Ines and The 'Zags

[donalddoowop]

They’ll be on ESPN2 Sunday vs Stanford. A rare chance for us east coasters to see the Zags.

The game starts at 2:00 pm CT. Also, Maryland will be on FS1 against Duke at 12:00 am CT. Maryland has former UConn players McClean, DeBerry and Poffenbarger.

I think Ines' chance to play at a really good program like Gonzaga was due to her being on the bench at Uconn. If she had gone to that small school in FL, she would have gotten minutes but never had the exposure Uconn gave her.

True, but let's not forget that in her freshman year, when circumstances forced her to play crucial minutes, she performed admirably to preserve a couple of wins for UConn. Her performance shone the spotlight on her

Not so good today. Stanford jumped all over Gonzaga right out of the gate and it's just getting worse in the second half. Nobody from GU having a particularly good game.

I watched some of the game. Really watched for Ines. So happy she's at a school where she's getting to play a lot. But she really wouldn't get any playing time for most high level programs. A mid-major is the perfect place for her!! A solid player and wish her the best!

Ines led the Zags in scoring with 16 points as they beat Wyoming 62-51 in Spokane. She went 5-10, 2-3 from 3, 4-5 from the line, all 4 makes were in the last minute and 17 seconds of the game.

Ines played well and looked confident in her play. The Stanford game, it was expected that she would struggle. The whole team struggled but it was nice to see Ines play well against Wyoming.

Ines scored 14 points with going 5-11 and 4-8 from 3pt land with 4 steals and 2 blocks in 29 minutes of play in Gonzaga's 81-68 win over New Mexico. She unfortunately had 4 turnovers also.

In tonight's season opener, Gonzaga beat Montana 82-69 and Ines Bettencourt played 33 minutes and scored 16 points with 5 assists, 2 steals and just 2 turnovers. Great start! Many of their games on shown live on ESPN+.

Why can't we get kids like that?

Ines look so comfortable out there! She played solid. I just love how she is leading the offense.

I think Ines is in the right place for her. Ive watched a few games and I believe she made a good choice.

I also have been following Hana Muhl and shes looking pretty good too at times. Both are very good players but at the same time neither play at the level needed to get much court time at UCONN.
