The Kibitizer Memorial BadAss Award

[Tonyc]

Caroline and Liv

 

[KY Card Fan]

ONO. She can play for my team any day, any time.

 

[EricLA]

Liv worked her ass off. With the rest of the team on life support, Liv was really the main bright spot. Nice effort by Caroline except for dismal 3 point shooting.

 

[Blueballer]

Liv hands down

Caroline and Liv

Did anyone else even suit up?

 

[oldude]

Against a team with legitimate size, Liv was brilliant today. 17 points on 7/9 shooting. She led the team with 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks & 2 steals.

Caroline and Liv

CD 1 for 8 from 3 with 5 turnovers? You're generous.

 

[pk1234]

Liv in a landslide, but again worth noting that Caroline had 24 points against a really, really good team and didn't even play her best.

Not sure if anyone else was even there.

 

[pk1234]

CD 1 for 8 from 3 with 5 turnovers? You're generous.

If she had 24 points against an elite defensive team six weeks ago she would have gotten unanimous praise.

 

[dtbtbtb]

ONO! she did a lot for her WNBA prospects with this game

Even with the poor 3 point shooting I think CD has proven she can put points on the board even against a quality opponent. Until Paige gets back we can’t say that about too many others,

 

[hoopingcrane]

Liv. But why not more shots.

 

[mbr33ct]

Liv. But why not more shots.

The ball needed to get to her.

 

[pk1234]

Liv. But why not more shots.

Because nobody's a good enough passer to get her the ball when she's open.

 

[PAHuskeyFan]

If she had 24 points against an elite defensive team six weeks ago she would have gotten unanimous praise.

Agree... and let's not forget, Caroline played all 40 minutes, she was the only one who seemed willing to shoot it from 3 and a lot of her shots were quick release while being contested. And...she's a Freshman... 24 points in a game like this by a Freshman is pretty solid. IMHO

 

[kjkj3]

Olivia gets my vote. Plus scoring her 1,000th point. Too bad most of her teammates really forgot how to play basketball.

 

[Brewski]

Olivia gets my vote. BTW, I think Caroline had 22 points, not 24. I agree with PAHuskeyFan, almost all her 3 point shots were contested. She had virtually no help getting open shots, but Oregon's 3-point shooters seemed pretty open for the most part.

CD 1 for 8 from 3 with 5 turnovers? You're generous.

She did happen to score 22 points on 10 of 21 overall. That's generally cause for some praise.

 

[CL82]

Leading scorer at 22 points. And for a long stretch of time she seem like the only husky who was willing to shoot.

 

[Majic Hands]

For the last 3 years and into this year Olivia had never impressed me.

In the last couple games I've seen Olivia working hard. Tonight. . . Damn! I may be becoming one of her fan. Olivia did avoid contact. She went for it

Tonight is the first time I've seen her as a BadAss.

 

[LwrcasefaN]

CD 1 for 8 from 3 with 5 turnovers? You're generous.

She is a Freshman playing on the road. Logging long minutes. Handling the ball more than usual. I also thought the refs let a lot of grabbing go without blowing the whistle...especially in the paint. Speaking of paint....I'm not sure I could play on the floor without vomiting.

 

[Majic Hands]

Caroline. B a d a s s! I bet the next time she plays against the Ducks most of her 3's are going to splash.

She's a "freshman". A freshman that I've been hearing will be lucky to get off the end of the bench. Get used to seeing a lot of this young lady. No one on this squad has more talent, hart, determination to be on the floor than Caroline.

This board needs another one of Tony's optimistic posts.
