22 straight wins. Undefeated in WAC play. The most balanced lineup in arguably the Division I era.

And a chance to win at least a share of that elusive WAC regular season title with a win on Saturday in Riverside.

Molly Miller is going to win WAC Coach of the Year honors, and perhaps garner some national honors, as well. The Lopes are rolling, and Miller is at the head of a veteran group of players led by Tiarra Brown and Trinity San Antonio.

Derryl spoke with Molly Miller on this episode of the Straight Outta WAC podcast about the Lopes, the success, and much more.

Macie Warren was having a big year in 2023-24. Warren played in 23 games, averaged just over 14 points per contest, and was a significant piece of the Trailblazers’ game plan.

Then, as has happened before, Macie Warren sustained a season-ending ACL injury on Feb. 8, 2024, in the Trailblazers 87-77 win against rival Southern Utah.

Warren missed the season's final nine games, including the WAC Tournament loss to UT Arlington.

But, even though she is sidelined during her recovery in 2024-25, Warren continues to make an impact for the Trailblazers, just as a broadcaster.

In this episode of the Straight Outta WAC podcast, Warren talks about being behind the headset, the recovery, and much more.

Danja Stafford Collins wanted to come back to Utah, to play with friends and be closer to family. And, since joining Utah Valley, Stafford Collins has been really, really good, including a game-winning shot in double overtime on the road at ACU on Saturday.

The GCU women’s basketball team has swept the in-state opponents, are currently on an 11-game win streak, and finally have the balance they have been lacking over the last three seasons.

Is 2024-25 finally the season to get over the hump and win the WAC? Grad student Laura Erikstrup is a big part of the success and she jumps on the podcast to discuss the Lopes.
