The Matchup
The University of New Hampshire women's basketball team is the fifth seed of the 2013 America East Women's Basketball Championship and opens the tournament with a March 8 quarterfinal game against fourth-seeded Stony Brook University. The game, which will be streamed on ESPN3.com, is 6 p.m. at the University at Albany's SEFCU Arena.
The game will be broadcast live on The Wildcat Sports Radio Network from 6-7:30 p.m. and fans can listen to thegame in its entirety online.
UNH has a 17-10 lifetime record against Stony Brook, which swept the 2012-13 season series with a 48-44 win at Lundholm Gym (Jan. 5) and 60-47 victory at Pritchard Gymnasium (Feb. 2). Prior to this year, the Wildcats had won five straight vs. the Seawolves.
These programs have tipped off three times in America East postseason play – all were neutral-site games at the University of Hartford. SBU was a 65-54 winner in the 2002 semifinals, but the Wildcats prevailed 70-57 in the '03 quarterfinals and ousted the Seawolves from the '04 tourney in the first round with a 74-65 win.
In the Jan. 5 game, Chikilra Goodman grabbed a defensive rebound and went coast- to-coast to give Stony Brook a 47-44 lead with 40 seconds remaining. Goodman then grabbed another defensive rebound and made 1 of 2 free throws with 16 seconds to play to push the advantage to four points. The Seawolves' defensive effort kept the 'Cats at bay until Reed's layup with four seconds on the clock rolled off the rim. Goodman was once again in position for the rebound to secure the victory.
SBU won despite shooting 32% (9 of 29) from the foul line and not making a 3-pointer (0-for-4). The Seawolves shot 45.5% (20-44) from the floor while holding the Wildcats to 26.8% (15-56), including 14.3% (4-28) in the second half.
Goodman led all scorers with 18 points on 7 of 8 shooting from the floor and 4-for-8 from the foul line; she also recorded team highs in rebounds (seven), assists (four) and steals (three). Jessica Previlon added 12 points and four rebounds.
UNH was led offensively by Kelsey Hogan (12 points) and Elizabeth Belanger (11). Cari Reed recorded eight points, a game-high 11 rebounds and two blocks.
In the Feb. 2 rematch, SBU broke a 2-2 tie with a 7-0 run and New Hampshire never pulled even thereafter. The Seawolves led by 10 points midway through the first half and took a 37-26 lead into halftime. They extended the advantage to 14 points, 45-31, with 13:07 remaining in the game. UNH closed within 51-45 with 3:54 to play, but then committed a turnover and SBU outscored the 'Cats 9-2 the rest of the way to secure the victory.
Stony Brook made 17 of 30 field goal attempts (56.7%) in the first half to build its 11-point halftime lead. Sabre Proctor made 7 of 11 FGs and scored 17 points; Goodman followed with 11. UNH was led by Cari Reed (14 points) and Morgan Frame (12).
The State of New Hampshire
New Hampshire enters postseason play with a an 11-17 overall record that includes 6-10 in America East and 0-1 in neutral-site games as well as 4-11 in road games (2-6 in conference road games). The Wildcats went 5-5 the last 10 games of the regular season.
UNH ended the regular season with an 86-63 victory at Maine on Saturday, March 2. The win ended a two-game losing streak overall and a stretch of three consecutive road losses.
New Hampshire has followed last year's 16-win campaign with 11 wins so far this season. The last time UNH recorded back-to-back double-digit win seasons was in 2005 (15) and 2006 (15); 2006 was the last of 20 consecutive double-digit win seasons that started in 1987.
The Wildcats entered the week (through March 3) ranked in the Top 100 nationally (343 ranked) in scoring defense (#75; 56.9 ppg allowed) and turnovers per game (#96; 15.9); senior guard Cari Reed is 60th in 3-point field goal percentage (36.3%).
UNH has won back-to-back games just twice this season – Nov. 14 (57-51 at Yale) & Nov. 17 (68-65 at Holy Cross) and Jan. 26 (60-52 at Binghamton) & Jan. 29 (61-54 vs. Maine). The Wildcats have not won three consecutive games in 2012-13.
How We Got Here
UNH entered the last day of the regular season in seventh place but climbed into a tie for fourth place with its 86-63 win at Maine combined with losses by UMBC, Stony Brook and Vermont.
UMBC won the four-way tiebreaker to earn the No. 3 seed, then Stony Brook held the tiebreak advantage against UNH and UVM for the No. 4 seed. In the last remaining tie, the Wildcats topped UVM to garner the No. 5 seed and send the Catamounts to No. 6.
What Just Happened
UNH recorded season highs in points, field goals (35), 3-point field goals (nine) and rebounds (55) in an 86-63 victory at the University of Maine on Saturday, March 2.
The Wildcats went on an early 13-0 run to build a 17-6 lead. They led by as many as 13 points in the first half before Maine closed within 42-34 at the half. UNH's advantage ballooned to 51-36 in the opening minutes of the second half, but the Black Bears battled back one more time to trim the margin to 53-46. The 'Cats put the game out of reach with an 11-1 spurt the next four minutes.
UNH, which did not attempt a first-half free throw, made 7 of 9 foul shots. Maine went 13-for-21 from the line. The teams combined to attempt 47 3-pointers with UNH shooting 9-for-22 (40.9%) and UM hitting 6 of 25 (24.0%).
Junior guard Kelsey Hogan recorded her first career double-double with 15 points and a career-high 11 rebounds. She shot 6-for-11 from the floor, including 3 of 5 3-pointers, and also finished with five assists and two steals. Senior guard netted a team-high 18 points on the strength of four 3-pointers to climb to No. 17 on the program's all-time points list (932); she also tallied six rebounds.
What Happens Next
With a victory Friday vs. Stony Brook, UNH's March Madness would continue with a semifinal matchup against top-seeded and host school Albany on Sunday, March 10. Game time is 30 minutes following the conclusion of the 11 a.m. semifinal.
Not Very Neutral
New Hampshire played just one neutral-site game during the regular season, and that was a 60-53 loss to Quinnipiac University at the Brown Basketball Invitational on Dec. 1 – the sixth game of the season.
Friday's quarterfinal game at Albany will be the first neutral-site game in 2012-13 for Stony Brook.

