A new year of basketball: Dec. 30-Jan. 6

Gonzaga gets a bit of revenge after losing to BYU 3 times last year--55-43 in Provo. BYU's offense is busted. They scored 34 against Oregon St. a couple weeks ago.

BYU cut the lead to 1 in mid-3Q but then were outscored 21-10 over the last 5 minutes.

I didn't watch it, I saw that GU was up 14 at half. BYU went on a big run, then GU answered w/ a big run of their own.

They're currently showing the replay on byutv.org
 
Villanova currently leads Seton Hall 51-46 midway through 4Q. Nova looking improved over their November and December form.

Streaming on YouTube:
 
One interesting thing about Villanova is that they're led in scoring by redshirt freshman Madison Siegrist, who's averaging more than 20 ppg. Only Dyaisha Fair of Buffalo is scoring more as a freshman.

Siegrist has won 5 out of the 8 Big East Freshman of the Week awards so far. (St. John's Leilani Correa has won the other 3.)
 
Villanova wins 61-55. Villanova had just enough 3 pt shooting (10-30) and enough discipline on offense to hold off Seton Hall which could not replicate the strong 3pt shooting they exhibited against us (5-27) and tried to rely on their speed and physicality.
 
DePaul up 15, 51-36, at 3rd quarter media TO. Lots of Friar turnovers and only a couple of shots in the 3rd so far.
 
I see that DePaul opened 3Q on a 12-0 run to put some distance on Providence. Morris and Bekelja have 16 each.

But Morris and Lexi Held now have 4 fouls. Could spell major trouble for DePaul, which isn't a deep team this year.

The Friars played the beginning of the 3rd just like we did last night, more turnovers than shots. DePaul took advantage.
 
Providence got it down to 10, then DePaul drained a couple of 3s, to make it 80-64 with 1 minute to go. Bruno put his bench players in.
 
Drake beat Northern Iowa 104-87, Hittner scored 37 (18-18 from the FT line, that's a lot of trips to the charity stripe). And that was w/ UNI outscoring DU 34-16 in Q4.

Hittner had a poor OOC by her standards. Starting the new year off on the right foot.
 
Creighton-Marquette going down to the wire, Jays up 3 w/ under 2 minutes to play.

Didn't catch this game, but looking at the box score Creighton really won this at the line, 16-21 vs. 1-3 for Marquette.

:eek: Wow. Disparities happen, but that's is huge.
 
Watching Washington @ Cal. Decent start to the game. UW jumped out early but Cal has tied it. Melgoza looking like the Melgoza of old, I think she has 10 already in Q1.
 
36-24 UW at halftime, Melgoza w/ 18 on 7-9 shooting.

Cal has 14 O boards but not doing much with it.
 
Washington looking extremely sketchy in Q3, leading 44-36 but that could evaporate fast. I don't know if they are capable of playing back to back good halves of ball, I haven't seen it yet.
 
UW leading 52-47 thru Q3. I don't like the look of this, they've coughed up leads in Q4 several times this year. It's pretty much Melgoza or nothing at this point. She has 26.
 
56-55. Cal is gonna pull this one out. I've seen this too many times, good first half by UW followed by a terrible second half.

edit--Cal grabs their first lead since the first minute of the game 57-56. This was a winnable game but Dawgs are blowing it.
