Women's Coverage, anyone?

We've given the men a lot of love tonight for their win over Manhattan, but how about a little coverage of the women's team? Here's a rundown of our post-game work today on the Fairfield/Canisius game:

• Chris Simmons looks back at the heartbreaking 62-55 loss to Canisius in the MAAC Tournament semifinals. His story is chock-ful of quotes from head coach Joe Frager and Baendu Lowenthal.
• My column, albeit a short one, looks back at the Stags' recent postseason setbacks, the fantastic work of this season's senior class, and peeks ahead to '09.

Tom and I are finishing up some wall-to-wall stories and features for tomorrow's showdown with Siena. That should be up in about an hour.

In other news, the men's basketball team huddled at 9pm this evening at the Crowne-Plaza. No word on whether it was a practice, a walk-through, or a team meeting. This much is sure: they're as excited as I've ever seen them for tomorrow's game. More updates as they come.
