Freshman honored for record setting performance

Nov. 27, 2007

BEAUMONT - After her record setting performance against Wiley College on Saturday, Lamar University women's basketball player Tamara Abalde was named the Southland Conference Player of the Week.

Abalde, a 6-2 guard from Vigo, Spain, tied the Lady Cardinals single game scoring record of 44 points, knocking down 78 percent of her shots (14-18) from the field and sinking all 13 of her free throws in Lamar's 71-47 win over Wiley. She tied the record set by Lara Webb who poured in 44 points against TCU on March 3, 1996. She also had eight rebounds, two steals and a block in the game.

Abalde leads Lamar and the SLC in scoring this season, averaging 19.5 points per game, while grabbing 7.3 rebounds per game, which ranks second on the team. She has been LU's leading threat from behind the three point arc this season, knocking down 11 threes at a .379 percentage.

Abalde and the Lady Cardinals take on IUPUI tonight at 7 p.m. at the Montagne Center. After tonight's game the Lamar will return to action on Saturday afternoon when they take on the Chicago State Cougars at 2 p.m. in Chicago, Ill.

The wife and I are going to watch the ladies tonight. Yes, she and all the ladies are a treat to watch. The team they are playing has a 6-5 C. I hope the guards shoot well because the paint will be hard to get into with someone that big.

Haha that 6-5 girl was funny. She scored on some open layups, but she didn't have much of a shot if she wasn't using the backboard. She's just a BIG body in the middle. Probably over 250.

After watching the game I totally agree with you mffl. She was just a HUGE woman who Brittney Williams dominated. Good game for the ladies and I'm so happy they won. They are improving everytime I was them play. This could be a pretty good team come Feb/March.

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.

      I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.

      But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling.
