup. The Green and White then began to drain the clock, and ultimately finished with an 84-60 victory.

TOLEDO, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – Junior Cha Sweeney fueled the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team to a crucial Mid-American Conference road win over the University of Toledo at Savage Arena, Feb. 24. The Eagles (18-8, 9-6 MAC) never trailed in the contest, cruising to a 58-46 win over the Rockets (15-11, 10-5 MAC). Returning to her hometown, Sweeney finished one rebound shy of a double-double with a team-high 18 points on 7-of-17 shooting to go along with three assists and two steals. Fellow junior Janay Morton (Brooklyn Park, Minn.-Osseo) also reached double digit scoring, pouring in 14 points. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin (Pontiac, Mich.-Martin Luther King (Providence)) added four points and five rebounds while rejecting a seasonhigh five shots. Baldwin’s five blocks ranks as the most by an Eagle since 2003 when Melis Ulker matched the Pontiac, Mich. native’s total versus Michigan State, Nov. 28. As a team the Green and White knocked down shots at a 44.0 clip on 22of-50 shooting from the floor while holding UT to a 37.5 shooting percentage. Eastern also held advantages in points off turnovers, 22-11, thanks to 21 Toledo miscues. After back-to-back buckets by Sweeney put EMU in front early, five different Eagles’ knocked down shots to fuel the Eagles to a 12-point lead after the first frame. Eastern put on a defensive clinic in the opening frame, holding the Rockets to just three field-goals on 3-of-12 shooting from the floor. Holding the Rockets scoreless for more than seven minutes, the Eagles closed the quarter on a 13-2 run. The Green and White’s hot-shooting carried over into the second quarter, as did its pesky high-pressure defense. Forcing the Rockets into six turnovers, the Eagles cashed in on the miscues for 11 points in the frame. Baldwin fired up the Eagles on the defensive end, swatting her third shot of the game. Sweeney then swiped the ensuing inbounds pass and fired up court to Webb for an easy lay-in. The fast break bucket gave EMU a 22-8 edge with 7:55 to play in the half. Eastern Michigan extended its lead to 17 after a three-point play by Dailey and a triple by Sweeney made the score 35-18, in favor of the Green and White. Toledo pulled within 13 late in the period before Dailey converted a jumper at the elbow to send EMU into the half in front, 37-22. EMU’s hot-shooting and pesky high-pressure defense carried over to the second half as the Eagles outscored the Rockets 17-5 in the third quarter. While the offense continued to click, the defense smothered Toledo, holding the home team without a field-goal for nearly six minutes. Morton paced the Eagles in the period, scoring nine of the team’s 17 points to give Eastern a 54-27 advantage with 10 minutes to play. The Eagles cushion proved to be too much for the Rockets to overcome as EMU came away with a 58-46 victory over UT, despite being outscored 19-4. The 46 points scored by Toledo is the second lowest total by an EMU opponent this season and lowest by a Division I foe this season. The Eagles previously held Madonna to 45 points back in December.

YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team was unable to overcome Ball State University’s hot outside shooting in a 67-63 setback on Senior Day Saturday, Feb. 27, at the Convocation Center. The Cardinals (19-8, 11-5 MAC) went 12-for-26 (46.2 percent) from deep in the game to go along with controlling the glass with a +14 advantage (BSU 45, EMU 31). Leading the game for EMU (18-9, 9-7 MAC) was junior Cha Sweeney with 22 points and four assists. Fellow juniors Phillis Webb and Janay Morton were the other Eagles in double figures, with 14 each. Morton also had a game-best six steals. Overall the Green and White shot 38.3 percent (23-of-60) from the floor. They notched 12 team steals, compared to BSU’s two, and forced 22 overall turnovers. They turned those into 17 of their points. Ultimately EMU could not overcome BSU’s hot shooting, and game-high 28 points from Moriah Monaco, who went a career-best 8-for-15 from three point land. Both teams began the game with some back and forth action, yet EMU lead the entire way by as many as six, but only by two midway through the period 12-10. The scoring was paced by five points by Morton and Webb. Ball State closed the gap at the end of the first period, tying the game at 16 with around a minute left. After trading three pointers, Ball State hit a pair of free throws to take their first lead of the game at the end of the first quarter, 21-19. It was the Eagles’ first deficit in four games. EMU last trailed against Western Michigan, Feb. 6. The second quarter started much as the first did, with both teams scoring at a quick clip. EMU went ahead four at one point, but BSU did not go away; scoring seven in a row to take a 33-30 lead midway through the period. From there both defenses clamped down as both teams combined for six points in the last five minutes, with neither team scoring in the final three minutes. At the half, the Cardinals led 35-34. The Cardinals extended their lead to the largest of the game out of the half, going ahead 40-34 by scoring the first five points. Morton hit a three to get within three, but BSU rattled off the next five points, forcing EMU into a timeout at the 6:30 mark, trailing by eight. The deficit extended to 11 not too long after, but the Eagles responded well to the adversity, knocking down six straight of their own, all from Sweeney, to get the BSU lead down to five at the three-minute mark. As was the case in the second quarter, neither team scored a bucket in the final three minutes of the third, allowing BSU to lead 51-45 heading to the final frame. The Eagles began the period by cutting the Cardinal lead down to three. BSU hit a three with a foul, and looked to go back ahead by seven. Following the missed free throw, Moron nailed a three pointer to cut it back to three. Following back-to-back turnovers by the Cardinals, EMU retook the lead 56-54 at the six minute mark on a layup by Baldwin and a three pointer from Sweeney, forcing the BSU timeout. The tide turned after the big three ball though, as BSU turned around and scored the next seven points, including two three pointers. The Eagles responded back with six points to tie the game at 61 apiece with just over a minute to play. The final minute was not kind to EMU though, as BSU hit a three that was answered by a Sweeney jumper. That proved to be the final points for Eastern, as BSU hit three free throws down the stretch to secure the 67-63 win. Saturday marked the final regular season game at the Convocation Center for four EMU seniors, KaBria Walker, Chanise Baldwin, Sera Ozelci, and Rachel Kehoe.

