I am going to be out all day today, then going to see Lou play in the championship game.
The link I listed for the Fox Sports West Prep Zone(see above post) is supposed to show all of the games today.
Since Mater Dei's game is the last of 6 sometimes the games get backed up.
I hope someone can post they can see the game on line so I dont have to post scores. If I read you cant see the stream I will send updates.
Go Lou!!!

Incarnate Word won by 40 tonight (3/6) to advance past their districts.

Napheesa Collier's stats in 3 quarters played:

21 points, 17 rebounds, 9 blocks, 5 assists, 3 steals

Need to fix this line. The original info was inaccurate.

Collier had 21 points, 6 rebounds, 10 blocks, 6 assists, 5 steals

I'll almost certainly be watching and passing along updates.

Incredible day for Crystal Dangerfield. She is now a 2-time state champion because Blackman won in double overtime today. Dangerfield scored 18 points and was named tourney MVP.

Dangerfield is also now Miss Basketball in the state of Tennessee as she won that award today as well.

A look at Mater Dei's State title road which begins Friday. Another meeting with Chaminade in the final looms.

I choose to remember Crystal Dangerfield's play this week. The Connecticut commitment committed just one turnover in three games. And she did it with a sore left ankle. But she never complained. She just gutted it out and played.

I do not believe that Lou's game on Friday and next Tuesday are streamed. I will be glad to post quarterly updates for those who are still up. Should they play on Saturday the 21st, in the Regional final(against Chaminade again?) that may be streamed. if so, it could be the same site. But lets take one step at a time.

Lou goes up to the rim on Saturday night.

Lou goes up to the rim on Saturday night.

That is just a great picture! Did not know KLS could jump that high. Maybe it's an optical illusion a bit?

I remember the play. It was 2nd half and she cut to the basket and got a great pass for a lay-up. It could be the perception from the angle but I don't believe the picture was doctored or photo shopped. I knew she can get up high. I believe either her freshman year at Edison HS or her sophomore year at Mater Dei she was on the track team in the high jump event.
By the way, notice the bandage on her left elbow. She got it banged up a bit in the previous game vs Bishop Alemany(see my avatar for a picture of Lou from that game).

Best wishes to Mater Dei and Lou! They need to work VERY hard on breaking a press. That is their big vulnerability and the reason they have 2 losses.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Geno told Lobo that KLS both shoots and plays defense like KML.

 

[ochoopsfan]

I wouldnt be surprised if Geno makes it to Lou's game on Friday night. If Mater Dei wins the next game, for Lou, will be Tuesday and with the NCAA draw on Monday that may be pushing it.

OC: Breanna can dunk [easily] though she has never done it in a game.
Those hops that LouConn is exhibiting are impressive. Can she dunk?

I will ask her mom on Friday night.

 

[browneyedwoman]

Yea, we know that. We are wondering about her hops.
