I’m unconcerned about our offense. It may have been a little off, but SJU is a tough defensive team, with quick feet and quick hands. And Paige was a bit rusty. It also looked like Geno may have told Sarah to hang back a little to see what the others would do. Plus it’s clear that Geno wants to get more time in the half court offense and this was a good game for it.

One huge bright spot was Jana, who had 8 pts on 4-5 shooting and 6 rebounds in 17 minutes. This is exactly what we want to see from her. Yes, the bigs on SJU were smaller, but Gedeon is a tough customer and got away with a lot of holds against Jana, and it didn’t even slow her down.

Another bright spot is that all the various lineups played good D. The O was variable but the D was steady and solid. If you look at the score by quarters, SJU scored 10-11-10-14. At any point, if Geno had turned Paige Azzi and Sarah loose we could have had >90pts. But what would have been the point?

We will get to the final four on the strength of our defense, just like last year. It looks like the defense is coming along nicely.
