Missouri State Lady Bears coach Beth Cunningham didn't know what to think heading into Saturday afternoon's game against UT Martin.
For the first time in a month, the Lady Bears were playing in front of the Great Southern Bank Arena faithful but she was unsure who would be available for the game or how others might perform.
Before the game, at least three players had missed time while dealing with flu-like symptoms including the team's starting point guard and a key player in the post. Fortunately for Cunningham, her team made it to the arena.
"We were fortunate and I was thrilled to have all 11 of them available and in uniform today," Cunningham said.
