Update: Here's a preview from the Purdue Exponent, focusing on the two Michigan players on Purdue's roster:It's make or break time for the Michigan women's basketball team.
Win the next four and there is a good chance the Wolverines will earn a spot in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2001.
Lose the next four and it's the NIT - or maybe no tournament at all.
"Everything that we've accomplished so far goes right down the drain if we don't do well in the last four games," Michigan coach Kevin Borseth said. "That's the good news - we're motivated to do that. The bad news is the teams we play are very good. It's not going to be easy."
The Wolverines (7-7 Big Ten, 14-10 overall) play four tough games in the next 11 days against Purdue, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Michigan is 1-2 against those teams this season.
Two former Michigan high school women's basketball stars will return to the state where they once played at 7 tonight.
When the Boilers (14-12, 10-5 Big Ten) face the Michigan Wolverines (14-10, 7-7), junior forward Ki-Ki Freeman and freshman forward Keshia Mosley have an extra incentive to win.
Both were once finalists for Michigan Miss Basketball, but the two have different feelings about the return home.
