Sorry, at this point there is no story, just a box score. I am sure okstate.com will hook me up with a one paragraph review soon..... :rolleyes:

Oklahoma State 86, Panhandle State 43

Whitney Pegram: 22 points 9 rebounds

Destanie Sykes: 21 points 10 rebounds

Shaunte Smith: 10 points 13 rebounds (This girl is good! I don't think she got the attention she deserved because there are so many talented freshmen in the Big 12 this year. I am really looking forward to the days when other fans in the conference get to see her play. She is quickly becoming my favorite.)

Catherria Turner: 8 points 10 assists

But my favorite number of the night is:
Attendance: 3,423

I realize that alot of that has to do with the fact that the they were playing a double-header with the men's team, but it was still so nice to see the student sections full during the women's game. It was also nice to hear people say, "Whoa! They look alot better than the last time I watched them." I think the biggest difference this year is that the Cowgirls have players that WANT TO SHOOT THE BALL. It isn't just about running plays to try to get an open shot for Conder/Stone/Skibbe anymore.

So 6'0" Sykes is starting at center over 6'5" Hood, and puts up those kinds of numbers? Wow! Good for her! And Pegram sure looks like a great pickup. Wonderful job off the bench.

Glad you're encouraged by what you're seeing in the Cowgirls. I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Actually, Pegram is the starting center. She was about to jump for the ball when the ref blew the whistle and everyone was looking around like, "What?" Apparently she forgot to remove one of her earings and had to check out of the game. Sykes was sent in to jump and Pegram immediately went back to check in.

Ah, now I see. At least Sykes got be a center for a moment! :)

Who has taken over Brittany Dietz's role of scrappy, undersized guard? She was really fun to watch.

That would be 5'6" Brisa Silva. She knocks down threes and is all over the floor and diving out of bounds on defense. I think that she really embodies the new mind set of the Cowgirls.
