The season is over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It seemed at the beginning of the year the season wouldnt come fast enough. During the season it seemed it was going by slow. Now we look back and say where did it all go!!!!! It was a great year this year for the women and men hillcats. we didnt finish the season how we would have wanted but at the end of the day we cant complain. we finished #10 in the country, 22-7, 15-7 in conference so we are very grateful. we have a #2 seed in the confernece tourney and guaranteed a spot in the national tourney so god is truly good no matter how you look at it. coach raised the bar from last years team and i truly believe that we surpassed it and now the bar is raised even higher for nextyears team!

awesome win
MACU came into the expo on saturday night ready to play. The Hillcats came into the expo ready to beat the life out of macu and leave no doubt who the best team is, and thats just what we did! it started off with the lady hillcats defeating macu by almost 30pts. they played an outstanding game and played together very well. If they keep this up they will go into the conference tourney playing very well!
From the tip of the game we gained control and maintained control. a really good team finishes off his opponent when his opponent is down, leave no room for error, and gives it their all for the entire 40mins. Thats just what we did saturday night. we imposed our will rather they liked it or not. Shorter had a good first half scoring 23 points and was literally unstoppable in the first half. in the second half all of that came to an end holding him to only 4 pts the entire half. Now MACU is a good team. they just beat john brown by 30pts that thursday and just came from texas where they swept and beat both lubbock and wayland. so they was feeling pretty good until they came rogers.
I really liked our team chemistry and how we played with one another, didnt force a lot of plays how we tend to do some times, and we had fun doing it. when you enjoy what you're doing it makes doing it so much easier and exciting. these are the kind of things that we need to grow on entering the conference tourney and the national tourney.

good game! fell short!
We came out with intensity, fire, and a sense of urgency against oklahoma city. We played a very tough and intense game which we should have one but unfortunately we didnt. it all came down to the last few seconds of the game and we basically shot ourselves in the foot. OKC got a foul and the basket counted and he made the free throw. But we still have a shot to at least tie the game with a 2 point basket and kendrell drove the lave and the ball rolled off the rim. Some say a foul should have been called but the ref's saw something different and game over. No one person is to blame for the loss. we all could have done some things different to change the outcome of the game but sadly we can't go back in time to play it again. im proud of our teams effort and we will build off of our hard work and work harder.

Tough lost!!!!!
WE lost ourselves the game! we started the game strong and as the game progressed we began to get relaxed and thats what hurt us the most. well that and the fact that richey scored a game high 35 points and 100% from the free throw line against us. containing richey was a key factor in the game and was something we didnt do a good enough job of. we learned a valuable lesson that game and the was never under estimate anybody because we are all basketball players and at the end of the day anybody can beat any given team.
it was a tough lost on monday evening for the hillcats! we started the game on a good note but ended it horribly! most of all it was a mental game then a physical one and meantally we broke down in several fifferent areas. hats off to st. gregory for coming out ready to play. it was a game we should have one but at the end of the day we learned a very important lesson. most of all it has brought us closer together as a team and we will continue to improve and get better. the worse thing a team can do is began to point fingers and hold your head down but instead we acknowledged the problem and will fix. we are holding our heads up high and walking proud because at the end of the day we are still one of the best teams in the country and still in 2nd place in the conference.

tough win
the lady hillcats played a great game today defeating Oklahoma christian. good job ladies keep playing hard and tough. sierra played a very good all around game. she had some big steals and she hit some big shots and she finished with 22 on the night.
the men hillcats on the other hand had a little more to deal with. OCU came out playing pretty good and reinke was playing hard in the paint. we were able to score on the offensive end but we had trouble containing the boards in the first half and went into halftime with only a 3 point lead. second half we came out playing and just couldnt maintain the lead. we couldnt keep the lead. down the stretch we got some key stops and some key buckets. a big 3 by alex ewings from the wing and somw big offensive rebounds. final seconds of the game mo rutherford got a big offensive rebound and larry cox hit a 3 pointer from top of the key with 5.6 seconds left in the game. which was the game winner. good job both the hillcat women and men!
the hillcat men have another game onmonday evening against st. gregory. we would like to thank all of the hillcat fans for coming out and supporting your hillcats. we love you and look forward to seeing you monday evening.

i am really looking forward to our last eight games of the season because we are preparing and positioning ourselves for the conference tourney and the national tourney! our team has really picked it up on the defensive side of the ball and im really proud and excited to see our team come together in such a way! we have a lot of un-selfish players, all who are willing to play hard all the time whether or not things are going our way and that says a lot about our team. We won some really big games which will play a big part at the end of the season. I love this team and to be a part of it is a blessing from GOD! We have an away game this thursday at northwestern and then we have two home games that saturday and that monday just the men have a home game. I look forward to seeing everyone of you there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillcats on a Role
Two great games played by the RSU men Hillcats! We played a great team against USAO on Thursday night which had a lot of talent but we came out fired up and ready to go. We started off a little slow but at the win we came out victorious and that's all that matters! The game was hard fought and we showed a load of character by staying with the game plan and executing it!
The game against SNU on Saturday evening may have been one of our better defensive games. We came out on fire on the defensive end of the floor only allowing 26 points in the first half, which in my opinion is very good. We slacked off in the 2nd half allowing SNU to put themselves in a position to tie the game but we kept our heads and continued to play hard and got the win! Good job fellas.
We like to thank all of our Hillcat fans who support and love us. We greatly appreciate it and we love you!