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – In a back and forth contest, the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team held off in-state conference rival Western Michigan University for a 63-52 victory Wednesday night, March 2, in Kalamazoo. Despite the EMU victory, wins by both Ball State and Toledo have assured that the Eagles will host a first round game at the Convocation Center Monday, March 7, in the opening round of the Mid-American Conference Tournament. The Eagles were led by senior Chanise Baldwin who dominated down low for a career-high 19 points. She did most of her work from the free-throw line, hitting a career-best 11 from the stripe. Meanwhile, junior Janay Morton led the Eagles defensively, notching her second straight six-steal game. Two other Eagles finished in double figures as juniors Cha Sweeney and Phillis Webb, both had 10. As a team, EMU shot 34 percent from the field (20-of-59) and kept WMU at bay by going 20-of-25 (80 percent) from the free throw line. EMU dominated down low, outscoring WMU 32-24 in the paint. The defense carried the day though, with the Green and White forcing WMU into 22 turnovers, with 19 of them coming as steals, a season high. That turned into 15 of EMU’s points on the night. Out of the gates, A Morton three ball and five points from junior Sheyna Deans had EMU leading 8-2. Meanwhile the defense stifled WMU, holding them to an almost three-minute scoring drought. Midway through the first period, EMU held the 8-4 advantage. From there, both offenses were mostly stagnant, with EMU going 2-of-13 and WMU going 2-of-8 down the stretch. Both teams shot under 30 percent for the period, and as a result, EMU led just 12-9 after one. Senior Sera Ozelci nailed a three to begin the second quarter, but WMU responded with two quick buckets, cutting EMU’s lead to just two, 15-13.

MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team dropped its final regular season game of the 2015-16 campaign, 78-70, to the Chippewas of Central Michigan University Saturday, March 5, at McGuirk Arena. Plenty was on the line between the two intrastate rivals, including final seeds in the upcoming Mid-American Conference Tournament, the Michigan MAC Trophy as well as CMU’s opportunity to win the outright MAC West Division championship. Eastern Michigan (19-10, 10-8 MAC) was led by junior Cha Sweeney’s team-high 19 points and six assists while graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin and junior Phillis Webb also reached double-digits. Baldwin added 14 points and eight rebounds while Webb posted her fifth career double-double with 13 points and 10 boards. A battle tested road squad, Head Coach Tory Verdi’s club fell to 9-5 this season in road contests and has been the winners in its last four tilts away from Ypsilanti. As a team, Eastern shot 43.3 percent from the floor and 34.6 percent from beyond the arc, going 9-for-26 in its loss to the Chippewas. The Chippewas’ offensive output was spread out evenly as they had five players notch double-digit scoring in the game. Jewel Cotton led all CMU players with 20 points, while Presley Hudson had 11 point and pulled down 11 rebounds. Reyna Frost added 14 points to the Chippewa tally and Da’Jourie Turner and Cassie Breen scored 14 and 13 points, respectively, for Central Michigan. Hot shooting by both sides set the tone of the game early. Baldwin opened things up with a bucket before the Green and White went on to hit 5-of-7 threepointers. First, junior Janay Morton drained a triple off of a hand-off from Webb before Baldwin whipped a weakside pass to senior Sera Ozelci. Spotting up on the arc, the Turkish sharp-shooter knocked down the trey. While the Chippewas kept pace with the Eagles, EMU continued to light it up from long range, maintaining the lead. Webb joined the three-point party after Morton dialed in from distance, hitting a baseline triple before Ozelci converted her second of the afternoon to give the Green and White a 23-19 lead with 3:35 to play in the first period. The teams combined for just four points over the remainder of the quarter, giving the Eagles a 25-21 lead through the first 10 minutes of play. EMU pushed its lead to seven in the second frame after a mid-range jumper by sophomore Sasha Dailey and back-to-back threes by Ozelci and Sweeney made the score 35-28 in favor of Eastern Michigan with 6:17 remaining in the half. Paced by the play of Baldwin on the inside, the Eagles held a 40-33 lead at the break. Capitalizing on EMU miscues, the Chips regained the lead, 47-43, four minutes into the third quarter. The two-point deficit marked the first time the Eagles trailed in the game since early in the first frame. Central outscored the Eagles 14-3 over the first seven minutes of the stanza before a jumper from the elbow by Baldwin ended EMU’s four-minute long scoring drought. Facing a nine-point deficit, baskets by Sweeney and Webb pulled the Green and White within five, 54-49. Central opened the final quarter on a 10-2 run, pushing its lead to a game-high 13, and forcing EMU Head Coach Tory Verdi to burn a timeout. CMU’s 13-point edge stood for a majority of the quarter before Baldwin and Sweeney cut the deficit to four, 69-65, with two minutes to play. The late rally by the Green and White ultimately proved to be too little too late as the Eagles fell by a final score of 78-70.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team avenged a pair of regular season losses to Ball State University Tuesday, March 9, bouncing the Cardinals from the MidAmerican Conference Tournament for the second consecutive season. The Eagles (21-10) held off a third quarter push by the Cardinals (21-9) to punch their ticket to the semifinals with a 67-53 victory. Junior Cha Sweeney scored a game-high 29 points to lead the Eagles, 19 of which came in the first half. Fellow junior Janay Morton added 12 points. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin nearly recorded a doubledouble, falling one point shy while corralling a game-high 13 rebounds. Baldwin’s control of the glass led the Eagles to a 48-43 rebounding advantage. As a team, the Eagles shot 32.8 percent from the floor, connecting on 21-of-64 shot attempts. Meanwhile, the stifling defense of the Green and White held the Cardinals to a 30.6 field goal percentage on 19-of-62 shooting. Eastern made 25 trips to the charity stripe, knocking down 18 free throws to finish 72.0 from the line. BSU attempted just 12 free throws in the contest, converting nine. “Our players competed for 40 minutes tonight,” said Head Coach Tory Verdi. “I’m extremely proud of their effort and focus. We did an excellent job of executing our defensive game plan. Our pressure in the backcourt bottled them up, made them tired and affected their execution in the half court.” Behind hot shooting, Ball State ran out to a 10-2 lead just three minutes into the contest before the Eagles clawed their way back. Sweeney led the charge, scoring 10 points in the opening frame while the EMU defense held the Cardinals to 3-of-13 shooting from the floor. Despite trailing in the early goings, the Green and White overcame a sluggish start, turning an eight-point deficit into an eight-point lead at halftime. Sophomore Sasha Dailey knocked down a pair of free throws from the charity stripe, giving EMU a 19-18 edge, its first of the contest moments into the second period. Eastern Michigan held the Cardinals to just six points in the quarter in addition to forcing four BSU miscues to take a 32-24 lead at the midway point. In the third, Ball State pulled within one, 36-35, before Sweeney knocked down a baseline trey. The triple by Sweeney started a 9-2 run that ultimately gave Eastern a 45-37 lead heading into the final stanza. Morton fueled the Eagles over the course of the final 10 minutes, consistently responding to Ball State buckets and overwhelming the Cardinals guards. The Brooklyn Park, Minn. native poured in nine points in the frame to pace the Green and White to a 67-53 victory.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team looked to secure a spot in the Mid-American Conference Championship when it tangled with No. 2 seed Central Michigan University in the semifinals, March 11. The Eagles (21-11, 10-8 MAC) could not overcome CMU’s (22-9, 13-5 MAC) 15 three-pointers, falling by a final tally of 86-71. A career-day from junior Phillis Webb paced the Green and White with 20 points. The Brooklyn Park, Minn. product knocked down a career-high four threepointers while also adding six rebounds, a rebound, and an assist. Fellow juniors Cha Sweeney and Janay Morton also reached double figures, adding 18 and 12 points, respectively. Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin nearly collected a double-double, grabbing a team-high nine rebounds while also chipping in eight points. The 6-foot-3 center also tied a season-high with five blocks, becoming the first Eagle to reject five shots twice in a season in more than a decade. Eastern converted 27-of-67 shots from the field good for a 40.3 field goal percentage, including a 9-of-28 performance from behind the arc. Meanwhile, Central knocked down 51.7 percent of its shots (31-of-60) and 15-of-27 triples. The Chippewas held a 41-29 advantage on the boards while the Eagles held the upperhand in the turnover battle, 18-12. Following an early triple by Morton, Webb went on to hit 3-of-4 from downtown to fuel the Eagles to a 24-17 lead after one quarter of play. Central struck first, opening the game with a layup before Morton’s trey. Feeding off the energy a stout defensive effort that forced CMU into three turnovers in the first three minutes, the Eagles continued to take advantage of their speed and the Chippewas’ miscues. EMU held a 7-0 lead in fastbreak points in the opening period, allowing Eastern to take a 24-17 lead into the second quarter. The Green and White continued to outwork the Chips in every facet of the game in the second half. Defensively, the Eagles forced CMU into three turnovers while cashing in on those miscues to the tune of seven points. Baldwin used her size and aggressiveness down low to provide the Eagles with extra possession offensively and limit the MAC’s top offense in Central. Corralling an offensive rebound in the early goings, Baldwin kicked it out to Sweeney at the top of the key. With the defense completely collapsed in the paint, Sweeney drained the trey to extend EMU’s lead. As shots kept falling for the Eagles, the Green and White became even more locked in defensively. On the ensuing inbounds, EMU’s full-court press forced a 10-second violation before sophomore Sasha Dailey converted a mid-range jumper to push Eastern’s lead to double digits, 29-19. After Sweeney kicked to Webb for a baseline three-pointer gave EMU its largest lead of the game, 37-24, Central Michigan called timeout with 5:24 left in the half. Despite scoring just four points over the course of the next five minutes, the Eagles held a 41-37 lead at halftime. Central used a 32-point third quarter to take their largest lead of the game into the final period. CMU shot 68.4 percent in the frame, converting 13-of-19 shots compared to EMU’s 7-of-15 showing. More notably however was the Chippewas 6-of-8 shooting from distance. Entering the fourth quarter trailing 69-58, the Eagles could not overcome the deficit despite forcing the Chippewas into seven turnovers. Converting just 6-of-20 shot attempts, the Eagles’ offense sputtered, as the Green and White fell 86-71.

