One Down...Two To Go

"One down...two to go."

That was the title of Jeff Miller's latest article about the Milwaukee women's basketball team after the Panthers collected yet another huge win on Saturday, taking down Wright State, 68-57, in a battle for second place in the Horizon League.

UWM now holds sole possession of second place with just two games left in the regular season.

As Miller notes, if Milwaukee can secure the No. 2 seed, they get not only a double bye in the Horizon League Tournament, but also an automatic bid into the WNIT.

Add's Miller, "Right now, Rechlicz’s team is hitting on all cylinders, and seem to be peaking at the right time. The win Saturday extended their overall record to 17-10, and  11-5 in the Conference, and “rocking” a 4 game winning streak."

Panthers Primed For Saturday's Big Game

After last night's 78-71 win over Northern Kentucky, the Milwaukee women's basketball team continued their push toward the Horizon League Tournament.

UWM increased its chances for earning the No. 2 seed in the tournament with that win, something not lost on producer/host and sports correspondent for The Big 920 - WOKY/Newstalk 1130 - WISN in Milwaukee.

Write's Miller, "This Saturday afternoon at the Klotsche Center on the UWM campus the Women’s basketball team will be playing in their program’s biggest game in a decade."

The game Miller is referring to is the matchup between Milwaukee and Wright State - the two teams currently tied for second place in the league standings with 10-5 conference records.

Women's Basketball Garnering More Media Attention

Jeff Miller
The Milwaukee women's basketball team has drawn quite a bit of interest this season, and for good reason.

The latest comes from the pen of Jeff Miller - producer, host and sports correspondent at The Big 920 - WOKY/Newstalk 1130 - WISN in Milwaukee.

Miller - who produces some of the Panther radio broadcasts - notes there are a variety of reasons this could prove to be quite the special season for the Panthers.

He writes: "Head Coach Kyle Rechlicz now fully ensconced in her fourth year, is on the verge of taking the Women’s program to a place they haven’t been  in a decade…to a post season tournament (other than the Horizon League)."
