In a scintillating match up of 0-3 teams between Washington and Colorado, somebody will get their first conference win tonight.

I didn't see a C of C vs Elon thread, but anyway.. Elon leads at the end of the first quarter 24-16.

 

[triaddukefan]

The Phoenix are up 52-42 heading into the fourth quarter.

Go Elon!

My son is in the pep band, BTW

What instrument does he play

 

[HuskyNan]

Baritone horn. It looks like a smaller tuba. Far right

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona leading Cal 19-13 after Q1. McDonald has 8. She has back to back 30 point games, on pace again.

Anigwe has 4 for Cal.

 

[Plebe]

Arizona leads Cal 19-13 after 1Q. Arizona has 5 steals in just the 1st quarter. McDonald has 8 points.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UA 33-22 just before half time. McDonald w/ 14, Anigwe w/ 8.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oh wow. Kennedy Leonard is in a boot and not playing tonight. Colorado can hardly afford that. The injury woes continue across the Pac 12.

 

[Plebe]

Arizona has held Cal to a season-low first-half total of 22 points. Cal is shooting 29% and has 11 turnovers.

Mmmmm, that spells disaster for Colorado. She's the one player they can't live without.

 

[nwhoopfan]

I'm recording it and will watch later, but UW has seized on Colorado's misfortune and jumped out to an 11-2 lead a couple minutes in.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona-Cal tightening up.

OSU-UCLA looks like a grinder.

UW running away from Colorado and Utah has Wazzu doubled up.

 

[nwhoopfan]

41-36 Arizona at the end of Q3. McDonald has 20. 10 pts/13 boards for Anigwe, Caldwell has 11 for Cal.

 

[Plebe]

Cal drew within 2 but then McDonald hit another 3 to give AZ a 5-point lead after 3Q.

McDonald has 20 points. @nwhoopfan compared her recently to Kelsey Plum. She actually reminds me more of Odyssey Sims. Lefty, quick hands, explosive feet, just nearly impossible to contain.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Wow, Utah is on a mission. Up 37-16 about midway thru Q2.

 

[Plebe]

Arizona really struggling to contain Anigwe, and Cal is finding her with better passes. She has 13 points, 16 rebounds, and 6 blocks.

 

[nwhoopfan]

McDonald must be scoring almost all of Arizona's points in the 2nd half. She has 29 now. Clinging to a lead 52-49.

She is 6-10 in the 2nd half, the rest of the team is 2-16.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Tied up inside a minute left. Anigwe on the verge of a 20-20 game.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Colorado and Wazzu have snuck back into their games after being blown out early. Both are at halftime.

OSU leads UCLA 29-22 late in Q2, Pivec has 13.

 

[Plebe]

Two more FTs by McDonald gives AZ a 4-point lead with 33 secs left. She now has 33 points.

How many games in a row can she score 30+? 3 and counting currently.
