Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

[Tonyc]

Azzi

 

[jcoton56]

Great to see her perform in the home town.

 

[Next 12]

This game it was AZZI, going away.

 

[pghhuskydoc]

KK. Her defense was superb, and her shots are starting to fall

 

[oldude]

Just click your heels together 3 times and say, "There's no place like home...."

AZZI

 

[dtbtbtb]

Azzi! so happy for her that she had such a good game!

 

[Topdawg]

I vote for Azzi again.

 

[Basingstoke]

Obviously, Azzi and Sarah were great, but, for me, Morgan was the badass of the game (with an honorable mention to KK for her first half intensity).

 

[Majic Hands]

Sarah​

 

[Jonathan14]

KK. She changed the complexion of the game with her pesky defense and her leadership on the offensive end. I feel more and more like good things happen when she's on the court.

 

[The deacon]

Sarah had 16, 9, 6 and 3 and gets virtually no support here?

Azzi made her threes, which we all loved and no doubt went over big at home, but otherwise had 1 rebound and 1 assist.... Sarah was the badass.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

KK

 

[HuskyNan]

Sarah had 16, 9, 6 and 3 and gets virtually no support here?

Azzi made her threes, which we all loved and no doubt went over big at home, but otherwise had 1 rebound and 1 assist.... Sarah was the badass.

Again, the badass recognition isn’t a player of the game award. Maybe we should add one

 

[packwrap]

I'll go with KK, she was the clutch difference maker when things were not going great.

This game I nominated Sarah. As much as I considered Morgan, Ash, and KK.

It’s hard picking the BA when any 2-4 other picks couldn't be argued with.

I really like it when it’s hard to pick just 1. That tells me the “team” is getting it together.

I always give a like whenever a poster picks just 1.

I always want to vote for Jana and am honestly looking forward to the day I’m able to nominate her for the BA.

 

[Bone Dog]

Ash. With a line like that what else can you do.

Well said, Nan... that's exactly my point why Sarah, rather than the higher scorer, Azzi, would be a more appropriate badass.

 

[Bone Dog]

Ok, here’s my reasoning for giving it to Ash: she had a great game at both ends. But it was also especially gritty. For example, when she chased down Kelsey Ransom on a break at 7:20 in the 4th and blocked the shot.

 

[MooseJaw]

Ash.

 

[Dogstar]

I'm going with Sarah, not bcus of the 16 points and the 9 rebonds which we have come to expect but throw in the 6 assists and 3 steals from /C positions, both higher thn her season averages and both taking a little of the sting out of not having Paige available....and whether you call her Sarah, Smooth, or Silk I'm just happy to call her a Husky!

Reading Bone Dog's reasoning for picking Ashlynn, it occurs to me how fortunate we are to have both her and KK, who seem willing to do whatever is asked of them whenever it is asked. They always give 100% and bring a positive attitude, whether as starters or bench players. And they do the little things that don't appear in box scores, like boxing out, defensive deflections, and tie-ups—the things that drive the opposing team nuts. And this from two athletes who were starters on a Final Four team last season and now find their roles less defined. No whining, no hanging their heads, no drama. Just hard work and buying into the team concept. Their efforts are what come to mind when I think of the BY Badass Award.

 

[Ozimoto]

I think Ashlyn had a great all round game.

 

[reelfan]

Sarah for her highlight plays.

 

[Bigboote]

I’m going with Shade. That one play in the fourth where she ran down the Georgetown player to get the block on a breakaway was totally badass to add to a game where she made so many hustle plays.
