Well, against Oklahoma, Paige took 27 shots. I didn't look it up, but I have to guess that's the most shots she's taken in any game this season. Part of it was no one else besides Ash was hitting. Sarah and Azzi were both slumping. So not only did Paige take over, but the team continuously set screens to get her open - Jana was the best at it IMHO. She constantly set screens at the top of the key, Paige curled around it, and shot a wide open jumper. This worked over and over. Jana's offense was non-existent, but her screens were great. It shows that the team can win a lot of different ways. Sure we had 4 players in double figures, but Azzi, Sarah, and Ash only had between 10-12 each. That's one reason we only had 19 assists on 32 made baskets. Bottom line, win however we can. Against Oklahoma, the rest of the team had plenty of chances to contribute scoring-wise, but Azzi and Sarah were ice cold. That's really why we were down 4 at the half. We had good shots, they just didn't fall. Nerves? Being tired from the trip west? No idea. I do hope the rest of the team steps up, especially Sarah and Azzi, but you only need to win by 1 to advance. Of course, it will be easier on my nerves if it's by more than that! [/QUOTE]
