Gametime: USA with Pheesa v. Canada with Kia

[MilfordHusky]

Achonwa looks great on both ends. Such a graceful player

Interior passes by the USA are being deflected regularly.

 

[MilfordHusky]

EW, rim protector. But a foul on the next play.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Another block by EWill.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nurse from Fairfield! 40-26.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Kia with a great drive, but misses the layup.

40-28 at the half. I think half of our 28 came on FTs. Offense looks abysmal.

I want Azzi Fudd on the floor.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Lou sighting!!!!!

Geno going to be interviewed next. Should be fun.

 

[HGN]

Too late for Geno to take over? Just kidding.

No you not.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sorry, gang, I was comparing notes with other BYers and listening to Geno.

58-48. USA had cut the deficit to 5.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Most aggressive players on the floor: Nurse (18 points) and Wilson (just picked up a charge)

 

[MilfordHusky]

A couple of highlights. I think both Tuck and Plum hit threes.

 

[MilfordHusky]

On one play, Pheesa stole the inbound pass, led the break, and fed Tina for a layup.

As Geno said, she may not be great at one thing, but she's very good at just about everything.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Another play: Wilson missed in close, missed the tip, and made the 3rd attempt. Beast on the boards. Geno noted it.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Geno also noted it when Tuck made consecutive buckets.

Wilson just got an offensive putback.

 

[MilfordHusky]

62-56 with 6:43 left. Nurse has 20.

 

[eebmg]

Kia looking great. Canada will need her to be special to hold of the US

 

[MilfordHusky]

Wilson misses and Collier cleans it up. The UConn team cheers big time.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Raincock-Ekewne (?) did a nice job for the Liberty last year. She's pretty good.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Plum hits a trey to pull the USA to 60-62.

Now tied after a Wilson bucket.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nurse drives the lane, puts up a shot, and Williams blocks it way into the stands.

 

[eebmg]

Colliers pass in the open court opened up Wilson's layup. Collier on the court in crunch time tells me all I need to know.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Kia Nurse is the ultimate Badass. She doesn't back down from anyone/anything.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Colliers pass in the open court opened up Wilson's layup. Collier on the court in crunch time tells me all I need to know.

A very smart player.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Good air time for the current Huskies--as Pheesa commits a foul.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Pheesa rebound!
