Pac-12 action tonight (Fri. 1/4)

[nwhoopfan]

Never mind. Back to back buckets by Cazorla (finally!) and Ionescu.

 

[nwhoopfan]

We are returning to reality. 50-41 UO and Grigsby has missed a couple 3's.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Boley hadn't scored in a while, just nailed a corner 3. 53-41, still plenty of time for this to become a blowout.

Melgoza is 2-9. She's a good player, but she's just been struggling mightily for the last month or so. I think she's just trying too hard or something.

 

[nwhoopfan]

OSU-WSU off to a slow start. 8-6 Beavs about halfway thru Q1.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Colorado has come back to tie it up at 48 w/ about 3 minutes to go in Q3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well UW isn't quite dead yet. Melgoza starting to get it going. Lead down to 6.

 

[nwhoopfan]

22-10 Colorado in Q3 and they have surged ahead.

 

[Plebe]

Colorado outscores Arizona 26-14 to take a 3-point lead after 3Q.

Kennedy Leonard of CU has 9 assists. She's so dang underrated.

 

[nwhoopfan]

58-51 UO after 3Q. Long video review by the refs after a pushoff by Ionescu. Much ado about nothing.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Utah up 3 late in Q3. That one is probably going down to the wire.

 

[nwhoopfan]

OSU was leading 16-14 after Q1. Looks like they are heating up, now leading 28-18.

 

[Plebe]

Oh man, Daneesha Provo of Utah (one of their key players) went down with a knee injury that has ACL written all over it. Sigh. I can't stand watching these injuries.

Darn it, not another one. Sad news.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona has regained the lead. About 7 minutes left. 25 points for McDonald.

 

[nwhoopfan]

After being quiet in Q3 Grigsby has gotten involved again. UO up 66-60. I'm really impressed by how hard UW has battled. Where has this version of the Huskies been hiding?

 

[HuskyFan1125]

This is Washington/Oregon game is entertaining. Washington came to play.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Where has this version of Melgoza been? She's taking over. And-1 coming up, could cut the lead to 1.

 

[nwhoopfan]

ASU-Utah and UA-Utah are both close late in the game. Exciting night of action in the Pac 12.

OSU is getting a big lift from the bench again. 19 combined points, still in Q2. Leading 40-27. Hristova carrying the Cougs.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dagger by Boley. Up 7 now.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Arizona-Utah tied inside a minute left, ASU up 1 w/ about 5 minutes left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

OSU scores 28 in Q2, leading 44-31 at halftime.

 

[Plebe]

Gonna be an exciting finish in Boulder. McDonald scored 5 consecutive points to give Arizona a 2-point lead, and then Leonard answered with a couple FTs. Then a fluky play leads to an layup for Arizona. 69-67 with 34 secs left.

Btw McDonald is a bit of a trash-talker, I notice. She and Leonard have a "little thing going," as the announcers said. McDonald has 32 points and 8 steals. Leonard has 11 points and 11 assists.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UCLA up 10 at halftime. Cal could be in trouble. Can't lose home games.

 

[Plebe]

Colorado needs a bucket, down 2. They miss 2 shots but get the O board both times. They call their final timeout with 9 seconds to play to try and tie or win.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oregon up 10 w/ 1:20 left. Melgoza is a gamer, but she needs more help. They got a really unexpected 26 points from Grigsby, but nobody else in double figures.
