A win for GU would lock up another conference championship. They are currently 2 1/2 games ahead of BYU, both have 3 games remaining after this one (according to the schedule; not sure if any missing games will be rescheduled).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Slow start for the Zags. Trailing 8-5 midway thru Q1. They seem to have seized momentum, but both teams shooting poorly.

 

[nwhoopfan]

So many missed bunnies for both teams. Coast to coast epidemic.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Tied at 12 thru Q1. UGLY game so far.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Holy cow, if you think Brink from Stanford is thin, you should see Perri from BYU.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Level of play has picked up significantly.

Kempton big off the bench for GU.

Hamson swatting everything for BYU.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Okay, now we have a pretty good game. 31-30 GU at the half.

Hamson swatting everything for BYU.

I know who she must be related to.

 

[nwhoopfan]

BYU drills a LONG 3 at the Q3 buzzer to go up 47-43.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gonzales was scoreless until just before halftime, when she got 5 quick points. She had 9 in Q3, now leading everybody w/ 14.

 

[Shades]

Pretty good teams here.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Zags on upset alert. Down 10 about midway thru Q4.

Their leading scorer on the season has 3 points on 1-6 shooting. Not gonna get it done.

 

[nwhoopfan]

BYU trying to choke this way.

 

[nwhoopfan]

BYU absolutely falling apart. 7-0 GU run to cut it to 3 and they have the ball back.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Another one of those games, refs have been letting them play all game, now calling everything.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Zags cut it to 1 w/ 46 seconds left. Kudos to GU for the come back, but BYU has gone brain dead. Absolutely trying to give this one away.

 

[nwhoopfan]

BYU looked like they were going to dribble out the shot clock, but Harding w/ an improbably left handed flip in the lane goes in.

 

[nwhoopfan]

59-56 13 seconds left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

61-56 final. Creme had BYU in his Last 4 In. This solidifies their position.
