Syracuse women's basketball handled a tumultuous offseason that saw massive changes within the program. After 12 players transferred out, an investigation from The Athletic accused longtime head coach Quentin Hillsman of inappropriate behavior. That led to a separate investigation by the university and, ultimately, Hillsman's resignation. Longtime assistant Vonn Read was promoted to acting head coach for the 2021-22 season. The year did not start out well for the Orange, who brought in several transfers to fill out the roster. Syracuse started just 2-4 after losing all three of its games in the Battle 4 Atlantis. Since then, however, there has been a resurgence. The Orange has won five straight, including an upset over then #18 Ohio State and a 40 point blowout of conference foe Clemson. Syracuse is led by Chrislyn Carr and Teisha Hyman. Carr averages 15.4 points per game. Hyman averages 14.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game. 

UMBC is 1-8 on the season, with its lone win coming in the season opener. The Retrievers enter Saturday's game on an eight game losing streak. UMBC is led by Janee'a Summers, a fifth year senior who averages over 14 points per game to lead the team. She is also second on the team with 5.4 rebounds per game. UMBC is shooting 34.7% from three point range as a team.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