'Cat Clips
Four Wildcats scored in double digits March 2 at Maine – Cari Reed (18), Kelsey Hogan (15), Morgan Frame (10) and Ariel Gaston (10). That hadn't occurred since the second game of the season at Holy Cross.
The starting lineup at Maine, which included that quartet of double-digit scorers and Elizabeth Belanger (nine points), combined to shoot 25 of 47 (53.2%) from the floor, 8 of 18 (44.4%) from 3-point range and 4-for-5 (80.0%) from the foul line.
Junior guard Kelsey Hogan recorded her first career double-double with 15 points and career-high 11 rebounds at Maine. It marked the team's first double-double since Jan. 19 (Cari Reed– 22pts, 13 rebs). No Wildcat recorded double-digit rebounds in February; the most recent 10+ rebound effort was Jan. 29 vs. Maine (Morgan Frame, 12).
Sophomore point guard Ariel Gaston recorded career high point efforts each of the last two regular-season games with nine vs. Albany (Feb. 27) and 10 at Maine (March 2).
Freshman forward Kendall Martenet played 11 minutes off the bench at Maine to record a career-high six rebounds; she also scored four points.
Freshman guard Victoria Duffey scored her first career points with a 3-pointer in the closing minutes at Maine last Saturday. She also hit a pair of free throws to finish with five points.
In seven games since returning to the starting lineup (Feb. 6 vs. Vermont), Kelsey Hogan is averaging a team-high 13.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game. She is shooting 47.8% (32-67) from the floor, including 46.4% (13-28) from 3-point range, the past seven games.
Ariel Gaston has been quietly effective the past 12 games. She is averaging 4.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in 31.7 minutes during this stretch, which dates back to Jan. 19.
Senior forward Morgan Frame has climbed atop the team leaderboard in rebounding at 6.9 per game (she has a team-high 193 rebounds). Frame has been very consistent of late with eight rebounds at UMBC (Feb. 13) followed by back-to-back nine-rebound efforts against Boston U. (Feb. 16) and Hartford (Feb. 20); she pulled down eight boards vs. Albany (Feb. 27) and six in just 17 minutes of the regular-season finale at Maine.
Frame's point production has been equally consistent during that span. She scored 12 points vs. both Hartford and Stony Brook (Feb. 2) and netted nine points each of the three games in between. Frame netted a team-high 16 points vs. Albany and finished with 10 points at Maine.
UNH's longest active streak for consecutive starts belongs to Frame (48 games).
Lock Down Defense
UNH limited the opposition to less than 60 points in six consecutive games before Maine scored 63 in the regular-season finale. The previous opponent to reach that mark was Stony Brook (60-47 loss on Feb. 2).
Only two opponents have scored 70 or more points vs. the Wildcats this season. Albany netted 78 points Jan. 16 at SEFCU Arena and Colgate University scored 72 points in an 11-point home win.
Milestone Watch
Two Wildcats are in the top 10 in 3-pointers made. Senior shooting guard Cari Reed ascended into the top 5 at the Brown Bear Basketball Classic with the first of her four 3-pointers vs. Quinnipiac and reached the 150 milestone Jan. 19 vs. Boston U. Reed is currently No. 3 at 170.
Junior point guard Kelsey Hogan reached the 100 milestone Feb. 6 at home against Vermont with the last of her 4-for-4 effort and then climbed into a tie for 10th with four more 3s at UMBC on Feb. 13. Hogan is also No. 12 in career assists with 271; she tallied #250 Feb. 2 at Stony Brook.
Listings for Reed
If the season ended today, Cari Reed would have the second best single-season free throw percentage in school history at 86.2% (50-58), and that includes 91.2% (31-34) in America East conference action. The top overall mark of 90.0% was established by Kathy Ladd in '80-81.
Reed's 53 3-pointers is the fourth highest single-season total in program history. She tied the second-best mark of 58 as a sophomore in the 2010-11 season.
Reed climbed into the Top 20 on UNH's career points leaderboard during her 11-point effort Feb. 27 vs. Albany and enters the tourney at No. 17 with 932 career points. Directly ahead is Heidi Plencner (1998-2002), who finished with 1,000 career points.

