Spoke with Texas State women's basketball head coach Suzanne Fox on Friday morning about the upcoming Southland Conference schedule. The Bobcats open SLC play with a 4 p.m. game against Texas-Arlington on Saturday.
Texas State is 6-6 overall and 0-5 away from Strahan Coliseum.
On her feelings about the team this year compared to last year: "You can win basketball games a lot of different ways and I think this team is no different. Last year, we shot more than 600 3-pointers. This year, we're going to have a lot of different ways to score. Our perimeter kids score, but it's going to be a different type. This will be very comparable to two years ago. We may not score as much as last year, but we're very focused on the defensive end."
On what UTA brings to the table: "They are a very balanced team. Candice Champion is playing just as good, if not better, than many other people in the league right now. UTA is a very tough place to win on the road. I have to look back at our schedule, but I don't think we've won a game on the road there in five years."
On if she feels the team is prepared about the same as last season: "You prepare the kids to get ready for 16 games in two months. It's a long haul. The teams that get ready the best and most are usually the teams that have success."