MORAGA, Calif. (EMUEagles.com) – Graduate transfer Chanise Baldwin’s offensive rebound and put back with 1.8 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter lifted the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team to a 74-73 victory over Saint Mary’s College in the opening round of the WNIT Thursday, March 17. The Eagles led by as many as nine, but needed Baldwin’s late game heroics to propel the Green and White into the second round of the tournament. With the win, EMU is one of just eight teams in the tournament to win a first round game on the road. It also marks the third consecutive season that EMU has won its opening game in the postseason, a first for the school. The Eagles were led by Cha Sweeney’s team-high 19 points on 7-of-21 shooting while the 5-foot-2 point guard also added seven assists and four steals. Junior Janay Morton poured in 16 points on 5-of-9 shooting, including a 5-of-6 effort from three-point range. Baldwin chipped in 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting to go along with eight rebounds, two assists, and one rejection. Junior Phillis Webb was the other Eagle to reach double figures, adding 11 points and seven rebounds in the win. Playing in the state of California for just the second time in program history, the Eagles converted 27-of-75 field goal attempts and 10-of-22 from beyond the arc while St. Mary’s shot just shy of 50 percent from the field (29-of-59) and 43.8 percent from long range (7-of-16). The Gaels entered the contest as the nation’s leader in free throw makes on the season but mustered just eight makes from the charity stripe against the Eagles while the Green and White knocked down 10-of-13 freebies. The Eagles defense overwhelmed the Gaels in the opening minutes, forcing SMC into several early turnovers and holding the home team without a field goal attempt for nearly two minutes. Despite the gritty defensive start, the Green and White offense opened 1-of-6 from the floor, allowing the Gaels to open with a 12-8 lead. Baldwin corralled an offensive rebound and put it back for two, drawing a foul in the process. Converting the three-point play from the line, Baldwin pulled the Eagles within one, 12-11, near the midway mark of the first quarter. Back-to-back triples by St. Mary’s turned EMU’s one-point lead into a five point deficit with three minutes to play in the period but the Eagles regained the lead at the buzzer. Sweeney knocked down her second triple of the game to give the Green and White a 21-20 lead after 10 minutes of play. Patience and quick ball movement by the Eagles paid off in the first possession of the second frame as Baldwin converted a jumper from the elbow to push EMU’s advantage to three, 23-20, with the shot clocking winding down. After the Gaels evened the ledger at 27, the Green and White pieced together an 8-0 run. Sweeney and Morton drained back-to-back triples before Webb’s long jumper pushed Eastern Michigan’s lead to 35-27. Junior Sheyna Deans pushed the Eagles lead to nine with two minutes left in the half. Driving into the lane, Deans pulled up for a mid-range jumper and drew the hoop and the harm, ending a two-minute long scoring drought for the Green and White. A relatively quiet final two minutes on both sides of the floor gave the Eagles a 38-33 lead at halftime. A foul fest of a third quarter for the Eagles forced Sweeney and Baldwin to the bench, making way for a run by the Gaels. With the EMU duo on the bench, the Eastern offense struggled while St. Mary’s flourished, pulling within one, 55-54, with less than a minute to play in the third period. Following a pair of misses from SMC at the charity stripe, Webb drove to the hoop and put it in for two as time expired, giving EMU a 57-54 lead with 10 minutes to play. Dialing in from distance, Morton and senior Sera Ozelci sank back-to-back three-pointers to give the Eagles a six-point edge but the Gaels came right back, eventually taking the lead for the first time since the first period. Head Coach Tory Verdi used a timeout amid a 7-0 run by the Gaels hoping to turn the momentum with his team trailing 69-65 with four minutes to go in regulation. The regrouping session did just that as the Eagles soared back, pulling within one, 71-70 with less than a minute left on the clock. Sweeney crosses over a defender before splitting two more Gaels in the paint and floating in a 5-footer to put the Eagles in front by one. As they had done for a majority of the second half, St. Mary’s responded, knocking down a baseline jumper to retake the lead, 73-72, with 7.7 ticks left. Out of an EMU timeout, Sweeney’s jumper from the free throw line rimmed off but Baldwin was there to corral the carom and put it back for two. Baldwin’s second chance opportunity lifted the Eagles to a 74-73 lead with 1.7 seconds remaining. The last ditch effort by the Gaels was off the mark, giving Eastern Michigan the one-point win.

Texas Christian

FORT WORTH, Texas (EMUEagles.com) -- The Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team saw its 2015-16 campaign come to an end Saturday, March 19, in the second round of the Women’s National Invitational Tournament (WNIT). The Eagles (22-12) fell behind early and could not overcome a 21-point hole on the road as they came up short, 85-81, to the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs at Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena. Despite shooting 50 percent in the second half of the game, the Eagles dropped the decision after connecting on just 40.6 percent of its shots for the game and 40.9 percent of its three point attempts. Three EMU student-athletes finished with 20-or-more points as Chanise Baldwin led the way with a career-best 26 points, on 10-of-14 shooting, to go with 13 rebounds. Additionally, the senior had four blocks in the game, while going 6-of-7 from the charity stripe. Juniors Cha Sweeney and Janay Morton added 24 and 20 points, respectively. Defensively, Morton had a postseason EMU record six steals and Sweeney had four thefts. As a team, EMU grabbed 15 steals in the game. Baldwin opened up the scoring with a jumper, however the Horned Frogs responded with a quick 8-0 run in less than a minute to put TCU up in the early going. The Eagles came back with five straight to make it a one-point game, 8-7, wth 7:51 on the clock in the first quarter. The quick run did not last long as Texas Christian grabbed five points in a row to extend their lead back to six. With their last bucket at the 7:51 mark, the Green and White went on a five minute scoring drought, allowing the Horned Frogs to grab a 12-point lead, 19-7. Baldwin finally broke the scoring drought with 2:33 left on the clock when she connected on the free throw. TCU was able to continue to grow its lead connecting on the final two field goals of the first quarter to make it 23-10 to close the first 10 minutes of play. Texas Christian also held the Eagles to no field goal makes through the final 7:51 of the quarter and just three free throw makes during that span. The Horned Frogs did not slow the pace to start the second quarter as they knocked down three-straight to extend their lead to 21, 31-10, as the Green and White crossed the 10 minute mark without scoring a field goal. Looking at the 21 point deficit, the Eastern Michigan offense came to life when Phillis Webb went for back-to-back layups and Sweeney grabbed one of her own within 53 seconds of action to make it a 31-16 deficit. Texas Christian responded with a bucket before the media timeout at the five minute mark, but Morton came out of the break firing by knocking down a three-pointer to bring EMU within 14. Both squads traded buckets before a quick 7-2 run put the Horned Frogs back up 15, 40-25, with just over two minutes left in the first half. After going back and forth, Morton hit a triple to shrink the Eagles’ deficit to 12, 42-30, as they went into the half. After the first 20 minutes of play, Morton led the Green and White with 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting, while connecting on 3-of-5 from downtown. Baldwin nearly recorded a double double in the opening half, going for nine points and eight rebounds, while also blocking three shots. As a team, EMU shot just 31.4 percent from the floor and 30 percent from beyond the arc. Defensively, Eastern forced the Horned Frogs into 13 turnovers, 10 of which were on Eagle swipes. TCU was much more efficient from the floor, shooting at a 48.6 percent clip, while knocking down six triples in 12 chances. Alix and Hamilton led the Horned Frogs with 12 points apiece. The Eagles opened up the scoring just like the first half as Baldwin connected on a layup but TCU responded with a three-pointer within the opening minute of play. Over the next minute, Eastern had back-to-back old fashioned three point plays to cut the deficit to seven, 47-40, with 7:26 left on the clock. The Eagles’ offense continued its flurry scoring five in a row following a TCU layup to make it a four-point, 49-45, game, with just under six minutes to go in the third quarter. The Horned Frogs answered the EMU run with seven in a row to give themselves another double digit lead, but the Eagles continued to fight, looking at a 62-52 deficit at the end of the third. TCU extended its lead to begin the fourth quarter but EMU rallied back. Trailing by 16, the Eagles scored eight-straight points before Texas Christian connected on a pair of free throws to give the Horned Frogs a 10-point, 80-70, lead with 2:29 left in the game. Baldwin responded with six points in a row, getting the Eagles to within four, 80-76, with just under a minute to go. Free throws proved to be the clincher down the stretch for Texas Christian as the Horned Frogs iced the game down the stretch with five free throw makes in the final minute to seal the 85-81 win.

