Purdue won their second straight home game early in the season, taking down the Lamar Cardinals out of Southwest Texas. Not exactly a national powerhouse, they are a winning program with one bonafide star and a solid winning record. While it would be good to play a tougher non-conference schedule, at least with the schedule we have, it is allowing our young team to get some valuable experience as they get used to playing together as a unit. Replacing graduating seniors Ashley Morrissette and Bridget Perry was not going to be easy, the team leaders and two leading scorers from a year ago.
