Women's Basketball Pre-Season 2011-12 (Asst. SID Tammy DeGroff)

Mon, 26 Sep 2011 10:27:27 -0600

Hello Tiger fans...long time no chat. Where has time gone? Believe it or not, the women's basketball team opens practice on Monday, Oct. 3rd. That is the result of an NCAA Division I women's basketball rule change, so Memphis Madness will NOT be our first day of practice, so I thought I'd write a quick blog about the rule changes (and there are a bunch) for the 2011-12 season to get you all prepped for the season.

Italy Trip Countdown -- August 4th -- Asst. SID Tammy DeGroff

Good afternoon, or evening by the time I get this posted. As you may know, the team has started practice in preparation for the 10-day trip to Italy. The Tigers can have 10 days of practice, so they went Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and had today (Thursday) off. We are back at it again tomorrow with a two-a-day on Saturday (unlike the NFL, we didn't drop ours  ) and an off-day again on Sunday. I know folks are curious about the trip and the itinerary, so I just opted to do a little more informal blog entry on it rather than write a story for the website.

Just wanted to share some general Tiger information and thought a blog would be a little easier way to get everything in one post (as opposed to 140 characters on Twitter or a Facebook entry).

As the song says, "On the Road Again". That's where I'll be the next two weeks as basketball and baseball overlap. It's an annual ritual for me and many other broadcasters this time of year. It's a lot of travel but I love my job and wouldn't have it any other way.

The non-conference portion of our Women's Basketball season is done and we've finished at 11-3. The team is off to its best start in over a decade, but I still don't believe we've peaked yet, which is good.

It's good to be back home for a while, after two extended road trips with women's basketball the past two weekends in three different states.

It's hard to believe, but it's almost time! The Tigers will host an exhibition game against Christian Brothers University, Sunday, at 2 p.m. in the Elma Roane Fieldhouse. This will be one of just two games where you can see the Tigers in the on-campus gym, as the team will open the season at FedExForum on Nov. 12th against Missouri, then will come back to host Grambling State before playing the next five games on the road.

Sports season starts tonight for Memphis when the Women's Soccer team goes to Bowling Green, Kentucky to face WKU in an exhibition match. I'm looking forward to watching this group of Tigers in their quest for a fourth straight conference championship.

Good day all,

I spent all day yesterday updating the records section of the media guide and for that project, had to go through every box score from the season to update some single game records. That gave me the idea for this blog, some of the highs from this season. I don't know if I can get a Top 10 list out of it, but let's see.

Good day everyone,

I hope you all had a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend. I know the extra day off gave those of us in athletics a nice break and a chance to catch our breath before the first summer session of school ends later this week.

Good morning/afternoon/evening Tiger Fans!

Just a couple of housekeeping things right now and then obviously we are expecting news of the conference tournament's location in the next few hours (or next few days if it's not released until it's official through the University Presidents).
