I didn't watch the game until the last 30 seconds. I saw that we were down 21-12 after one quarter, and I couldn't check the score again until the end, so I was very happy that we held UW to 68 points and that we rallied to win the game.
Amazing turnaround it seems at halftime, limiting UW to 23 points in the second half. It seemed like, intentional or not, defensively, that it was the opposite strategy of when we played Griner and Baylor, where we focused on Griner and Sims and dared everyone else to score. From the box score here, it seemed like Plum went off, but we shut the rest of the Huskies down including Osahor and Romeo, which is a difficult task to do.
Sounds like we were clutch offensively as well and when our usual go-to players were covered or struggled, other people stepped up, which is great to see.
As 81 points out, we have the SoCal schools next and we end the season having to go to the Oregon schools while UW's toughest remaining games are at the L.A. schools and home to ASU.