James Plays in the Pan Am Games Eastern Michigan University guard Tavelyn James (Detroit, Mich.-Mumford) earned a spot on the roster of the USA women's basketball team that participated in the 2011 Pan American Games, Oct. 21-25, in Guadalajara, Mexico. James became not only the first EMU player to compete in the event, but also the first student-athlete from a Mid-American Conference institution to be selected for the team's roster. "I am honored and excited to represent the USA team, EMU and the MAC," said James at the announcement. "I am looking forward to playing with players from across the country and learn new things from the Team USA coaching staff. The experience will provide a new prospective for me and I am looking forward to becoming a better and more well rounded player." "This is such a tremendous honor for Tavelyn and our program, as well as for the MAC," said former EMU Head Women's Basketball Coach AnnMarie Gilbert when the teams were announced. "I have always believed that she would one day be invited to play for USA Basketball. She is, in my opinion, one of the best and fastest small guards in the country. The opportunity for Tavelyn to represent the United States and to compete with and against some of the nation's top players will be a rewarding and unforgettable experience for her. She has worked extremely hard and is so deserving of this special honor." Besides James, the official 12-member USA roster included: Breanna Stewart (Cicero-North Syracuse H.S.-North Syracuse, N.Y.), a high school senior who helped the USA to a gold medal and earned a spot on the five-person all-tournament team at

the 2011 FIBA U19 World Championship this past July; alongside NCAA studentathletes Shante Evans (Hofstra); Christine Flores (Missouri); Emilie Johnson (UC Santa Barbara); Marissa Kastanek (North Carolina State); Kevi Luper (Oral Roberts); Valencia McFarland (Mississippi); Katelan Redmon (Gonzaga); Kayla Standish (Gonzaga); April Sykes (Rutgers); and Avery Warley (Liberty). The player selections were made by the USA Basketball Women's National Team Committee. The U.S. squad opened training camp on Oct. 15 with an evening practice in Houston, Texas, followed by two practices, Oct. 16 and 17, and a morning session, Oct. 18. The team then departed for Guadalajara and the 2011 Pan American Games on Oct. 18, and had a practice Oct. 19 and 20 before the competition started on Oct. 21.

Stewart has one year of high school remaining before she is expected to head to the University of Connecticut in the fall of 2012, where she has verbally committed to attend. James started all four games for the USA, averaging 9.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 24.5 minutes per game. Her nine assists led the squad, while her 39 points and 13 made field goals were second most. The Pan American Games are a multisport competition held every four years

The 2003-04 Championship Run At times, dreams seem to arrive out of nowhere. For the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball program, the 2003-04 campaign was one of those dreams. In the sixth year under the tutelage of head coach Suzy Merchant, a collection of underclassmen and one senior were able to accomplish what any young, up-and-coming program needs to gain recognition at the national level: qualify for an NCAA tournament. The Eagles did accomplish that feat, but it did not arrive without a season full of “firsts.” That series of occurrences began midway through the regular MidAmerican Conference season. After starting the league slate with a 5-3 record, the Eagles hosted their archenemies in the MAC over the past 12 years, the Kent State Golden Flashes, Feb. 4. EMU had not defeated Kent since 1992, and the Golden Flashes came into the contest with an unusually mediocre 4-3 conference mark. Eastern held a slim lead throughout the majority of the game, but a combined 36 points from senior co-captain Marion Crandall and freshman Sarah VanMetre gave the Eagles a much-needed 63-58 win, the first time any EMU player had tasted victory over the Golden Flashes in more than a decade. Prior to that game, EMU had won back-to-back contests versus Bowling Green and at Western Michigan, but the emotional victory over Kent State may have triggered what was to come for the remainder of the conference schedule. The Eagles rolled off five consecutive wins, including blowout victories over Marshall and Toledo. EMU did absorb one more loss, an 89-81 decision at Ohio, Feb. 25. But that may have been exactly what the Eagles needed heading into the MAC tournament. In all, Eastern won nine out of its final 10 games heading into the postseason, but none was more important than the season finale at Central Michigan, March 2. Eastern had clinched at least a share of its first-ever MAC West title with an 84-74 decision over Ball State, Feb. 21, but the team wanted the championship all to itself. The loss at Ohio prevented the celebration, however, and EMU would have to come up with a win at arch-rival CMU’s Rose Arena to gain sole possession of the division championship. It was apparent that the Eagles didn’t want things to come down to the wire, as they opened up a 45-28 lead and coasted to victory in the second half, putting four players in double figures in the effort. The ensuing stop on EMU’s magical season was the 2004 Kraft MAC Tournament. The Eagles were awarded the second seed in the field, and were able to sit out the first round with a bye. EMU started its tournament run in Cleveland, Ohio, where EMU had yet to win a game in Gund Arena. The Eagles’ first round opponent was seventh-seeded Toledo, a team with which

