UConn at Cincy game thread

LET"S GO, HUSKIES!

 

[pinotbear]

5-3 Cincy, early, Stewie with a block already - MoJet just nailed a 3, so, 6-5

Lots of blue behind the UConn bench. Mel Thomas' family, I wonder?

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Guess it's just you and me, Pinot. . .

 

[Icebear]

Just back from doing a funeral. What is going on?

Throwing the ball to Breanna Stewart a sound offensive philosophy

10-5, 15:47

 

[EasyEd]

Loved seeing Swin in the pre-game show

 

[pinotbear]

Cincy looks pretty good on D, UConn has forced a couple of TO's, which led to baskets

 

[Samanthabrown3]

UConn really hustles, don't they?

15-7, 13:40

 

[pinotbear]

two good offensive series, led to a nice jump hook from stewie, and a nice KML 3 from the corner ...and, a nice bounce pass assist from Bria to Stef. Saniya in.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Bria--two steals, scores. Moving up on the WNBA draft board. . .

Dolson, Stewie, MoJeff each with four.

21-9

 

[pinotbear]

Pair of Cincy TO's lead to a pair of Bria baskets. Cincy is shooting itself in the foot on the offensive end - their half-court D isn't bad (but, Huskies seem to be operating very cleanly so far, so, even that decent D hasn't been enough).

 

[alexrgct]

Vintage Bria so far. Like a fine wine, she's gotten better with age.

 

[pinotbear]

Kiah in. Chong for 3! BB now in. Only two UConn fouls so far, one Stewie, one KML, both pretty innocuous down low.

 

[Zorro]

Ka-chong!

 

[EricLA]

Nice to see Saniya look for her offense a bit more...

 

[pinotbear]

charge on KML takes away basket..MoJet gets a hoop on a drive .. Geno subbing frequently, unlike past two games .. 26-9, UConn

 

[Samanthabrown3]

What did Dolson do to get that foul? Looked like clean blocking to me.

 

[pap49cba]

Dolson and Stewart getting hammered in the low post with no calls. Good practice for Louisville.

The parents of Kelly Faris are here today from their home near Indianapolis #UConnwomen

Hope they show 'em!

 

[pinotbear]

More Cincy TO's, great BB to MoJet feed for hoop, two, count 'em, two Kiah blocks on the same possession, 3 for Bria: 31-9, five minutes to go in the half.

 

[reno tony]

Stokes and Banks playing well. Stokes a few blocks, Banks a couple of steals.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Jefferson with her 2nd 3 w/11 points.

 

[pinotbear]

....and, another MoJet 3 - 11 pts so far this half.

 

[Icebear]

MoJet for 3!!!