Clutch Performer
Senior shooting guard Cari Reed has been a clutch performer for the 'Cats this season and was named co-captain in mid-December; she missed consecutive games (Feb. 13 at UMBC and Feb. 16 at Boston U.) before returning to action with 16 minutes off the bench vs. Hartford (Feb. 20). In that limited time, Reed missed all four field goal attempts, including three 3-pointers, and went 1-for-2 from the foul line for one point; she also tallied two rebounds, one assist and one steal.
In the Jan. 26 game at Binghamton University, she helped secure the 60-52 victory by making 5 of 6 free throws in a 31-second span (from 1:12 to 41 seconds) in which the score advanced from 55-48 to the final of 60-52.
Against UMBC on Jan. 9, Reed went 4-for-4 from the foul line in the last 16 seconds to extend New Hampshire's lead from 58-56 to 62-56 and help secure a 63-62 victory.
In the season opener at Yale, Reed pulled down a defensive rebound with nine seconds remaining and secured the 57-51 victory by hitting both foul shots with five seconds to play. Then in the next game at Holy Cross on Nov. 17, Reed lifted UNH to a 68-65 victory by hitting a 3-pointer with three seconds on the clock. Against Cornell (Nov. 25), she hit a pair of free throws with nine seconds remaining to extend UNH's lead to three points and the final margin of 59-56.
Reed leads the team in scoring (12.6 ppg), 3-point field goals made (53) and attempted (146) and minutes (33.8 mpg). She is second in rebounding (6.6 per game), field goals made (112) and attempted (272), blocks (14) and both free throws made (50) and attempted (58); she is also third in assists (38).
In 14 America East conference games, her numbers are 12.6 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 1.2 apg, 1.0 steals and 0.6 blocks per game in 33.1 mpg.
Reed has been the team's top scorer 14 times, and the top rebounder 10 times. She has seven double-digit rebounding efforts; the rest of the team has eight double-digit rebound games. Reed also has five of the team's nine double-doubles on the season.
She scored a team-high 18 points, which marked her best since netting 22 points vs. Boston U. on Jan. 19), in last Saturday's regular-season finale at Maine. She hit four 3-pointers and pulled down six rebounds.
Reed returned to the starting lineup for Senior Night against Albany on Feb. 27; she finished with 11 points and three steals. One game earlier vs. Binghamton (Feb. 23), Reed came off the bench to lead the team in scoring with 13 points in 29 minutes. She made 4 of 9 field goals, including 3-for-6 from 3-point range.
Framework for Success
Senior forward Morgan Frame was selected to the America East Preseason All-Conference Team at the league's Media Day in late October.
Frame leads the team in rebounding (6.9 rpg), field goals made (117) and attempted (285), free throws made (68) and attempted (104) and is atop the steals leaderboard with 25. She ranks second in scoring (10.8 ppg) as well as third in minutes (27.9 per game) and fourth in assists (35).
In 16 America East conference games, Frame is averaging 11.1 ppg, 7.1 rpg and 1.6 apg in 29.4 mpg.
Frame has been very consistent of late with eight rebounds at UMBC (Feb. 13) followed by back-to-back nine-rebound efforts against Boston U. (Feb. 16) and Hartford (Feb. 20); she pulled down eight boards vs. Albany (Feb. 27) and six in just 17 minutes of the regular-season finale at Maine.
Frame's point production has been equally consistent during that span. She scored 12 points vs. both Hartford and Stony Brook (Feb. 2) and netted nine points each of the three games in between. Frame netted a team-high 16 points vs. Albany and finished with 10 points at Maine.
UNH's longest active streak for consecutive starts belongs to Frame (48 games).
The 6-foot-1 forward matched her career high of 12 rebounds, including four on the offensive glass, against Maine on Jan. 29. She also matched her personal best of four assists the third consecutive game.
Frame scored a season-high 23 points (8-14 FGs, 7-8 FTs) and also tallied eight rebounds, four assists, three steals and a blocked shot to propel UNH to a 60-52 victory at Binghamton (Jan. 26). The seven free throws are a career high. Frame set the tone in the game by scoring 10 of the team's initial 14 points; after the Bearcats closed within 51-46, she made two fouls shots and then assisted on a layup in less than a minute to extend the margin to nine points.
One game earlier at Hartford (Jan. 23), Frame helped fuel UNH's late comeback effort. She recorded seven points and two rebounds as the Wildcats trimmed a 13-point deficit to 54-52 spanning 6:20. Frame finished the game with 14 points, eight rebounds, two steals and four assists.
In the Jan. 19 against BU at Lundholm Gym, Frame was once again instrumental in sparking UNH's late comeback effort in which the Wildcats closed the game on a 15-1 run. She tallied four points, two rebounds and an assist during that spurt; her defensive rebounds, assist and layup helped ignite the rally.
Frame propelled UNH to a 63-62 victory against UMBC (Jan. 9 at Lundholm Gym) with 20 points and 12 rebounds to record her second double-double of the season and ninth of her Wildcat career. Frame was highly efficient from the floor (8 of 11) and the 12 rebounds matched her personal best. During UNH's decisive 10-2 spurt late in the second half, Frame scored one point and pulled down five rebounds.
Captain of the 'Cats
Junior guard Kelsey Hogan is co-captain of the 2012-13 UNH Wildcats; last year, she was a co-captain alongside Denise Beliveau and started all 30 games. Hogan is a multiple threat in the backcourt – as the quarterback of the offense, she is strong on the dribble and an excellent passer; she is also an accurate jumpshooter who led not only the team but the America East conference in 3-point field goal percentage (.446; 41-for-92) a year ago.
Hogan recorded her first career double-double in the March 2 regular-season finale at Maine with 15 points and a personal-best 11 rebounds; she also had a game-high five assists while shooting 6 of 11 from the floor, included 3-for-5 from 3-point range.
In seven games since returning to the starting lineup (Feb. 6 vs. Vermont), Kelsey Hogan is averaging a team-high 13.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game. She is shooting 47.8% (32-67) from the floor, including 46.4% (13-28) from 3-point range, the past seven games.
Hogan, who has missed seven games (Nov. 25 & 28; Jan. 16-19-23-26-29), enters the America East tourney as the team leader in assists (68; 3.2 apg); she is third in scoring (9.7 ppg) as well as fourth in rebounding (3.9 rpg). She is second in minutes per game (32.7), 3-pointers made (23) and 3-point field goal percentage (.311).
Hogan matched her career high of 20 points Feb. 13 at UMBC. She matched her personal best of four 3-pointers for the second consecutive game to climb into a tie for 10th place on the program's career leaderboard (with 104).
The Feb. 6 game vs. Vermont will be one to remember for Hogan, who made her return to the starting lineup and played 25 minutes against the Catamounts. Hogan recorded her 100th career 3-pointer made with the last of her four 3s on the night; she made all six field goal attempts to become the first Wildcat since Jan. 29, 2005 to shoot 100% from the floor (minimum five attempts); Ebony Woods was 6-for-6 back on that day. Hogan also pulled down a team-high four rebounds.
One game earlier at Stony Brook University (Feb. 2), Hogan reached another personal milestone by recording her 250th career assist. She is the 13th Wildcat to attain that number.
Kaylee Killa
Sophomore forward Kaylee Kilpatrick started 15 consecutive games before coming off the bench for the Feb. 27 Senior Night game against Albany; she has been on the court for 22 of 28 opening tipoffs. She is averaging 7.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.0 blocks and 24.5 minutes per game. Kilpatrick leads the team – and is No. 6 in the America East conference – in field goal percentage at 46.4%; she ranks first on the squad in blocks (27) as well as third in rebounding and fourth in scoring.
Kilpatrick has recorded multiple blocks in eight games, including a stretch of four consecutive games spanning Jan. 23 through Feb. 2 with 11 blocks in that time.
In 16 America East games, Kilpatrick averaged 7.3 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 1.3 apg, 1.1 blocks and 0.7 steals in 24.9 minutes per game.
Kilpatrick recorded eight points, six rebounds and three assists in 14 minutes off the bench against Maine in the regular-season finale last Saturday. She finished with 10 points (4-7 FGs; 2-3 FTs) and four rebounds in UNH's 51-49 victory against Hartford on Feb. 20.
In the Feb. 6 game against Vermont, Kilpatrick was efficient at the offensive end of the court with 10 points on 3 of 4 field goals and 4-for-4 shooting from the foul line. She also recorded three rebounds, two assists, one steal and a block in 24 minutes.
The 6-foot-4 forward re-wrote her record book in January. She ended the month with a career-high four blocks and tied a career high of two steals against Maine (Jan. 29). Kilpatrick previously recorded a career-high 12 rebounds as part of UNH's 44-29 edge on the boards at Binghamton (Jan. 26) – she also tallied eight points, two blocks and a steal vs. the Bearcats.
One game earlier, Kilpatrick netted a personal-best 19 points on 9 of 12 shooting from the floor Jan. 23 at the University of Hartford. Her other stats included three blocks and two steals. During UNH's 15-4 spurt that trimmed the deficit to 54-52 with 1:29 remaining at Hartford, Kilpatrick recorded five points, two assists and two blocks.
Kilpatrick tallied three blocks Jan. 2 at Vermont and she led the team in assists with three. It marked the second consecutive game Kilpatrick led the 'Cats in assists – she tallied a career-high four at Colgate University (Dec. 29).
She also led the team in assists (two) in the Jan. 16 game at Albany and matched a personal best of six free throws that game by going 6-for-6 at the foul line.
Taking Point
Sophomore point guard Ariel Gaston played every regular-season game and was in the starting lineup 16 times, including a stretch of 13 consecutive games that ended on Senior Night – Feb. 27 against Albany.
In her 15 starts, Gaston is averaging 3.9 ppg, 3.3 rpg and 2.4 apg in 28.9 minutes per game. In the past 12 games, she is averaging 4.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in 31.7 minutes. Overall, her numbers include 3.6 ppg, 3.2 rpg, and 2.0 apg in 23.0 mpg.
Gaston recorded career high point efforts each of the last two regular-season games with nine vs. Albany (Feb. 27) and 10 at Maine (March 2). She also matched her season best of seven rebounds in 19 minutes off the bench against Albany.
She finished with five points, six rebounds, two assists and two steals – as well as just two turnovers – in 34 minutes of action to help the Wildcats upend Hartford, 51-49, on Feb. 20.
Gaston recorded a season-high seven rebounds Feb. 16 at Boston University. She also finished with a team-high four assists for the second consecutive game.
In the Jan. 29 game versus Maine, Gaston scored eight points and matched her career high in steals (three). She also contributed four rebounds, four assists and a block while committing just one turnover in 33 minutes.
Dial from long distance
In 16 America East conference games, UNH made 29.9% of its 3-pointers by making 70 of 234 attempts; that percentage, which ranks fifth in the league, was boosted by an 8 of 13 (61.5%) performance Feb. 6 against Vermont; – in comparison, the 'Cats were a combined 8 of 35 (22.9%) the previous two games.
UNH made a season-high nine 3-pointers last Saturday at Maine. New Hampshire also shot well from 3-point distance with an 8 of 18 (44.4%) effort Jan. 19 at home vs. Boston U.
Overall, the 'Cats have made 117 of 431 3-pointers, which is a mark of 27.1% that is seventh in America East.
With senior guard Cari Reed and junior guard Kelsey Hogan entering the season shooting 36.2% and 41.5%, respectively, from 3-point range, one wouldn't expect the UNH Wildcats to have many games struggling to make a 3-pointer.
New Hampshire went 0-for-17 from 3-point range against Central Connecticut State at Lundholm Gym on Dec. 9 with Reed and Lauren Wells missing six 3-pointers and Hogan attempting four 3-point shots; Jilliane Friel accounted for the other 3-point field goal attempt.
That game marked the second time through nine games that UNH did not make a 3-point shot. The Wildcats were 0-for-7 from 3-point range in the Nov. 14 season opener at Yale.
Prior to this season, the last time the 'Cats did not make a 3-point field goal was Feb. 25, 2009, when they missed all 15 shots from beyond the arc against Stony Brook University at Lundholm Gym (50-49 win).
Going Back to the Wells Again
Another player with starting experience is senior guard Lauren Wells, who utilizes her quickness and athleticism to drive past defenders – and be a disruptive force at the other end of the court as a defender – but she can also hit the mid-range jumper.
Wells missed the entire 2012 season due to injury, but she started 21 of 29 games in 2011 as a junior and was in the starting lineup all 31 games in '10. In her junior season, Wells ranked third on the team in steals, fourth in assists and fifth in scoring; she also led the team in free throw percentage and ranked ninth in America East in 3-point field goal percentage.
Wells, who has been in the starting lineup 12 times – including eight consecutive games spanning Dec. 1 to Jan. 2 – scored a season-high 11 points Dec. 17 against Wagner College. She made 4 of 9 field goal attempts and that included 2-for-6 from 3-point range.
Wells is averaging 3.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 21.5 minutes per game. In 16 America East conference games (three starts), her numbers are 1.8 ppg, 1.4 rpg and 17.3 mpg.
Friel-ing good
Senior shooting guard Jilliane Friel, who was sidelined the opening two weeks of the season due to injury, made her 2012-13 season debut in the Nov. 25 home opener vs. Cornell, and she was even pressed into the role of point guard due to the Wildcats' injury and foul trouble.
In 15 minutes, Friel contributed across the board with three points, two rebounds, one steal and four assists, which matched her career high.
Friel was once again thrust into the role of point guard Jan. 16 at Albany and played a season-high 28 minutes (she had played a total of 27 minutes in her previous seven appearances spanning 10 UNH games). She finished that game with three points – all on free throws –, two rebounds, one assist and one block.
Friel saw just nine minutes of action off the bench Jan. 19 vs. BU, but was on the floor when the Wildcats closed the last 3:21 of the game on a 15-1 run (in a 55-53 loss). During that spurt, Friel grabbed two defensive rebounds when BU missed the front end of two 1-and-1s and she also hit a 3-pointer.
Friel was also on the floor when UNH made its late comeback the next game at Hartford (Jan. 23), and it was her 3-pointer that ignited the 15-4 run that reduced the deficit to two points, 54-52, with 89 seconds to play.
Of the four players who came off the bench Jan. 29 against Maine, Friel was the only one to play double-digit minutes (12). She contributed two points, one rebound and two assists.
Friel scored a season-high five points (2-3 FGs, including 1-1 3-pointers) in eight minutes of action Feb. 13 at UMBC. She pulled down a season-high four rebounds Feb. 16 at Boston U.; that total matched her career high.
In her last game at Lundholm Gym (Feb. 27 vs. Alban7), Friel made her first career start. She tallied two points, three rebounds an assist and two steals in 22 minutes.
Friel is averaging 1.5 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 9.5 minutes per game (22 games played). In 14 America East conference games, her numbers include 1.6 ppg, 1.3 rpg and 0.9 apg in 11.4 minutes per game.
The UNH women's basketball program welcomed four newcomers to the 2012-13 squad and that includes sophomore center Corinne Coia, who transferred following her freshman year (2011-12) at the University of Rhode Island; she is ineligible to play for the Wildcats this season.
Kendall Martenet is the other new addition to the frontcourt. The 6-2 forward was a three-time captain at Mukwonago High School, where she led the team in rebounding as a junior and senior.
Martenet is averaging 1.4 ppg and 1.5 rpg in 6.2 minutes per game (20 games played); she was sidelined by injury for four games (Dec. 17 to Jan. 2) and has played each of the last 10 games.
Martenet has been productive as a viable option off the bench the past month. In the March 2 regular-season finale at Maine, she recorded four points and personal-best six rebounds in 11 minutes.
In the Feb. 6 game vs. Vermont, she scored six points with a personal-best 4 of 4 effort from the foul line. She also pulled down three rebounds in a career-high 12 minutes off the bench.
In limited action at Stony Brook (Feb. 2), Martenet tallied two points, two rebounds and a block in four minutes. One game earlier against Maine (Jan. 29), she recorded two points and two rebounds in six minutes.
Elizabeth Belanger and Victoria Duffey joined the Wildcat backcourt. Belanger garnered ESPN Boston All-State Team and Boston Herald All-Scholastic Team, Lowell Sun Player of the Year and Dual County League MVP accolades at Acton-Boxborough Regional High School.
Belanger, who started six consecutive games (Nov. 20 to Dec. 5) and 10 of the last 13, is averaging 6.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 23.9 minutes per game (28 games played; 17 starts).
In 16 America East conference games (10 starts), her numbers were 6.0 ppg, 3.6 rpg and 1.3 apg in 23.9 mpg.
Belanger ended the regular season with nine points, four rebounds and four assists (matched her career high) at Maine. Prior to that, she was held scoreless the previous two games against Binghamton (missed all three field goal attempts) and Albany (0-for-2 in nine minutes off the bench).
In the Feb. 16 game at Boston U., Belanger matched her career high with a team-high 12 points. She shot 3 of 6 from 3-point range to establish a personal best in 3-pointers.
Belanger set a career high of 12 points in UNH's 67-45 win against Vermont at Lundholm Gym on Feb. 6. She shot 5-for-9 from the field, and that included 2 of 3 on 3-pointers. Belanger's other stats included three rebounds, three assists and a steal in 24 minutes off the bench.
Duffey comes to UNH from Waterford Our Lady of the Lakes after lettering at Walled Lake Central High School for three years. She was a three-year starting point guard and two-time captain at Walled Lake Central, where she earned three All-Conference and two Academic All-State accolades.
Duffey has seen limited action off the bench in 13 games; she ended a streak of nine consecutive DNPs Feb. 2 at Stony Brook, where she entered the game in the final minute of both halves. Prior to that, Duffey had not seen game action since Dec. 22 at Cleveland State.
She scored her first collegiate points in the last game of the regular season at Maine last Saturday when she hit a 3-pointer in the closing minutes; moments later, she hit two free throws to finish with five points in three minutes played. She is averaging 2.9 minutes per game with a season-high of nine at Holy Cross.
Forward Reserve
Sophomore forward Stephanie Spoto has come off the bench in all 28 games this season. She is averaging 2.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 10.7 minutes per game. Spoto closed the regular season (March 2 at Maine) with seven points and six rebounds, as well as an assist and two steals, in 17 minutes.
Feb. 6 at UMBC, Spoto made 3 of 5 field goals for six points in 16 minutes. She finished with two points and two rebounds in 18 minutes at Boston U. (Feb. 16).
Spoto scored a career-high nine points against the Wagner Seahawks on Dec. 17. She had not attempted a free throw in her Wildcat career prior to that game and went 7-for-10 from the foul line. Spoto also recorded four rebounds and a steal in the game.
Spoto pulled down a career-high eight rebounds and was credited with two steals vs. Dartmouth (Dec. 5).
Assist Me
UNH finished with 22 assists on 29 field goals in the 68-65 victory at Holy Cross (Nov. 17), and that assist total marked the highest by the Wildcats since Jan. 29, 2003, when New Hampshire tallied 23 assists in a 76-70 loss at Vermont; the last time the 'Cats recorded 20+ assists was Jan. 10, 2009 at UMBC.
In the two subsequent games following that 22-assist effort at Holy Cross, UNH had a combined 21 assists.
The 'Cats recorded double-digit assists a total of 18 times in the regular season and that includes 20 at Maine last Saturday. They tallied the third highest mark of 15 twice in a three-game span – Feb. 6 vs. Vermont and Jan. 29 against Maine; in between, UNH recorded 12 assists on 16 field goals (at Stony Brook).
New Hampshire was credited with a season-low four assists in the 43-32 loss to Central Connecticut State (Dec. 9), and that marked the lowest total by the Wildcats since Feb. 4, 2009, when they tallied four assists vs. Hartford; UNH also finished with four assists earlier in the 2008-09 season against Canisius (Dec. 20).
Wildcats on the Air
The Wildcat Sports Radio Network broadcasted a total of 13 UNH women's basketball regular-season games during the 2012-13 season and will air the games of the America East Championships.

