Friday conference tournament games

I have an awfully important announcement.
Orange Mountain Designs (The Lady Vols Store at Knoxville, TN) had arranged a book signing event at Carolina Ale House in Greenville, SC on Saturday.
The author Maria M. Cornelius would have autographed copies of "The Final Season".
The event has been cancelled.
Blame the Lady Vols for looking past Alabama to the book signing event this weekend.

Boo-Hoo.

Oregon-Washington are tied up 15-15 in Q1.

I'd forgotten that both Ionescu and Cazorla didn't play when these teams met way back on Dec. 30.

 

[Plebe]

Wow, Oregon really came to play, up 22-17 after Q1. Big hometown crowd turned out and the energy in the building is popping.

Ionescu already has 9 points on three 3-pointers. Hebard has 6.

Plum has 7 and all Washington starters have scored.

I love my team

I love my team

The people want a meme!

It was really a great win. Duke weathered the early turnover storm and got Syracuse to falter in the 2nd half. They never let Peterson get comfortable on offense.

If your awake on east coast and get the PAC-12 Network the Oregon/Washington game is fantastic!!

Oregon up in the second quarter 28-26!!!

The advantage of living out west.

I really am loving the Pac-12 Network. Thank God for my Sling TV

Mary Murphy just might be my favorite color analyst right now. She adds so much value to the game.

Plum was on a roll until she missed her last 4 shots I think. Has 15 at the half. Another night where the rest of the Huskies aren't doing enough. McDonald scored 5 just before the half, before that Plum was pretty much on her own in the 2nd quarter. Osahor has 14 rebounds already but only 2 points.

Oregon is playing well. Offensive rebounding has been the key for them. 8 O boards and I think at least 12 points off of those.

Her last 5 shots, if the play-by-play is correct. But she is still 7 of 14 so far.

Both teams were hot in 1Q but cooled off in 2Q.

You poor East Coasters, you should be watching this game. Blistering pace to the 3rd quarter. UW goes on a run, up 46-41, forces UO to call a TO. Plum heating up, now has 23, some of her teammates helping out a bit. Osahor w/ 16 rebounds. Still more than 5 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter.

Plum with an 8-point burst and then gets the assist from a seated position to Romeo for a 3. That puts U-Dub up by 5 and forces Graves to call TO.

This game is freakin' awesome.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UW up 48-41 at the media TO. Can Oregon respond? Hebard w/ another O board and will be shooting FTs when action resumes. Plum now w/ 25 on 11-19 FG.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

This is such a great game. Too bad this isn't the final!!!

 

[nwhoopfan]

26 pts in the 3rd quarter for UW. Osahor finally getting going a little bit on offense. She has 22 rebounds and 5 assists along w/ 7 points. Plum w/ 27. UW leads 57-51. Cazorla and Ionescu w/ a couple big 3's to keep the Ducks in the game. A bit surprising UO is 8-18 on 3's and UW is only 4-17.

 

[Plebe]

UW up by 6 at end of 3Q.
Plum has 27 points, Osahor with 22 rebounds (!!).

Oregon's scoring has balanced out, with 4 players in double figures.
Hebard has 13 and 8.
Ionescu has filled every column of the box score except turnovers.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Yea. Mary Murphy is a great announcer. She sticks to the game. Doesn't get off tangent a lot if at all! For me former coaches are great analysts (Dan Hughes/Mike Thibeault)!

 

[HuskyFan1125]

THIS GAME!!!! Tied at 64 with 5 minutes to go!!! Best game of the quarterfinals.

This Oregon team is gonna be good in the coming years!!! They are freshman and sophomores

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oregon is out of their mind shooting 3's. 11-22, Bando has 5 and Ionescu has 4. Just erased an 8 point deficit, now tied at 64 w/ 5 minutes left, forced UW to call a TO. Plum has 34. Osahor has 23 rebounds, broke the single game conference tourney record. Chiney Ogwumike and Jillian Alleyne were tied w/ the record previously.

And I love her knack for soundbites and metaphors. When she was marveling at Oregon's unorthodox defense with a guard covering Osahor and a post covering McDonald, she goes, "Talk about tossing the salad!"

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Clutch shots after clutch shots in this game!!

 

[HuskyFan1125]

OMG!!!

69-68 with 26 seconds. Oregon ball.

Can the ducks get the upset?? Regardless if they can't they are in the tourney. No way Oregon is out!

Wow - great game! Ionescu sinks 2 FT's for OR to take the lead 70-69 with 6.4 seconds left!

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Pack 12 freshman of the year sabrina inoescu steps up to the line and sinks two free throws

Oregon lead 70 to 69 with six seconds left
