October 27, 2016 | Women's Basketball
CLEVELAND, Ohio - For the fourth straight season, the Ball State women's basketball team has been picked second in the Mid-American Conference West Division Preseason Poll.
Sallee enters his fifth year at the helm of the Cardinals, guiding Ball State to a 22-10 ledger in 2015-16. Last year marked only the fifth time in program history Ball State won at least 20 games, helping make Sallee the only head coach in program history with four consecutive winning seasons — 17-16 (2012-13), 18-17 (2013-14), 17-12 (2014-15) and 22-10 (2015-16).
The 2015-16 season saw Ball State clinch its third trip to Cleveland in four years for the MAC Tournament. The Cardinals also earned their fourth-straight berth in the postseason Women's National Invitation Tournament where Ball State advanced to the second round for the first time since 2012-13, pulling off a 77-72 upset at Big Ten foe Iowa.
The Cardinals open their season at home against Arkansas Pine Bluff on Nov. 11, which will be a Kid's Day event beginning at 11 a.m. in Worthen Arena. Ball State opens conference action at Toledo, Dec. 31, in a game scheduled to tipoff at Noon.
