Second half thread 32-26 UConn at the half.

[uconnbaseball]

Stef now with 3 fouls... We need her inside... Stay cool Stef

No need to panic until she gets 4. She has defended well tonight; I don't want her softening up on the Ogwumike sisters.

Stupid foul by Bria

 

[CTyankee]

She makes up for it with a steal and a layup

 

[VAMike23]

Bria with an effort steal, and sprints out front !!

Now Stef with a MONSTER block!!! And then a jump??? Lucky for Nneka not to get her 4th

 

[Icebear]

51-42 We have done a good job weathering Stanford's early surges and then wore them down.

 

[Dairyair]

Man, Stef is battling HARD!

 

[VAMike23]

KML still cold this half....

Kiah with a nice block !!! How did we lose that possession? Thougth Kiah saved it in

 

[Icebear]

4 fouls on Nneka. Get her out of there.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Stanford has taken WAY too many long 2's. That's the worst shot in basketball, especially for a team like Stanford that doesn't shoot that well.

 

[CTyankee]

Another foul on Nnemekda

 

[speedoo]

You can tell I haven't seen the team this year until tonight. I'm a crank from the men's board.

We can tell.

 

[VAMike23]

KML with a cagey/sly effort on that rebound, got her arms wrapped up with Nneka and then went to the floor -- would have to see the replay but I bet that was all KML making that happen

 

[CTyankee]

Leaving her in with 8 to go

 

[Icebear]

52-44 UConn

 

[uconnbaseball]

Finally! Could be a dagger.

 

[Dairyair]

DOTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Icebear]

Doty for 33333333!!!!

 

[VAMike23]

DOTYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Icebear]

55-44 UConn into double figure lead.

 

[CTyankee]

Now up 11... Cardinal has to take a TO... Doty drains a 3

 

[uconnbaseball]

We can tell.

How polite

 

[Icebear]

Nice spot up by Caroline.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Now we're out-rebounding them--33 to 31.

Lousy shooting percentage for both teams. Stanford 37%, UConn 36%.

 

[VAMike23]

Wow , nice soft fadeaway J from Nneka with Kiah on her tight , now Nneka with a D board.

KIAH WITH A BLOCK now !!!!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Now we're out-rebounding them--33 to 31.

Simply awesome defense and rebounding. Geno has coached a great game.
