Quickie: UCONN vs Marquette

[meyers7]

I'll leave the individual details to doggy since he does such a good job. Just some team stuff.


UCONN Marquette
Scoring/Opp 84.6/45.5 69.0/67.3
FG %/3pt 50.2%/37.5% 43.4%/32.2%
Def FG% 29.5%/31.5% 40.4%/33.5%
Rebounds 41.5/+9.9 41.7 / +9.4
Assists 21.7 15.3
T/O/Margin 13.6/+9.1 20.9/-4.5 (ding, ding, ding)
Steals/Blk 12.5/6.0 8.6/3.8

Starters
Katherine Plouffe (6-3 F JR)14.1 ppg 7.9 rpg
Arlesia Morse (5-10 G SO) 12.1 ppg 34% 3pt
Sarina Simmons (6-1 F SR) 9.3 ppg 5.5 rpg
Brooklyn Pumroy (5-9 G FR) 8.5 ppg
Apiew Ojulu (6-3 C SO) 5.0 ppg

Subs
Katie Young (5-11 G JR) 7.5 ppg 5.5 rpg
Chelsie Butler (6-5 C SO) 5.2 ppg
Cristina Bigica (5-10 G SO)

Gabi Minix (5-9 G SO) 5.0 ppg starting guard tore ACL out for season. Had 10 assists in first game of season.

Losses – Texas A&M 64-84, Syracuse 79-92, Georgia Tech 72-76, Green B ay 46-55, Toledo 71-82m, Wisconsin 68-71
Wins – South Dakota St. 77-74 (OT), South Dakota St had beaten Georgetown 64-58.

Coming off loss to Syracuse. Decent rebounding team, but not great height, UCONN will have to work here. UCONN should be able to press them. Look for a lot of turnovers and scoring opportunities off steals. No stand out player to shut down, fairly balanced team. I imagine Faris will stay on Morse (their primary 3 pt option) and try to keep her from getting hot. Don’t see them scoring over 50. UCONN should be able to get 80+.

Located in Milwaukee, WI. Golden Eagles. Used to be Golden Warriors. Then went PC. Tyler Summit (Pat’s son) is an assistant coach. So it might feel a little like beating TN???

Minix is an Indiana girl, sad to hear she went down. I think she holds the Indiana record for 3FG in High School. I like Simmons. She's tough with a great build. But she can also get flustered and make some bad decisions.

Meyers, I was about to say thanks for the quickie, but somehow that doesn't sound right.

Get a room.

I can't imagine this being as close as 30 points, so I really don't think individual matchups are in order. Great job and it's all we need to know for this game.

Pretty good size in the starting line-up; 2 at 6'-3"...1-6'-1"

Ahhh, I'm blushing.

 

[ed4ourgirls]

I wonder if Pat will be in attendance to see her son?

. . . and perhaps exchange a few pleasantries with Geno.

 

[speedoo]

Thanks Myers.
