Some good stuff in this article.
Auriemma was impressed with the Bulls.
“They are a tough bunch, because they make you guard a lot of different things, and they have got so much quickness sand big kids that can shoot. That’s a tough matchup for us.”
“Jose’s done a pretty good job of recruiting,” continued Auriemma. “Orekhova is almost impossible to guard, because her range is five feet behind the three-point line. We made a bunch of mistakes on her in the first half.”
Auriemma also raved about sophomore center Stefanie Dolson, who added 18 rebounds to her 22 points.
“Feels like we were playing two against their team,” he said. “We couldn’t buy a bucket from the perimeter, so they sat in the lane. It’s kind of nice to win a game without us shooting 10-20 from the three-point line and everything goes in. So I was kind of pleased with that.”
