WSU is thumping UW 43-27 at halftime.

 

[Plebe]

Tonight Aari McDonald became just the 2nd player in Arizona wbb history to score 600 in a season.

Wow, and with plents of games left to play. She could get to 800 this year.

Was Barnes the first?

I didn't hear them say but I would definitely guess that.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Okay, WSU vs. UW they just had the EXACT same play as the UConn game where KLS got a layup and Dangerfield drew a blocking foul, but they waived the bucket off in this one. EXACTLY the same. Maybe they have different rules in the Pac 12?

Is this game on Pac-12 Washington or just WSU live stream?

 

[Plebe]

This USC-Cal game is important for both teams, for different reasons.

USC is on the wrong side of the bubble, desperately needing a quality win or two.
Cal is pretty safely in the tournament but needs more wins to avoid the dreaded 8/9 game.

Is this game on Pac-12 Washington

yes

This is a shootout so far. 26-19 USC nearing end of Q1.

Looking at box score, I see Molina has 11 points and 10 assists. She has developed really nicely as a floor general and passer this year, and I credit a lot of that to Kamie Ethridge, truly a legendary point guard, I consider her top 5 all time.

Molina was looking really good as a Fr. but then got hurt. Never really got it going as a soph. She's been really good this year from what I've seen of her.

Yeah I've really been pulling for her since her knee injury in that ASU game that I was watching at the time. Really nice to see players recover from a devastating injury and go on to great things.

 

[nwhoopfan]

It was 21-19 but USC is on an 11-0 run, now up 32-19. This team has talent. Not sure how they are only 4-8 in conference.

USC (Trojans) can play undisciplined basketball, and it hurts them in close games.

It's a tough conference. Swept by the Oregon, Bay Area and Arizona schools. Split with UCLA. They took down Utah but then lost to Colorado (their only truly bad loss).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cal has fought back, trailing only 39-37 now.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Uh oh, USC coach Mark Trakh just said Anigwe is the best big in the country. He must not know about Collier.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Everybody else went to bed? (well I guess it was just me and Plebe) Cal grabbed a brief lead, then USC went up 5 and Anigwe went to the bench w/ her 3rd foul. Big trouble for Cal, right? Nope, been all Bears since then. Now up 61-54 late in Q3. I think it was 51-46 USC when Anigwe went to the bench (she's since returned). 22-11 this quarter.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Momentum has totally flipped back to USC. Up 66-62. Anigwe on the bench w/ 4 fouls. 7:50 left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Back and forth we go. Reece Caldwell got hot and put Cal back in front, USC answered back. 79-76 USC, under 2 minutes left.

 

[biobioprof]

USC has been abusing Cal on dribble penetration

 

[nwhoopfan]

Yep. Mazyck has 26, Minyon Moore 25, most of it from in the lane.

 

[nwhoopfan]

USC up 6 w/ 20 seconds left and they have the ball.

 

[triaddukefan]

Minyon Moore is a nice little PG. A bit underrated perhaps?

 

[nwhoopfan]

86-76 final. Cal slips to 5-8, tied w/ USC. UCLA up next in the battle of ursas. Cal made the Tourney a couple years ago w/ a 6-12 conference record, but outside of Stanford they are lacking quality wins. I'm not so sure they're totally safe.

30 points and 14 rebounds for Anigwe but it wasn't enough.

Minyon Moore is a nice little PG. A bit underrated perhaps?

There are really good players on teams w/ mediocre and poor records in the Pac 12.