Scouting the Seawolves
Stony Brook University comes into the America East Championship as the No. 4 seed with a regular season record of 14-15 with a 6-10 mark in America East that tied for fourth in the standings. SBU ended the regular season with back-to-back losses and went 3-7 the last 10.
Most recently, the Seawolves fell to the No. 1 seed University at Albany, 60-49. Junior guard Chikilra Goodman scored a game-high, career-best 19 points while sophomore forward Sabre Proctor netted 15 points. SBU outscored Albany 26-25 in the second half of play but it was not enough to overcome the 12 point lead Albany built by halftime.
Proctor has been the Seawolves most consistent point scorer this season averaging 10.9 points per game and has a .783 free throw percentage that is third best in the America East. Another standout has been senior forward Jessica Previlon, who has the top field goal percentage on the team at .500, is second on the team in points per game (9.4) and is averaging 8.0 rebounds per game, which puts her at fourth in the conference. Goodman ranks third in scoring (8.9 ppg) and second in rebounding (6.6 rpg).
In the America East conference, Stony Brook is seventh in offense (53.2 ppg) and fourth in defense (55.5 ppg) as well as second in rebounding margin (+3.8), fifth in FG% (.377) and last in FT% (.601).
The Matchup vs. Albany
UNH has a 14-12 lifetime record against Albany, which swept both games this season to extend its winning streak vs. the Wildcats to four games. New Hampshire's most recent win vs. UA was Feb. 3, 2011 – 60-46 at Lundholm Gym. The Wildcats have a 5-7 road record in the series and have lost three straight at SEFCU Arena dating back to their 87-77 win Jan. 22, 2010.
These programs have tipped off twice in the America East tournament. UNH prevailed 68-48 in a 2005 quarterfinal matchup at Hartford, whereas the Great Danes ousted the Wildcats from the 2007 tourney in the first round with a 64-61 first-round win at Binghamton.
In the Jan. 16 matchup at SEFCU Arena, which was also on ESPN3, Albany raced out to a 7-0 lead before UNH responded with five consecutive points to close within 7-5. The Great Danes edged ahead 19-10, extended the advantage to double digits (23-12) midway through the first half and quickly pulled away with a 15-0 run in a span of 3:30 to build a 38-14 lead. Albany led 42-20 at halftime en route to the 78-43 victory. UA recorded a 45-25 rebounding advantage and shot 52.5% (31 of 59) from the floor while limiting the Wildcats to 24.4% (10-41).
In the Feb. 27 rematch at Lundholm Gym (UNH's Senior Night), New Hampshire led 30-18 at halftime but Albany rallied for a 55-46 victory. Both teams struggled in the opening five minutes of the game as UA held a 4-3 lead before the Wildcats built a double-digit lead of 21-10 at 7:28. The Great Danes came out strong in the second half to trim the deficit to four points, but UNH answered back to reestablish a double-digit advantage of 36-26 at 13:26. Albany went on an 18-0 run the next eight minutes to grab a 44-36 lead with 4:35 remaining. The 'Cats did not get closer than four points the rest of the way. Morgan Frame tallied 16 points and eight rebounds for UNH, while the Great Danes' Megan Smith proved unstoppable with 20 points (9 of 14 FGs).
Scouting the Great Danes
Top-seeded Albany finished the regular season at 25-3 overall with an unbeaten mark of 16-0 in America East and 11-1 at home. Currently the team is on a 17-game winning streak and was not slowed down in their last outing vs. Stony Brook, winning the affair by a score of 60-49.
Ebone Henry , a senior guard/forward, led the team to victory scoring 15 points, while senior forward Julie Forster grabbed a game-high eight rebounds.
Henry leads the team with 14.3 points per game, which is second in the conference. Forster is third in the America East – first on the team – with 8.1 rebounds per game. Senior guard Lindsey Lowrie has the best 3-point field goal percentage on the team at .427, which is the best in the America East.
In the America East conference, Albany is atop the leaderboard in offense (67.4 ppg), defense (48.6 ppg), FG% (.451), 3-pt FG% (.365), rebounding margin (+10.7), assists (15.3 apg) and steals (12.0 per game).

The Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority (ISCBA), the Indiana Department of Administration and the Indianapolis Colts have entered a new agreement for parking facilities. The Colts will be allowed to use parking spaces at the State Parking Garage at the corner of Maryland and West Streets for up to ten years, starting in the 2008 season.
Source: Inside INdiana Business
The new agreement increases the number of spaces provided to the Colts on game days and negates the need for construction of a new parking facility.
Press Release
Indianapolis, Ind. -- The Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority (ISCBA) announced today that it has reached an agreement with the Indianapolis Colts and Indiana Department of Administration that will permit the Colts to use parking spaces at the State Parking Garage at the corner of Maryland and West Streets for up to ten years, starting in the 2008 season.
The new plan modifies an agreement signed with the Colts in 2005 to provide 3,000 parking spaces at the new Lucas Oil Stadium. Due to a change in circumstances, the ISCBA will now provide approximately 2,000 surface parking spaces at the new stadium site, and 1,500 spaces at the State Parking Garage.
�We have been working for several months to come up with a way to meet the obligation to provide parking for the Colts.� said ISCBA Chairman, David R. Frick. �We are pleased to now have an agreement that is satisfactory to the Colts, is a financially prudent solution for us and which fits within our budget.�
This agreement increases the number of spaces provided to the Colts on game days and utilizes the existing resources of the State Garage for ten years, rather than currently constructing a new parking facility. Parking spaces contemplated in the original stadium site plan were lost due to agreements reached with the N.K. Hurst Company and Downtown U.S. Post Office.
According to Frick, the original agreement obligated the ISCBA to provide two spaces to the Colts for every one of the 3,000 spaces not available at the stadium. �The Colts agreed to reduce that requirement to 1.5 for every space not at the site, which means the State Parking Garage spaces can be used to fulfill the obligation,� said Frick.
Tamara Zahn, President of Indianapolis Downtown Inc., said, "The existing city parking infrastructure accommodates the crowds who will attend the Colts games and contributes to the energy of Downtown. The city has more than 66,000 existing parking spaces in the Downtown area. We are pleased that an effective parking solution has been found for the Colts utilizing the existing infrastructure."
The ISCBA is responsible for securing the stadium parking, even though management of the facility will be assumed by the city�s Capital Improvement Board of Managers of Marion County (CIB) when it is completed next August.
The ISCBA is the state agency responsible for financing, designing and constructing Lucas Oil Stadium and the Convention Center expansion. The expansion, which will be built where the RCA Dome is located, is expected to begin in 2008 and be finished by late 2010. Upon completion, the CIB will operate both facilities.