EMU had split the regular-season series. A clock delay seemed to alter both teams’ rhythms in the first half, as sloppy play turned into a turnover-plagued fist frame, and EMU entered the locker room at halftime with a slim 24-23 lead. The second half was a different story, however, as the Eagles’ defense clamped down not allowing a Toledo field goal for the opening 4:40 of the half, opening up a 35-25 lead at the initial media time-out. Junior sharpshooter Ryan Coleman provided the team a quick scare, as she hit the floor hard with 17:30 left, and would not return until the 5:45 mark. Her return sparked the Eagles, however, as she scored seven points on 3-for-3 shooting from the field and helped EMU open up a 55-43 lead with 2:31 left, letting EMU coast to the semifinals with a 60-47 win. Next up for the Eagles in their pursuit of a conference tournament title was a matchup with No. 6 Marshall, arguably the most physical team in the MAC. In the two teams’ lone meeting of the regular season, the Eagles came away with a 66-49 win in Huntington, W.Va., in the game following the win over Kent State. The semifinal matchup would be much closer. Marshall cut a six-point EMU lead to 65-64 with under three minutes remaining in the game, but the Eagles converted a perfect 8-for-8 from the free-throw line in the final 2:12. Success at the charity stripe proved to be the difference, and perhaps the only defining statistic that EMU had a significant advantage over the Thundering Herd. For the game, the Eagles were 22-of-28 from the line in what head coach Suzy Merchant called “one of the most physical games this program has ever played in.” EMU was outrebounded 44-32, but in the end, was a 75-70 winner, advancing to the championship round of the tournament. The Eagles’ opponent in the finals was a surprise to many MAC fans. Bowling Green, the No. 4 seed, needed two back-to-back buzzer beaters to oust Western Michigan and Miami to advance to the championship, setting up a game with EMU that had occurred just once in the regular season. In that lone meeting, the Falcons threw everything they had at the Eagles in Ypsilanti, as EMU escaped with a 61-59 victory, Jan. 27. In the finals, however, the Eagles were able to take control of the game in its early stages. EMU never trailed in the contest, and led by double-digits for much of the first half, limiting the Falcons to just two field goals over the final 12:17. The Eagles entered the locker room at halftime with an eight-point lead, but Bowling Green would not fade in the second half. The Falcons cut the lead to five with under 10 minutes remaining, but a balanced scoring effort that saw each EMU player score at least seven points and effective late-game free-throw shooting proved to be the difference, as the Eagles won their last 12th out of 13 games. It turned out to be the most important and influential win in the program’s history. With the regular-season and tournament championships in hand, the Eagles were poised for their

Eastern Michigan University Women’s Basketball 2004 and 2012 Mid-American Conference Tournament Champions • 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2012 Mid-American Conference West Division Champions

The 2003-04 Championship Run next mission, which would be even more unfamiliar: a berth and run in the 2004 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament. With the tournament final occurring on Saturday (March 20), Eastern would have to wait one more day for the fate of its first-round opponent. The team gathered for a celebration dinner and “selection-show” party at the Washtenaw Country Club the following day, and when ESPN aired the show, Eastern learned it would be a No.14 seed in the Mideast Region, and would draw No. 3 seeded Boston College, which had recently wrapped up a championship itself by winning the Big East tournament. History was not on EMU’s side. While upsets occur regularly on the men’s side of the NCAA’s, a 14-seeded team had never beaten a third seed in the history of the women’s NCAA field. The game was scheduled for March 20 at St. John Arena on the campus of the Ohio State University. EMU fans rallied around the success of the team, and before its bus departure from Ypsilanti, March 23, a group of more than 100 Eastern fans gathered in the atrium of the Convocation Center to send the team off and show their appreciation for what had already been accomplished. They were also led to US-23 by a police escort to begin the trip. When the team arrived in Columbus, it was all business. The team had scheduled news conferences and a shoot-around shortly thereafter, March 24, and was slated to play its game in the second slot, March 25, following the Ohio State versus West Virginia contest. While the home Ohio State crowd dwindled minimally, 8,159 fans were still in attendance for EMU-Boston College, by far and away the largest crowd EMU had played in front of this season. The atmosphere was also much different than a home game at the Convocation Center. It was a neutral site with many neutral fans, and the game was televised nationally in its entirety on ESPN 2 and ESPN. Shortly after the opening tip, it seemed as if the unfamiliar surroundings had begun to influence the Eagles’ composure. Boston College came out of the gate firing, converting its first nine field goals, forcing EMU into a time-out with 14:20 left, already trailing by 18 points, 22-4. Following the break, however, the Eagles went on a quick 7-2 run on back-to-back field goals by VanMetre and junior Melis Ulker, to pull within 15, 24-9, with 11:18 remaining. The Eagles kept chipping away at the BC advantage, and pulled within single digits for the first time on a VanMetre three-point field goal with 6:24 left, trimming the edge to 28-20. The teams combined for just four field goals for the remainder of the first half, and with five seconds left, a jumper by Boston College’s Jessica Deveny gave the BC Eagles a 34-24 lead heading into the intermission. VanMetre paced the Eagles with six points, while BC was led by All-American Amber Jacobs with nine first-half points. BC opened up as large as a 13-point lead in the first five minutes of the second half, but back-to-back Ulker field goals kept EMU within 11, 40-29, heading into the first media time-out at 15:09. The edge fluctuated between eight and 13 points over the next 7:20, and the Eagles were within 10, 50-40, with 7:52 remaining. Over the next 4:05, EMU posted a 12-3 run, paced by six quick points by Coleman, and pulled within just one point, 53-52, on a jumper by junior Erika Ford that led into the game’s

