  • Jornada 16 Día 19/ 12/ 2020
    JORNADA 16 DÍA 19/ 12/ 2020 CASADEMONT ZARAGOZA RECIBE A LA SEU, EL REENCUENTRO (IV) Dos meses y medio después de disputar la primera jornada, Casademont Zaragoza arranca la segunda vuelta de la competición ante Cadí La Seu en el pabellón Príncipe Felipe, en el mejor momento de la temporada. El equipo de Carlos Iglesias llega a esta jornada número 16 tras superar a Spar Gran Canaria como visitante (78-82) y competir ante Lointek Gernika como local (76-87). Dos encuentros que, sumados a la nueva firma de Anna Cruz, dejan un buen sabor de boca para afrontar la segunda mitad de la campaña. Además, en esta jornada 16, se enfrentarán por cuarta vez este año a Cadí La Seu, enfrentamientos que han dejado un balance de 1 victoria (71-90) y 2 derrotas (69-71 y 60-57) para el cuadro zaragozano. El conjunto de Bernat Canut viaja a Zaragoza después de una semana algo amarga. A pesar de sumar su tercera victoria consecutiva (Al-Qázeres, Gran Canaria y Promete), tan solo 3 puntos de diferencia en el basketaverage les dejaron fuera de la Copa de la Reina 2021. Una situación que les sitúa en la novena plaza de la clasificación con 7 victorias y 8 derrotas, con una distancia de 2 victorias frente a Casademont Zaragoza (5-10). Respecto a los choques previos, cinco cambios significativos han tenido lugar en la plantilla catalana: las salidas de Maria Jespersen y Danni Williams, los fichajes de Laure Resimont y Gabbi Ortiz, y el regreso de Yurena Díaz a las pistas.

  • Duke University's Alana Bears Named WBCA/NCAA Division I Player of the Month
    Duke University's Alana Bears Named WBCA/NCAA Division I Player of the Month ATLANTA, Ga. (January 13, 2004) -- Duke University senior guard Alana Beard has been named the first Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) NCAA Division I Player of the Month for December, WBCA CEO, Beth Bass announced today. The WBCA reintroduces its player of the month program after several years of hiatus. The WBCA will announce a player of the month throughout the college women's basketball season for the months of December, January, February, and March. Beard, a native of Shreveport, Louisiana, averaged 18.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 4.0 steals and 1.2 blocked shots, and opened conference play and the month of December with a win against Wake Forest (Dec. 5). December also marked a homecoming for Beard, who returned to her native town to take on Northwestern State on December 20. The trip home proved to be a pleasant one as the Blue Devils were victorious over the Lady Demons 105-53, with a healthy contribution from Beard, who had 19 points and six rebounds. Beard also tied her career high seven steals with a 90-59 win over Hampton on December 28. To close out the month and 2003, Beard led the Blue Devils past Loyola Marymount 81-53 with a 19-point performance. Duke is currently on a 13-game winning streak, achieving their 500th win in the program's 29 seasons with their most recent victory over the University of North Carolina 79-57 on January 11 and a huge win over the reigning NCAA Division I Women's Basketball National Champions, University of Connecticut on January 3.
