New York, N.Y. - The combination of 13 of 14 players back from a team that made an inspired run to the BIG EAST Tournament Final as well as the return of the 2014 BIG EAST Player of the Year, Marissa Janning, gave the Creighton women's basketball team confidence entering the 2016-17 season. The BIG EAST women's head coaches have added something else, a target, as the Bluejays were picked to win the BIG EAST as the confernce media day on Tuesday, Oct. 11.
"It's an honor to have the hard work this team has put in recognized by our peers," said head coach Jim Flanery.