UK Remains in Sixth after Two Rounds of UCF Challenge
Feb. 10, 2014
ORLANDO, Fla. – Two rounds of play are in the books at the UCF Challenge and the University of Kentucky women's golf team remains in sixth place at four-over par, 580. The Wildcats posted a second round team score of one-over par, 289. Final round action begins Tuesday morning at 8:45 a.m. ET.
UCF continues to sit atop the standings at nine-under par, 567, while Miami (-7), Iowa State (-3), East Tennessee State (-2) and GRU Augusta (+3) complete the top five. UCF's Fanny Cnops leads all players at seven-under par, 137.
"We had another solid round today and we keep improving," said Kentucky head coach Golda Johansson Borst. "This golf course is set up well and the girls really like it. Overall, we have had two really steady days and we are looking forward to a third."
Sophomore Cylia Damerau recorded another steady day on Monday with an even-par, 72. Damerau registered pars on 16 of the 18 holes to go with one bogey and a birdie. Through two days, the Cham, Switzerland, native is tied for 19th at even-par, 144.
Sitting just a stroke behind Damerau is sophomore Sarah Harris at one-over par, 145 and tied for 23rd. Harris was Kentucky's biggest mover on the day as she climbed all the way from 66th place to 23rd. She turned in a three-under par, 69, on the day thanks in large part to a team-best five birdies, including three straight on holes No. 15, No. 16 and No. 17.
Freshman Alessandra Walker shot a three-over par, 75, to put her in a tie for 28th. Overall, Walker is two-over par, 146, through 36 holes.
Senior Liz Breed and freshman Haley Mills each sit tied for 45th at four-over par, 148. Breed put together a one-over par, 73, on the day, while Mills shot a three-over par, 75.
Playing as an individual, freshman Megan Kinney turned in a scorecard of seven-over par, 79, for the second straight day. Kinney is tied for 98th at 14-over par, 158.
Following the UCF Challenge, UK will compete in the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate in Hilton Head, S.C., from March 7-9. For more information on the University of Kentucky women's golf team please visit UKathletics.com and follow on Twitter @UKWomensGolf.

