Wyoming Cowgirls to become a defensive team

The curtain closed on the Wyoming women’s basketball team last season with a lop-sided loss to San Diego State in the Mountain West tournament.

“We have to get better defensively,” Legerski said Thursday at UW’s Media Day. “That’s something we’ve been very aware of and we decided that that has to be a point of emphasis greater than what we did offensively. We’ve spent more time with it, the team’s responded very well, we’ve become very aggressive and we’re happy about that.”

Still in the infancy of the season and with a month left before the season opener, the Cowgirls have already dedicated entire practices to defensive drills.
