LOOKING BACK AT THE YEAR THAT WAS
The Southern Connecticut State University women's basketball team concluded its 2010-11 season with 11 wins. The Owls just missed a Northeast-10 Tournament berth.
GOOD THINGS HAPPEN WHEN YOU PLAY DEFENSE
The equation was pretty straightforward for the Owls this year - strong defensive efforts translated into victories in 2010-11. Southern Connecticut allowed just 49.5 points per game in its 11 wins and merited 68.5 points per game in its 15 losses. The Owls didn't allow more than 60 points in any win, but allowed more than that figure in 13 of their 16 losses.
COMMUNITY SERVICE CUP WINNERS
The team won the Tim Greer Insurance Agency Inc. Community Service Cup for their efforts during the 2010-11 academic year.
COMMUNITY RECOGNITION
The 2010-11 squad was recognized by the Connecticut Department of Higher Education for their outstanding community service efforts. Head coach Meghan Brown and captain Alex Fiola attended an event in Hartford to receive formal recognition for their efforts in April.
CLEANING THE GLASS
The Owls ranked first in the league in 2010-11 in offensive rebounds/game (15.62) and second in the Northeast-10 Conference in rebounding offense (40.3 per game).
