#7 Arizona @ Washington St - 1/10/21

[nwhoopfan]

Turnovers starting to pile up for Arizona. They look terrible in Q4. Can WSU take advantage? 55-50 w/ just over 5 minutes left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

55-53

 

[LETTERL]

OMG! The Cougs might do it!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona is trying so hard to give this game away. They are begging for WSU to pass them by. Cougs aren't really complying.

 

[LETTERL]

Just turned on this game, after watching Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech.

Washington State just tied it up!

 

[nwhoopfan]

After being tied, Arizona scored to go up 2. Several empty possessions. UA has possession w/ 35.6 sec left (pending a review on the ball being tipped out of bounds).

 

[LETTERL]

Foul or attempt good defense and prevent a shot?

 

[LETTERL]

OMG! McDonald stepped on the end line. Then, WSU can't take advantage of the turnover.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Aari got tackled but the ref called a TO before the foul. Then WSU turned it back over.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Ethridge might have a point complaining about a no call there. It was close.

 

[LETTERL]

Now, WSU will have to foul and hope for a FT miss.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Now, WSU will have to foul and hope for a FT miss.

They already fouled didn't they? There's been so many breaks in the action lately I'm kinda lost on where we're at.

edit--I guess they didn't, but now they did. McDonald to the line. Split her last pair.

 

[LETTERL]

McDonald made 1 of 2...60-57 game, 28 seconds left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Aari missed another. Hit 1 of 2, 60-57 w/ 27.8 left.

McDonald was awesome in the first half but not very good in the second half. That could be said of all of the Cats. Absolutely awful 2nd half.

 

[LETTERL]

What a cool name: Bela Murekatete.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Bela w/ an O board and fouled on the put back attempt. That took A LOT of time. Down to 7.4 sec.

 

[LETTERL]

She has a HIGH arc on her FT attempts.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Hit the first, lane violation on the second. 60-58.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well...I guess I got my defensive grinder after all. Didn't look like it would go that way when UA scored 22 in Q1 and 40 in the first half.

 

[LETTERL]

TWO lane violations, one for each team, in the last 10 seconds of this one.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Reese missed both FTs, another lane violation on the 2nd one. Really weird finish to this game. Who wants to win it? WSU ball w/ 5.6 sec left, down 2.

 

[LETTERL]

Overtime in Pullman!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Easy layup to tie it. OT.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Murakete fouled out right at the end, so did Molina #2 who gave the Cougs some good minutes. Can the Leger-Walkers take over? Can McDonald get back on track after disappearing for most of the last 20 minutes?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona scored 7 in Q4! 20 in the 2nd half. Ugh.
