Great recap VG. I was screaming to go zone as well. Toni definitely gets the game ball. We need more penetration and high/low to find creases in the zone. Her threes were brobdingnagian, especially the one that hung on the rim. I was also losing a lung about the fouls on boards and all the grabbing and slapping. Nikki learned to coach that at TN too, she knows the harassing play really disrupts our flow.
Agree with your pts about Pohlen, but she hits some big shots when needed. Chiney made some frosh mistakes on fouls and D, but I think she\'ll learn from it. Nneka was quoted it felt like there were 2 players on her all the time, so it hurt big time to have Chiney on the bench for 11 min. as Nneka didn\'t have any help.
Liked how we settled down in the 2nd half, but we also stepped up our D, which helped our O. Also, 13-15 FTs was key to the win too.
If 1 seeds (and locations) Â go accordingly, we will play Baylor in semis in Indy. UConn and TN would be in the other bracket, but I actually think Duke or ND will knock off the Voles.
I agree we\'ll get Depaul in Spokane and I say bring it on baby. They do not play nearly as well away from their home court and we\'ll have Kayla.
Go Card!
