I've never started one, so the testmeister will ask, what will the score be?

 

[OneTrickPony]

85 - 55 UCONN...sorry, no real logic...

 

[johnnyc]

Kara Wolters does an excellent job.

 

[meyers7]

Oh wow, is there a game today?

 

[RadyLady]

3 zip UConn, yes vs Hartford Hawks at UHart

 

[wire chief]

First tv time out--points from Bria, Kelly, Caroline & Kaleena

 

[speedoo]

Hawks are scrappy, no surprise with Jen as the coach. But they are way overmatched talent and size wise.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Might have to revise both those scores down...

 

[OneTrickPony]

KML says revise one number back up, please...

 

[OneTrickPony]

Bria coast to coast...

 

[OneTrickPony]

Seeing a little prime Bria...perfect timing!

 

[wire chief]

36-8...Kelly offense-minded. Three drives, 3 baskets, 3 foul shots.

 

[wire chief]

Banks in only briefly, don't know why.

You can't get called for travelling for sitting on the floor Pattyson

Kelly Faris...finally a real wide receiver on the end of the bomb...

 

[OneTrickPony]

The Sultan with another swaaaat!

We've broken 50 & only 15 for the Hawks. The first 2 minutes looked sluggish, but we certainly made up for it. A few silly TO's near the end. Next we'll look to see if UConn can keep at it, or will we fall off like we have this year, when we have a big lead.

Stef and Breanna need to work on the high-low passes...Chiney's going to eat those lobs up...

Kelly Faris...finally a real wide receiver on the end of the bomb...

That was a nice play.

With that big of a lead, right before everyone flies out for Christmas.....that'll be tough to stay focused.

Well even in the last game vs. Oakland, UCONN was up huge in the 1st half, then for the first 10 minutes of the 2nd half, they basically played us even... I think we scored 61 in the 1st half, and 36 in the 2nd. I bet Buck sees lots of time in the 2nd half but i'd love to see Moriah start scoring. she's a great defender and love watching her sprint around with the ball, but her scoring has been nonexistent lately...

 

[Adesmar123]

That interior pass needs to be a lob...if its "rifled in" it get stolen by a shorter player. Then we hear how it has to be a lob.

It just needs to be lower pass but one above the reach of the defenders. .

 

[OneTrickPony]

Moriah Jefferson ill...

 

[OneTrickPony]

Doty stepped on the other players foot and turned her left ankle...looks like she got her weight off of it in time...

 

[OneTrickPony]

So far UCONN 62% from the floor and 70% on three's...and Hartford actually working hard on defense...
