#1 Stanford @ Utah - 1/15/21

[nwhoopfan]

16-1 run by Stanford taking us to the media break in Q3. 56-26.

Brink is M.I.A. Played 2 minutes in Q1 I think, hasn't been in the game since.

She fouled twice in two minutes, so you sit for the first half with two fouls. Tara hasn’t put her back in yet—likely because Prechtel earned the playing time with her stellar half.

Lots of small ball. Brink and Prechtel can be on the floor together.


Jump getting going, she now has 3 3's.

Brink finally in and gets another foul instantly. She gets no benefit of the doubt from the refs, I have to say.

Q1 23-8
Q3 21-7

At least Q2 was even.

Hey, Stanford held out their best player, what else could they do?

 

[nwhoopfan]

30 out of 52 FGA for Stanford are behind the arc. They've hit 11. Not sure they're really shooting themselves out of a slump, just getting up lots of attempts. Especially when you consider they started 5-9.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Brink w/ foul #4. All she has to do is be in the vicinity of a shooter and the refs are gonna get her.

 

[Lorcan]

Yeah, I haven't agreed on some of Brink's fouls, but that's probably why Jerome started. Jerome isn't averse to foul trouble like Prechtel and Brink.

Yeah, Prechtel also has 4. Jerome logging some minutes today but not really producing anything.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well Brink might've earned foul #5. Managed 8 minutes, so not quite a foul a minute pace.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Stanford went cold for a quite a while, but now the 3's falling again. Jump has 5 of them. Team is 14-36.

 

[nwhoopfan]

82-54 final. Entire 4th quarter was garbage time for Stanford.

 

[nwhoopfan]

18 for Williams, 15 for Jump, 14 each for Lexie and Pretchel, 13 for Belibi.

Utes w/ only 2 in double figures, 11 for Martin and 10 for McQueen.

 

[Lorcan]

Yeah, I mean, it’s Utah, but still impressive that Stanford won by 28 without their best player. Very nice to see Prechtel and Jump ball out, curious to see Sunday.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well...at least Utah gets to play Cal next.