After seeing how most schools treat their college football trophies and artifacts, I am not shocked by this news at all. Even I have found college football trophies in the trash.
N.C. man discovers 1942 Rose Bowl trophy in garbage
By Yahoo Sports Staff
November 13, 2014 1:04 AM
Yahoo Sports Minute
Discovering a Rose Bowl trophy is one thing. But coming across a 1942 Rose Bowl trophy — a relic from the only time "The Granddaddy of Them All" wasn't played in Pasadena, Calif. — is something different altogether. But according to a report by ABC 11 news in Raleigh, N.C., that's exactly what happened to one lucky man.
The junk collector — who wished to remain anonymous — stumbled upon the piece of college football history four months ago while sifting through trash. The 1942 Rose Bowl between Duke and Oregon State was moved to Durham, N.C. due to a government ban on all large public gatherings on the West Coast of the United States in the wake of the Pearl Harbor attack. The Beavers beat the Blue Devils 20-16 at Duke's home stadium in front of 56,000 fans (some of which sat on borrowed bleachers from nearby University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill).
Even coaches on the losing side received hardware. The recovered item appears to have been originally awarded to then-Blue Devils backfield coach Eddie Cameron — the same Eddie Cameron who has an Indoor Stadium named after him.
The man plans to let Duke have the first chance to buy the trophy. After that, he says it will go to the highest bidder.
"The quarterfinals of the 1994 Texas State Championship is considered by many to be the greatest football game ever. Two undefeated high school teams came together at Texas Stadium and the winner would go on to win the state title.
Why are players, coaches and broadcasters still haunted by this game 20 years later?
Special thanks to Denny Garver, Eddy Clinton and the Plano East and John Tyler players and coaches for their cooperation with this project."

Today, Maryland defeated Penn State, 20-19. However, before the game, Maryland's team captains refused to shake hands with Penn State's team captains. I have watched a lot of college football in my life and I have never seen such a blatant act of unsportsmanlike conduct. It is my understanding that Maryland was flagged for this stunt, and I truly hope that was the case.
I won't rehash the specifics of the incident, as you can read about it on ESPN.com, ESPN.com (Big 10 Blog), SI.com, and BleacherReport.com (video).
**Update: Nov. 3, 2014 – The Big 10 Conference has fined Maryland $10K for its pre-game behavior. You can read more about this fine / punishment at Yahoo Sports and / or SI.com. You can also read the Big 10's official press release about this punishment at Big10.org (and I have also posted it below).
According to the press release, the conference did not specifically punish Maryland for the failure to shake hands prior to the game. However, it did call the behavior "exceptionally regrettable."
With Auburn ranked No. 3 and Ole Miss No. 4 in the first playoff poll, their game tonight was the first head-to-head match-up between two playoff bound teams. In other words, their game was essentially a playoff game, as I can only imagine that the winner would still be considered for one of the four playoff spots (the loser would have two losses, as both teams already had one loss entering the game).
Auburn ended up defeating Ole Miss, 35-31. It was a close game, so it will be interesting to see what the playoff committee does with Ole Miss in terms of how far down the rankings they move them. On the other hand, No. 2 Florida State struggled Thursday night against No. 25 Louisville and No. 1 Mississippi State struggled against Arkansas, so it will be interesting to see if the top three get shuffled.
Finally, No. 5 Oregon won their game against Stanford, 45-16. With No. 6 Alabama having a bye-week and No. 7 TCU winning 31-30 over No. 20 West Virginia, I can only imagine that Oregon will assume No. 4 playoff spot/rank.

For those of you who want to understand all of the idiosyncrasies of the playoff selection process, I would like to recommend two readings for you. Consider this your recommended reading list in your "Playoff 101″ course.
by Travis Normand
Yesterday, (28 Oct. 2014), the college football playoff committee released its first rankings for the 2014 season. You can see the rankings in PDF format HERE, or on their website HERE.
In the past, during the BCS era, I would make weekly observations of the BCS poll as it was released. I am going to try and do the same with the playoff poll.
Upon seeing the first playoff rankings, I was surprised to see Ole Miss (7-1) at number four. I have no problem with Ole Miss in the number four slot, but I thought their loss at LSU this past Saturday night would have put them further down the list. After all, LSU (7-2) comes in at 19 in this initial ranking.
If you are thinking that only the winner of the Ole Miss – Mississippi State game will get a playoff spot, think again!
Mississippi State (7-0) is ranked number one, and is scheduled to play Ole Miss on November 29. If these two schools meet with only one loss between them and still ranked in the top four of the playoff rankings, it will be interesting to see what happens if Ole Miss defeats Mississippi State. I mention this because if Ole Miss' loss to LSU isn't enough to knock them out of the top four, then logic would dictate that a Mississippi State loss to number four Ole Miss shouldn't be enough to knock Mississippi State out of the top four either. (In this scenario, it would be Mississippi State's first loss on the season, and losing to number four Ole Miss would be a better loss than losing to LSU).
While this is the first ranking of the season (and first ranking ever), there is a lot that could happen between now and Nov. 29. However, if this Mississippi scenario were to play out, it would be a good indicator for judging the playoff committee's consistency in terms of ranking teams.
Takeaway after one week of rankings:
While many probably didn't expect to see Ole Miss in the top four after their loss to LSU, it is apparent that the selection committee isn't going to "punish" teams for a loss like the AP and Coaches' Poll usually do. For example, before their loss to LSU, Ole Miss was ranked No. 3 in both the AP and Coaches' Poll. However, after their loss, Ole Miss dropped to No. 7 and No. 9, respectively. Despite these No. 7 and 9 rankings, Ole Miss debuted at No. 4 in the playoff poll.

Keep hackers from snooping
Q. How can I make sure that the sensitive websites I'm visiting are encrypted?
A. The address on an encrypted site will start with "https" instead of "http." Every banking site and most email and social sites you visit will be encrypted. Some sites might have encryption, but it isn't turned on by default. You could dive in to the account settings to find it. Or you can use the free HTTPS Everywhere browser extension. This forces any site that supports encryption to use it.
Secret Google tricks
Q. I need to know when my relative's flight is coming in. What's the easiest way to find out?
A. Actually, you can just use Google. Type the airline name and flight number into the search box. You'll instantly see the flight's arrival and departure status. Google even shows you terminal and gate number information. That isn't the only cool trick you can do with Google. Track your Christmas packages by entering the tracking number in Google Search. You don't need to go to the carrier's website anymore! Go to http://www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=15673 for 3 more incredible Google tricks you'll want to try.
Best video game console
Q. Should I buy our family the PlayStation 4, Xbox One or Wii U?
A. It depends on the age of your kids and how you want to use it. The PlayStation 4's high-end hardware is best for hard-core gamers who want that latest and greatest games. If you want a solid gaming experience and a full media center with hands-free control, the Xbox One is your pick. The Wii U has the best range of family-friendly games and classic franchises like Mario and Zelda.
Taking great smartphone photos
Q. I've seen people take some great iPhone pictures, but mine never turn out right. Any suggestions?
A. You bet. Start by holding the phone with two hands and using the volume control to snap the picture. This gives you more stability and reduces blurring. Before you snap, tap the screen where you want to focus. This will also set the exposure. Tap and hold to lock the focus and exposure for trickier shots that are backlit.

