After a disappointing 2010-11 season, the WolfPack women’s basketball team came out with a strong first half of play this season. The WolfPack stand 10-6 over- all and only one loss in conference play, which was Jan. 21 against Rock Valley.
One area the team may need to improve in is in shooting the ball. Despite outscoring their opponents total points, they have a lower shooting percentage than their opponents. Going into Jan. 21, the team trailed opponents in field goals 36.3 to 38.3.
Despite success early on this season, the annual WolfPack trip to Arizona didn’t end up favorably for the women. The team lost all three games, losing to Glendale Community College, Phoenix College and Mesa Community College.