final media time-out (3:48 left). Eastern took its only lead of the game with 3:22 left, when Coleman came out of the media time-out and hit a jumper to give EMU a 54-53 edge. BC’s Deveny answered the next time down the floor, however, with a three-pointer to give the lead back to BC, 56-54, with 3:02 left. Neither team scored for the ensuing 2:20 before sophomore Nikki Knapp tied the game at 56-56 with 40 seconds left on an inside power layup. BC immediately called a time-out and drew up what would be the go-ahead shot. BC missed the initial jumper with 28 seconds left, but grabbed the offensive rebound that set up Kathrin Ress’ layup underneath the basket with 12 seconds left, leaving EMU trailing by two points. The Eagles took a timeout and set up a play for their best scorer, Coleman. EMU went for the win, but Coleman’s three-pointer at the buzzer fell short of the goal, and the comeback effort ended in the 58-56 loss. Overall, for the final 35 minutes of the game, EMU outscored BC, 52-36. While the entire season was a series of “firsts,” Merchant did not believe that her 2004 team’s appearance in the NCAA tournament will be the last time it will make a mark on the national level. “We’ll be back,” Merchant said following the game. “This group (Crandall is the only loss for next season) is so levelheaded, there are no prima donnas on this team. There’s a target on our backs now, and I think we’re ready for that if we keep outworking people. We’re not some one-hit wonder where the ride is over. We’ll be back.” Coleman and Ford, both captains, seconded their coaches’ comments: “That was one of many big shots to come in the NCAA tournament,” Coleman said after coming up short on the game’s final play. “I look forward to shooting more of them, and next time, that shot is going to fall.” “We’re going to be as good, if not better next year,” Ford added. While EMU’s team racked up honors in their dream run, the individuals on the team were also recognized for their accomplishments in the 2003-04 season. The Eagles landed four players on All-MAC squads with Coleman being named to the first-team, Knapp to the second-team, Crandall, an honorable mention pick, and VanMetre to the All-Freshman squad, along with being named Sixth Man of the Year.

The 2011-12 Championship Run Unlike the surprising success of the 2003-04 championship season, the championship season of 2011-12 was quite predictable. Entering her fifth season as the head coach at EMU, AnnMarie Gilbert boasted the most talented roster yet with the Eagles, and the team was returning from a season that saw numerous records broken, including most wins in a season (24), en route to a WNIT “Sweet 16” appearance. Naturally, the 2011-12 season began with high expectations, and the Eagles did not disappoint. The season began with a convincing win against Northeastern, and a record setting performance from senior gaurd Tavelyn James. Not only did the Team USA representative pour in a school single-game record 42 points, she also became the first woman in MAC history to score 40 or more points in the first game of the season. Next up for the Green and White was a record setting 110-31 victory over Marygrove in the second game of the season. The 79-point victory set program record for total points scored in a single game. The Eagles third game of the season was a road contest against 23rd ranked WisconsinGreen Bay. The Eagles would score first on a layup from sophomore forward Olivia Fouty, but things seemed to fall apart from there. EMU shot just 25 percent from the field, while Green Bay hit on 46.0 percent of its shots. Perhaps as telling as the gap in shooting percentage was the 23 Eagle turnovers that led to 38 points for the Phoenix. The Green and White got back on track with their next game at Loyola-Chicago. Senior forward Paige Redditt led the way with her fifth career double-double scoring 17 points and bringing down a career-best 18 rebounds to go along with three assists. The effort on the boards was crucial, as EMU out-rebounded Loyola, 46-26, on its way to a 63-55 victory. After a close win against Cornell, the Eagles traveled to Buffalo, N.Y. to play the Golden Griffins of Canisius. Sophomore forward Natachia Watkins led the way this time, scoring 16 second half points to finish with a game-high 21 in the Eagles 65-53 94

win. EMU struggled for the next month, playing around the .500 mark, including three overtime losses against Michigan State, MissouriKansas City and Detroit. Sandwiched between those OT losses, came the teams second consecutive win over Michigan in a rematch from the WNIT last season. The Green and White proved that the win last season was no fluke, winning 77-64. The game also saw another record-breaking performance from James. The 2012 Pomeroy Naismith Award winner scored 38 points on her way to the EMU all-time career scoring record. The first conference game of the season was a road trip to Ball State. The Eagles struggled offensively, shooting just 29.0 percent from the field as they fell to an 0-1 record in MAC play, dropping the game by a score of 54-51. Just when it seemed as though the EMU women may be in line for a disappointing season, the team caught fire. It all began with a matchup, Jan. 8, against the Huskies of Northern Illinois. The team was led by a 17 point, eight rebound effort from Redditt, who also blocked two shots and moved into second place on the EMU career blocked shots list. Despite the turnover-plagued first half, the game was never in doubt as the Eagles won 64-52. The win restored the team’s confidence and the women of Eastern Michigan went on to win 14 of the next 16 games to finish out the regular season, including a nine-game win streak which covered Jan. 25 to Feb. 25. The most impressive win throughout the streak came, Jan. 28, at the Convocation Center against the Akron Zips. The Eagles dominated their opponent from start to finish on their way to a 91-46 victory. The EMU offense was explosive as usual, shooting nearly 45 percent from the field, while the defense held the Zips to 24.5 percent shooting (13 of 53). The next blowout victory of the season came on Feb. 11 in the Convocation Center against Kent State. James had another record-setting day, tying the MAC record for three-pointers made in a single game with 10. James finished with 40 points, nearly outscoring the Golden Flashes on her own. The Eagles cruised to an 83-47 demolition of KSU.

