ECU making a run here, 32-20 with less than 3 to play in the 2nd quarter

 

[HuskyNan]

Saniya had the right idea - take it right at them.

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS for 3!!! 35-20 2:27 2nd

 

[Blue Huskie]

The bull in the china shop approach seems to be paying off for ECU right now.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

UConn was a 50-pt favorite and have been outscored 10-4 in the quarter.

 

[JavaMan]

Finally ...Lou for 3

 

[EricSD]

Is the box score correct? UCONN has scored 4 points in 7.5 minutes in the 2nd quarter??

 

[StephStorrs]

Adjustments will have to be made at the half - at this point, I'm just concerned with the safety of our players as the game appears to have gotten increasingly physical as time goes on.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Chong for 3!! 38-22 1:42 2nd

 

[Blue Huskie]

CHONG for THREE!!

Yep. ECU is playing really physically.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Nice move by Kia down the lane for 2 40-24

 

[TitleTown]

Why are they overplaying the perimeter and getting beat on so many back cuts when ECU has done nothing from the outside?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

KLS has looked gassed for five minutes.

 

[TitleTown]

I would go zone and force them to make jump shots

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kia for 3!!! 46-24 half

 

[JordyG]

The announcers note how Saniya was "exposed" defensively off the dribble, but both she and Kia are getting beaten.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Geno looks like he is trying to find a ref to jaw on.

How many times have we seen some freshman or walk on that never shoots threes make 4 or 5 from ther perimeter? Gotta guard them

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nice play to end the half.

[JordyG]

Honestly guys, if UConn plays a team like Mississippi State, this is what they're to expect. The refs can't call every foul and by the last quarter the refs will just stop calling anything.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Geno: When they foul on every play you can't keep calling them. But you have to deal with it.

 

[EricSD]

Nice run to end the quarter. Down 11-4 in the 2nd quarter, the outscored ECU 14-4. I'm quickly realizing I don't like ECU much. Overly physical play has no place in WCBB. Someone could get injured...

And I disagree - the refs CAN call every foul, and should do so until the other team stops fouling, or runs out of players.
