It's been attempted. No luck.
God gave us Roger Sprague and then took him away just as quickly.
Its hard to believe Bolte is only a freshman that was a very experienced 3 she took a freshman wouldn't normally shoot that they are going to be good for awhile
Don't give up. There's a saying, "If you hang a Glendower banner, he will come."
Right, we have tried...valiantly.
We put posts up on various message boards. Sent him e-mails. Hung our gendower banners.
We event rolled up tin foil, attached it to our ears and put pancakes on our heads it in hopes of communicating with him again.
So fair, no luck.
But like the mighty Cyclones, we will not give up. We will push on, like a fire that never goes out. A statue that never waivers. A tuff rain that just doesn't quit.
We will find you, ye Roger Sprague. Someday...we will find you...

Not one to let the wind out, but to beat a team as good as KState with your top two post players out for the season takes more than a little luck. KState's leading scorer blows out her knee early in the game. Lacey misses a three that would have won in regulation, and the rebound falls into Anderson's hands for a layup to tie. KState had outrebounded ISU by 10 at that point. And KState's outstanding PG misses a layup that she would make 95% of the time. Game Over! On the other hand, The KState player who doesn't play a lot, and I think has only made 2 3s all year makes 2 in the final 5 minutes and something like 6-8 FT in overtime, but misses the one that would have given them a 3 point lead with 11 seconds left. The magic of Hilton south continues!
If anybody listens to 810 WHB in KC, if you have ever heard the caller named "Sung", I think he is Tuff Tiger/Roger Sprague.
If you're referring to the last-second shot that didn't go in, that was far from being a layup. She let that from the free-throw line while at a full sprint.

I just saw end of the game on ESPNnews again. They have it as part of their highlights looping every half hour. On the last shot, she took off from behing the free-throw line... momentum carried her into the lane and it was a desparation shot. Not even close to a lay-up.
