As close to a perfect game as they have played so far this year. Marquette has to look at that game and say "uh oh."

I agree with Christyn getting the award. Excellent game!

Continued defensive effort. Liv and AAliya playing hi lo effectively Improved outside shooting

I am very surprised to see that. I was concerned it was a high ankle sprain or worse where she was grabbing it after she went down. Hope she takes the time to let it heal. I don't want a KLS repeat where a sprained ankle (it that's all it really was) ended up requiring surgery after she...

UConn 81, Villanova 63.

The Irish may score more points next season, but they will also need to start playing some defense.

Fatigue.

Huskies 83, St. Johns 56.

Good new indeed! Especially for Anna's health.

You are all assuming that Nika won't make a sophomore jump? Admittedly not all players do, but with her apparent drive and what we hear of her work ethic, I think it's reasonable to assume that she will improve going into next season. Azzi has a reputation of being a can't miss player and she...

It's a Canadian thing...;)

Didn't see the game but looking at the box score it looks like it was an ugly game.

25 point MOV. UConn 87, Marquette 62.

For awhile there I had flashbacks to Arkansas, but they played pretty well for the last three quarters of the game.

Wife had Pfizer. First shot was a piece of cake. Second shot had a headache. Sore arm both times of course. I had the Moderna vaccine. First shot, nada. Second shot from 12 to 24 hours felt like I had the flu. And sore arm both times.

Continuing defensive effort. At times it looks like a choreographed dance out there. Continuous movement in the half court offense. No stalling of the ball movement Evina and Nika taking jumpers at the elbow or in the lane.

Yeah, those Canadians and their crazy kids show "You Can't do that on Television." Home of the green slime.

I think we need to remember that these freshmen have not experienced a college season before. A lot more games and a lot more travel. Not to mention the herky jerky stumbling through the season with the pandemic. These kids aren't machines, and for those with short memories, Stewie went into...

UConn 89, Bulldogs 40

Ah well, it was good to be in the lead for awhile...

The game was never in doubt but except for Nika I kind of felt blah about this one. They seemed flat. A lot of forced shots at the buzzer for Creighton and they hit a number of those. Creighton runs a motion offense much like UConn does so you have to chase a lot on defense. Maybe that's why...

No doubt. I don't expect this from her every game, but if she can be counted on to keep shooting to keep defenses honest while providing around a dozen points a game (in addition to her defense) the Huskies will be in good shape.

Not just shots, but made shots! Not too many misses or rebounding opportunities in that one.

1. Continued effort on defense 2. Continued ball movement and player movement without the ball 3. Evina and Nika taking pull up jumpers in the lane when the defense sags off them anticipating a pass.

Maryland typically lays an egg somewhere along the line in their conference tournament or the NCAA's but lately this team is not showing that tendency. If they can remain consistent through the last stretch of the season, I wouldn't want to play them. They have a lot of players who can put the...

I noticed that too!

Unfortunately, the number of people who think this way seems to be shrinking...

That was no simple roll over accident. That front end hit something.

The DePaul game may provide a confidence boost to the Blue Jays. Won't matter with the Husky defense. I think Paige will be more productive point wise this game. UConn 93, Creighton 52

Probably in Croatian. ;)

This year you can't sleep on anyone.

To paraphrase Yoda, "Do, or do not. There is no try."

Some of that has to do with UConn's motion offense and the way they set screens.

Well aren't you a bundle of joy...

As to the relatively low number of shots the last two games, I think that was a function of Georgetown and St. John's trying to limit the number of Husky possessions by slowing down the game and using the majority of the shot clock on each possession. The Husky defense also forced both teams to...