Best tablet for travelers
Q. What is the best tablet for someone who travels a lot?
A. Overall, the Nexus 7 LTE is a good place to start. It's small, light, relatively inexpensive, but packs a punch. Plus, it runs the latest version of Android, which is very good. For Apple lovers, the iPad Mini with Retina is your best option. It's more portable than the iPad Air, but has the same power.

I just read an article in Psychology Today called Women's Intuition: Myth or Reality? The author, a man by the way, boiled intuition down to a woman's enhanced ability to read nonverbal communication clues, such as subtle facial expressions. Yes, I believe we are bioligically programmed to better read nonverbal communication clues, but sadly, this is an extremely narrow definition of what intuition is.
In my article, The Origin of Intuition, I explain that intuition means looking in. Picking up on nonverbal communication is looking out. We do, indeed, incorporate body language into our intuitive assessment of a situation, but we do so much more.
Holy crumpets! What if there are no people to read? Does this mean we are not experiencing intuition?
For example, the author's definition does not explain my favourite personal example of walking out the door knowing that my husband-at-the-time and I should not drive to the cottage. In fact, at the exact same time as me, he also received that knowing. Half way there we were in an accident. Since the domino effect of collisions started five cars ahead of us, there was no way it was self-fullfilling prophesy.
Nor does his definition explain a female co-worker flying into my office and practically shouting "apply for this job now". Having learned not to question another woman's intuition, I checked and I had exactly five minutes left to apply for the job. I did, and I got the job.
It does not explain using tools like meditation and Tarot to tap into the quiet inner voice that has the answer to a challenge your ego has not been able to solve. In fact, your ego has been steering you in the entirely wrong directon.
The author concludes with "So, is women's intuition myth or reality? Mostly reality, and is based on gender differences in nonverbal communication skills."
What really saddens me about the article is that men totally get dumped from the intuition equation. If intuition is solely being able to read nonverbal communication clues, and men are not good at doing that, that leaves them as total non intuitive dolts. Which I do not believe for one second.
The challenge is the author was drawing his conclusions based on logic and research. Intuition is not logical and it is not empirical. It simply is, and both genders have it.
And not a single person needs to be in the room with you for intuition to happen.

If you want to waste some money order a chicken salad. Thought it was common sense not to put piping hot chicken on lettuce and seal it up! They wadded up my French fry order in a ball of tin foil, literally an ball. No flavor. No value. No consideration for their customers.

I have eaten before at Jackson Hole and enjoyed my food. We ordered food for delivery tonight. The delivery service was excellent. The food was a big disappointment! The burger was flavorless and not fresh tasting. The cheese on the burger was a bland thick liquid. The sweet potatoes were soggy and stale. The curly fries were crispy but tasted like they were cooked in old oil. The fried chicken was ok but nothing special. The rice pudding was drowning in cinnamon and dry, not creamy. I hope it was just a bad night for this upper east side burger landmark. I can only wonder if the second avenue subway construction is causing this restaurant to lose business and thus have less than fresh food.

I'm not a fan of Jackson Hole burgers, I prefer charcoal-broiled. But, recently tried the chicken sandwich. The chicken was nicely marinated and grilled; moist and flavorful enough to eat without sauce. On garlic bread with cole slaw and fries it's an OK dinner when in the mood for some low-cost diner food. Service on 2 recent visits was good.

Superb value, very good product. some of their menu items can be a little bland or greasy, but i've never had an objectively bad meal from here. as some of the previous posters mentioned, you'll either love or hate the decor so order in if you don't like chintzy faux-50s diner ambiance. recommended dishes: east sider burger (not for the fainthearted)! chili veggie burrito/quesadillas/fajitas west coast vegetarian sandwich

This is the best diner I've been to. Their homemade sauces are to die for especially the ranch! Their guacamole is the best I've had by far and I've had many diff kinds from authentic Mexican restaurants.

Listen, you want a huge freakin burger, that comes to you the way you want it, made from quality meat that is juicy and delicious? Look no further. This Jackson Hole has the old-fashioned 50's diner feel going and it's okay, although I find that type of thing kind of cheesy and it makes me feel as though I'll get lousy food because they kind of depend on the atmosphere to do the work. But they serve a serious belly-bomber burger, with thick cut fries and lots of fresh toppings. If you walk out of the place still hungry, you have a serious problem. You can't go wrong! Order a cream soda and top it off right.

They do serve a good burger, but if all you can do is grill a piece of meat, then count me out. I was in the mood for wings and I didn't argue with my roommate who wanted to order takeout from Jackson Hole, because she was craving their burgers. I'm not super picky when it comes to wings, but my skepticism began when I noticed Seamless Web did not give any choices for the hotness of the wings. They were labeled Buffalo Wings and I figured I'd be fine since I love both hot and mild wings. The "wings" arrived on a leaf of lettuce with blue cheese, carrot and celery sticks. However, these "wings" were the tiniest wings I have ever seen. Did these even come from a chicken? I wouldn't be surprised if I was told they were pigeon wings. That's how puny they were. Upon further inspection I noticed there was also no Buffalo sauce on the wings or included in the order. When I called to remedy the situation, I was told this is how they make their wings. Isn't the essence of Buffalo wings the sauce? Otherwise it's just fried chicken wings if you ask me. (Yes the menu does say BUFFALO wings.) I was pretty upset I paid $9.20 for teeny tiny pieces of fried chicken that completely lacked seasoning. I even offered to walk over and return the wings, because if I had been in the restaurant I would have sent them back. Instead all I could manage was to get them to deliver some hot sauce. By the time that came, my wings were cold. To be honest they were not very warm when they arrived. There are plenty of bars/burger joints in the neighborhood, so I won't be ordering from this one trick pony again.

The Erie BayHawks were part of the top two plays of the D-League Top 5 Plays of the Week for Dec. 17-24.
No. 2. Mychel Thompson's reverse lay up at Springfield. The BayHawks won 127-119.
No. 1. Boston Celtics rookie 7-footer Fab Melo blocked a D-League single-game record 14 shots for the Maine Red Claws against BayHawks. Erie won the game, 85-78.
Me personally, the best play of them all is No. 3: JaJuan Johnson, who used to play for the Boston Celtics, served up a facial on Melo.
