Diamond takes over title game in Myrtle Beach

[MilfordHusky]

Norcross beat Xylina's team (remember her?), as Diamond scored half of her team's points and led a late run to beat Spring Valley, 54-53. Was Geno still there?

Diamond is a player!

That's a great write up. I wonder how much of the game Diamond and Xylina guarded one another.

If UConn gets DD, the 90-win streak may just go down. Not saying it will, but very possible. By the time KML is gone, DD would be a junior with Stewart, Tuck, and MoJeff seniors. That's a nasty lineup.

KML lost a game in her 2nd month. Slouch! Maya went twice as long. But KML will not lose many more, just as Maya did not.

Moriah is shooting 48% from 3-point range. Morgan can hit the 3. Breanna can hit the 3. All can get to the rack. And that's our bench!

If Breanna lived where I do, she would be known as The Washington Post!

I knew this was going to happen... but I thought "presence" would have been used!

Geno was not there. He got the blowout game as the semis were while we played C of C, and the finals were on travel day (back). They rarely guarded each other. Diamond was scary. She didn't do all that much for most of the game. With 5 minutes left and down 10, rebounds and steals got her the ball in the open court and the lead was gone instantly. We should take a look at #32, Shayla Cooper, on Diamond's team.

I'm always happy to play the straight man for my friends on the Boneyard.

Nice eyes-on report, Billybonggg! I have a question from the post-game press conference, the coach said this:

“We had to waste too many timeouts on motivational rebounding timeouts and that kind of thing,” Vikings coach Anne Long said.

What is a motivational rebounding timeout? When the coach takes a time-out to yell at her players for dogging it on the boards?

I hope we get Diamond. She looks amazing.

buddy you havent heard... we already have her

That's what some thought about Laura Harper.

I hope she is leaning our way, but I take nothing for granted.

A motivational timeout is required when Bria Hartley out-rebounds your center 9-6. To make the day worse, anyone who focused on pushing Stephanie Dolson around usually found themself on the floor looking up. I think she's had it with people trying to intimidate her.

She was tweeting about "Team Nike" and hmm UConn is Nike and some of her other schools like Tennessee and Maryland are not. Just another feather in the cap for Geno.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I was hoping that Geno would get a Diamond for Christmas. We'll see in time.
