Marist-Bonnies (& other games in progress)

[alexrgct]

If Cal stays within five of ND in South Bend, Cardfan gets one free gloat about the PAC-12 before she's cut. So say I.

 

[HuskyNan]

ND is missing shots but I've got to give Cal a lot of credit. The crowd is LOUD but the Golden Bears are holding on to their composure and keeping the game close.

Interrupting this thread for breaking news - Natalie Novosel is shooting free throws!

You're interrupting a perfectly good thread to discuss basketball?

I much prefer Novosel when she is whining over not shooting FTs.

If she is going to get a call anyway, someone should just pancake that girl.

FTA game summary: Novosel 11 - Cal 4!

 

[HuskyNan]

That Clarendon (sp?) kid from Cal has Hrynko-hair as well as her aggressiveness. Good for her.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Imagine paying $41 for a game ticket and $15 to park--for a Georgetown game!

 

[HuskyNan]

Well, golly, Cal with a 2 point lead with about one minute left in the half.

 

[Replicant]

Hat tip to Cal for hanging in there playing two teams tonight!

More grating Southern accent- Carolyn Peck or Nell Fortner?

Nell Fortner w/o a doubt. She makes Carolyn Peck look like a mensa member.

The "unwatchable game" has 68 pts scored after one half. Some people here thought they wouldn't score that much all game. Meanwhile Sugar is 1-7 and GT is shooting 55%.

it's more that I just don't care than it is the game play.

Good start to the second half for Marist. 42-40 St B

 

[justML]

Milford! Did someone say "Milford"?

Do you still live in Milford? I lived there from about age 7 to college graduation. What a great place to grow up!

 

[alexrgct]

This is a great game. 47-44 Marist.

 

[Blueballer]

Somebody could score 40 Points in a game tonight but all we'll hear about is the Griner dunk.

 

[alexrgct]

Now 47-47. Just like that.

oh crap- that happened?

I've heard very tall players can do that sometimes.

Back to ND-Cal for me!

 

[alexrgct]

But see, people dunk routinely in the
men's game, so if one woman does it from time to time, that will totally bring more casual fans to WCBB.

 

[alexrgct]

Giorgis-ing: far better than Tebow-ing.

 

[alexrgct]

54-49 St B with 7:56 to go. Marist's turn to go cold.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Do you still live in Milford? I lived there from about age 7 to college graduation. What a great place to grow up!

Nope. I lived there from age 2 to high school graduation plus a 1-year break of undergrad studies--between Lehigh and UConn.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Georgetown apparently lost their defense over the break.

Sugar is now 3-12: shooting her team out of the game, just as Shoni did last night.

 

[alexrgct]

Serious danger time for Marist. 60-53 St B with 5:34 left. Getting badly out-rebounded.
