JACKSON, Tenn. -- Azusa Pacific women’s basketball assistant coach Megan Fate went "on location" to get community reaction to Azusa Pacific's 65-55 first-round win over Southern Nazarene in the 2009 NAIA Division I Women’s Basketball National Championship tournament.
In Thursday night's episode, Fate interviewed a Jackson, Tenn. resident who is one of the many volunteers who help run the tournament, and she also reviewed Thursday night's game with sophomore guards Michelle Byrd and C.J. Hill, as well.
The Cougars are back in action in the final time slot of Friday's second round, wrapping up 24 games of tournament action in a time frame of about 64 hours. Second-round action began this morning at Jackson’s Oman Arena, beginning with a 9:00 a.m. contest, the first of 8 Friday games, including 4 that feature Golden State Athletic Conference representatives.
