The Kibitzer memorial Badass award

Senior day!!! Liv & Christyn clearly aren’t ready for their college careers to come to an end. It was close. But Liv gets my vote, playing perhaps the best Big Game in her college career.
 
Luv and CW…. But these girls played some great D after the first quarter. Azzi kept them afloat in the first quarter. AE hit those boards like crazy. And Paige was pretty close to Paige

There were 4 double digit scorers. I could make a case for 9 players. There were 4 in stats that made a difference. But there were 9 that put their shoulders together and won this easily lose-able game. This was a #3 team, not a push over.

In the words of The Kibitzer, BA, does not mean the player of the game, which I would say that was Liv. The KMBA in my opinion was Aaliyah, she took no prisoners when it came to the boards and going after loose balls. On one play she went to the floor for a loose ball while two Indiana players also went for it. The officials called a jump ball and it went to Indiana. After the play Rebecca was talking about one of the Hoosiers using her feet during the tie-up. I thought that was illegal using your feet, because last year they had called Nika for kicking the ball while doing the exact same thing.

Thanks for reminding folk that bad assery is not the same as player of the game or filler of the stat sheet. I think that your phrase "took no prisoners" is a great shorthand.
 
me. i should get it.
somewhere around the beginning of 2q, i started woofing at the iu bench and coach, 'u only got 3! how u gonna beat 9!' after a bit, a few heads started to spin around cuz i was relentless. u only got 3! today ain't ur day!
after a halftime break, where apparently every Bridgeport baller ever could be seen milling aboot (ok, that wuz cool, lot's of 'u ain't dead yet?' or 'i see that ur little cuz is tearing it up at Bassick' and such. friendly reminder- one of the very first girls hs all star tourney is called 'the schoolgirl classic,' from Bridgeport.)
3q kicks off. cw brought the handle bigtime, and we start in with 'u can't guard her! watch out! watch out! she's gonna break ur ankles! there she goes ....buckets!' over and over and over.... now, lot's of cranky bench heads spinning.
in a flash, it was like us by 20. game over. a good time was had by all, except mebbe that gendarme who kept looking at us. he never said anything. i bet we're related, or mebbe he had family in our group. Bridgeport is like that, and cw owned the locals. paige's crew looked like they all came from Darien or Avon, or wherever Trader Joes has a store.
cw smiled at us. a good time was had by all.

I'm with those of you who feel Liv was the best player for the Huskies today. She rose to the occasion, and it was a beautiful thing to see. Still, it would be ignoring history to deny the numerous big games she has not played well during her career.

That said, let's all rally behind her (and Aaliyah and hopefully Dorka) as they face the potential gauntlet of Cunane, Brink (and her backups) and Boston & Co. Overcoming all of those rivals would be a tall order, literally, but how cool would it be?
 
Nika! We were barely hanging on till she came into the game then we took off. She doesnt have a lot of stats but she gets everyone fired up. Besides, shes my favorite player .

Rebecca was laughing herself silly on that play. “She used to be a soccer player, and it shows.”
