Women Win Conference Opener Against Air Force

Image

PROVO -- Behind the 13 point effort of forward Shawnee Slade and center Dani Wright, BYU (10-4, 1-0) beat Air Force (4-9, 0-2) 59-46. BYU trailed only twice and never by more than three, while the Cougars lead by as much as 15 in their win over the Falcons. Slade lead the team with a game high four steals, and Wright had two blocks.

"It was a really ugly game, but we played a really good defensive game especially in the second half," BYU women's basketball head coach Jeff Judkins said. "We did a good job of confusing them in the second half."

Melinda Johnsen started the game with a driving layup to put the Cougars up 2-0 with 16:50 to go in the first half. The Falcons came right back and took a 4-2 lead over the Cougars. Slade had the answer with a jumper and then a three pointer at the 13:56 mark to put the Cougars up 7-6. Slade hit another jumper to give BYU a 9-6 lead at the 12:44 mark. Air Force answered with a layup of its own, but Slade continued her streak with another jumper giving the Cougars an 11-8 lead. Air Force pulled to within one, but senior guard Jennie Keele made a three pointer to push the lead back to four with 10:36 left in the half. Dani Wright added to the cause with three layups in one minute. Wright also helped with her defense by blocking a shot at the 7:11 mark to solidify the Cougars lead 20-14.

Air Force forward, Alecia Steele gave the Falcons a boost with her hustle and scoring, she cut the lead down to three with a basket and free throw with seven minutes left in the half. Steele scored again before Lauren Riley got her first basket to put BYU back up by three, 22-19. Riley hit a free throw and a layup to push BYU to a three-point lead with just over a minute left in the half. The Cougars finished the half 26-23, due in part to a block by Cassie King with 54 seconds left.

The Falcons shot 37 percent from the field in the first half only to shoot 35 percent from the field in the second half. The Cougars shot 52 percent from the field in the first half and 38 percent from the field in the second half. BYU led Air Force in points in the paint, bench points and second chance points.

In the second half, Steele came out shooting and gave the Falcons their first lead of the game since the early minutes at 29-26. BYU came back and answered with baskets by Wright, then Riley, to tie up the game at 30 a piece with 16:18 left in the game. Keele lifted the Cougars to a four-point lead with a free throw and three pointer with just under 15 minutes to go in the contest, 34-30. Less than a minute later, Slade made a basket to put BYU up 36-30.

"Shawnee (Slade) played well tonight and it was good to see Mallary (Gillespie) take some shots again," Judkins said.

After a four-minute drought, Falcon forward Pamela Findlay made a pair of free throws. Melinda Johnsen answered immediately with a three pointer to make it 39-32 BYU with just under 13 minutes left. Air Force battled back for three more points before Keele made a free throw to put the Cougars up 43-37 with 8:48 remaining.

Johnsen had two assists back to back. She set up King for a layup and then Gillespie for a three pointer with just over three minutes left in the game. The Cougars continued to roll as Slade hit another layin, Gillespie hit a free throw and Johnsen hit a free throw, putting BYU up 59-44 with less than two minutes left. Air Force put in another basket to finish the game at 59-46 Cougars.

BYU had three players in double digits (Slade 13, Wright 13 and Keele 10). Keele not only contributed with points but she dished out a game-high five assists, had two steals and one block. Gillespie had seven points and three assists. Alecia Steele was the game-high scorer with 16 points for the Falcons. She also had the most rebounds with 14.

BYU women's basketball continues on the road with a game at New Mexico, Wednesday, January 10. Then they return home to host Wyoming a 2:00 p.m. in the Marriott Center, Saturday, January 13.

2006 MWC Coach of the Year Jeff Judkins begins his sixth year as head coach of the women's basketball program. Prior to heading up the women's program, he served one year (1999-2000) as Director of Basketball Operations for the BYU men's team. In 2000 he became an assistant coach on the women's team.

Last season under Judkins, the Cougars compiled their best finish in school history with a 26-6 record, clinched their first MWC regular season title since 1992 and received a no. 7 seed in the NCAA tournament, the highest seed for any BYU program.

For the first time since the 2002-03 season, the team and its 13-1 record to start the year broke into the women's basketball collegiate polls, ranked No. 23 by the AP Poll and the USA Today/Espn/WBCA Coaches Poll. They would rank as high as 18 and 16 in the two respective polls, finishing the year at No. 20. Last season Judkins picked up his 100th win, a 69-67 victory over CSU on Mar. 2, the same time the team clinched the league's regular season title.

Under Judkins tutelage, the women's basketball program has had consistent success with four postseason appearances including three NCAA Championships, guiding the team to its first ever Sweet Sixteen finish in 2002. In 2005, the 19-11 team played in the first round of the WNIT.

Judkins has also coached two All-Americans in Erin Thorn and Ambrosia Anderson. Both have gone on to play in the WNBA for the New York Liberty. Thorn has been with the team for the past four years while Anderson just completed her first year playing professionally.

The longtime University of Utah coach and player came to Provo with a proven record of success dating back to his high school days at Highland HS in Salt Lake City. An all-state selection in basketball, football and baseball, Judkins went on to play for the University of Utah from 1974-78.

While playing at Utah, Judkins helped lead the Utes to one conference championship and two berths in the NCAA tournament. He was a second-team academic All-American and three-time District VII academic selection. He also earned three first team All-WAC honors and was a member of the 1977 United States World Games team that captured the gold medal.

Judkins also played five years in the National Basketball Association for the Boston Celtics, Portland Trailblazers, Detroit Pistons and Utah Jazz. He was a second-round pick of the Celtics in 1978, the same year the Celtics selected Larry Bird with the sixth pick overall.

After his NBA career, he returned to Utah in 1989 and was an instrumental part of that program's success during his 10 years, recruiting such players as Keith Van Horn, Andre Miller, Mike Doleac, Hanno Mottola, Alex Jensen, Trent Whiting, Garner Meads, Jeff Johnsen and Britton Johnsen.

Judkins, graduated from the University of Utah in 1978 with a degree in health and physical education. He and his wife Mary Kaye are the parents of five children: Jessica (26), (married to Paul), Jordan (24), Jenna (22), Jaime, who plays on the basketball team, (19), and Jaxson (16). Jenna plays on the volleyball team at BYU.

Hobbies: Waterskiing, horseback riding, hunting, golf, softball, and watching ESPN.
