We are opening our 2019-20 basketball previews with the Eastern Michigan women’s basketball squad. Last season, the Eagles finished 14-17 on the season, and 6-12 in the MAC. The record does no show just how much an improvement Eastern Michigan has made since the arrival of Coach Castro. There is a lot of reason for optimism in Ypsilanti for the 2019-20 season.
Not only does most of the team return, but they have the right balance to really make a mark on the national stage. One thing I have noticed as the MAC has ascended to the heights of top Mid-Major, they can struggle against the power schools down on the block.