The 2011-12 Championship Run Next up for the Eagles was in-state rival Western Michigan University at University Arena in Kalamazoo, Mich. James again led the way with 30 points. EMU never trailed, playing smothering defense in holding the Broncos to a 28.8 shooting percentage. Eastern led 43-24 at halftime, and things did not change in the second half as EMU proved far too much for the Broncos cruising to an 83-56 victory. Three days later, the Eagles trekked to DeKalb, Ill. for a rematch against Northern Illinois. The beginning of the game was a true battle with six lead changes in the first half. With seven minutes left in the opening twenty, EMU found a rhythm and closed the half with an 18-8 run. The Eagles expanded their lead in the second half and won the game by a score of 77-57, their third consecutive win of 20 points or more. James led all scorers with 29 points, her 17th game of the season with at least 20 points. Watkins posted a double-double, scoring 18 with 12 rebounds. The Eagles came home next for a crucial matchup against the Toledo Rockets. Both teams entered the game tied for first place in the MAC West division, and a head-to-head match so late in the season would go a long way in deciding the division champion. The Eagles would post a 54-33 win over the Rockets to take a sole lead of the MAC West division. James led the Eagles with 20 points, while Watkins and Redditt each had double-figure scoring affairs. The last game of the win streak came at home against Ball State, Feb. 25. James again led all scorers with 23 points, and sophomore forward Fouty added 17 points and nine rebounds. The game guaranteed EMU at least a share of the MAC West Division title and avenged a 54-51 loss at Ball State earlier in the year. The second meeting between the two teams was not nearly as competitive, as the Eagles notched their fourth blowout victory in the last five games with a 74-43 win. The team was good enough during the regular season to secure the number two seed in the 2012 MidAmerican Conference Women’s Basketball Tournament. Earning the two-seed offered the Eagles an automatic bye to the semifinals of the tournament where Eastern faced its West Division co-champion Toledo. EMU trailed by a score of 51-41 with just 7:45 remaining in the game when things began to click. The Green and White finished the game on an 18-6 run to secure the team’s third win over Toledo on the season, 59-57. The win also secured the team’s second consecutive trip to the MAC Tournament Cham-

pionship Game. James again paced the team in scoring with 19. The senior was joined by sophomore Watkins, who added 19 of her own, 12 of which came in the second half. Next up would be a rematch against in-state rival Central Michigan with a trip to the NCAA Tournament on the line. In a close game, the Eagles needed just one field goal in the final 8:14 of play to dispatch fifthseeded Central Michigan University, 72-71, Saturday afternoon, March 10, in the championship game of the 2012 MidAmerican Conference Women’s Basketball Tournament at Quicken Loans Arena. Redditt stuffed home the gamewinning layup with 1.8 seconds left to earn the Eagles their first MAC title since 2004 and an automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament. Sophomore guard Desyree Thomas recorded 10 assists and four steals as the Eagles secured their second MAC Tournament Championship. James and Watkins were named to the MAC All-Tournament team and James also earned tournament MVP honors. The Eagles season ended a week later in West Lafayette, Ind. at the hands of the No. 5-seeded South Carolina Gamecocks. South Carolina played smothering defense, holding EMU to just 48 points, paced by Redditt with 14 points and 12 rebounds. The postseason game gave Redditt the opportunity to reach 1,000 career points, finishing with her final year with 1,001. EMU finished the season with a record of 23-9, one win away from tying the program record and earning the team’s second ever trip to the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament.

RETRIED JERSEYS #4 - Laurie Byrd

Laurie Byrd, who was the program's all-time leading scorer with 1,899 career points, became the first EMU women's basketball player to have her jersey hung in the Convocation Center rafters. She joins EMU men's basketball greats George Gervin, Grant Long, Kennedy McIntosh and Earl Boykins as the only other players to have the honor bestowed upon them. A prolific scorer while at EMU, Byrd remained the program's all-time leading scorer for 29 seasons. She is the only player in the program's history to lead her team in scoring and assists in each season in which she competed. Additionally, Byrd held EMU career records for scoring average (19.2 ppg), field goals made (854) and field goals attempted (1,788). Formerly an assistant coach for the WNBA's Washington Mystics, Byrd previously served as an assistant coach with the Houston Comets in 2008. In the 2007 season, she was the Comets' director of player personnel. Prior to heading to Houston, Byrd served as an assistant coach for three seasons (2003-2005) with the Detroit Shock, which included the 2003 WNBA Championship. She first entered the coaching ranks at the University of Detroit Mercy as an assistant for three seasons (1999-2002). Byrd had an extensive professional playing career in the American Basketball League and the Women's Basketball Association. She played on the San Jose Lasers and the Atlanta Glory with the ABL and played on the Kentucky Marauders and the Chicago Spirits with the WBL. Byrd also spent time playing overseas. She played seven seasons on numerous basketball clubs in Sweden, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. The Flint, Mich. native has received many awards and honors during her career, including being inducted into the E-Club Athletic Hall of Fame in 1993 and the AAU Hall of Fame in 1993. In 2003, she was the Think Detroit Honorary Double Goal Coach of the Year.
