UConn-Duke- the game, the thread!

[alexrgct]

LET'S GO HUSKIES!!!

Opening commentary- Pam Ward and Rebecca Lobo. I'll take it!

Okay guys...can't watch ESPN3 from Cancun, and the local ESPN2 is only showing WVU vs. Pitt except in spanish. So I am relying on you to keep a good running commentary of the game action and score!

 

[VAMike23]

Dolson with a couple nice jumpers, and a good box out on EW

wow chelsea gray with a long bomb

5-4 duke 2 UCONN fouls so far, 1 on Stef one on Bria(?)

 

[VAMike23]

UCONN did a little zone a few minutes ago but now back to M2M

 

[alexrgct]

Stef with six quick points!

 

[VAMike23]

Great look by Doty down into Dolson in the lane, 6-5 UCONN

Now Gray answers with ANOTHER 3, 8-6 Dookies

 

[alexrgct]

Why are we letting Gray get wide open?

 

[alexrgct]

. Two fouls on Dolson after a moving screen. Just a horrible mental error.

 

[VAMike23]

Stef with a moving screen. Stef can't take the bait even if the guard doesn't do their job. Stef sits.

 

[alexrgct]

Tiff with a nice drive and-one!

8-8 with a foul shot to go after the media timeout.

 

[VAMike23]

Tiff takes it strong and gets the bucket, oppt for an +1

 

[wire chief]

Tiff to go to the line after successful drive

Duke is much improved from last year. Having a point guard hides a lot of flaws. We need Bria to get going.

Is this the first game where Kiah has gotten in before KML?

 

[alexrgct]

Duke's D is better than last year's, but still pregnable.

I'm not sure that we need to make an adjustment on Gray or just stick to the defensive gameplan. I have to imagine she was part of it...

 

[VAMike23]

KML in

9-8 UCONN

 

[sarals24]

There she is. I bet she is chomping at the bit to show she's worth that #1 recruit status.

 

[UConnChapette]

Wifi here stinks. Very, very slow to update. Interesting, though. All the ads on The Boneyard are in Spanish.

Keep up the commentary though. It is the only way I can "watch" the game!!

 

[sarals24]

Tiff is so good at taking charges.

 

[VAMike23]

Tiff steps to the baseline to draw the charge, and succeeds (by a smidgeon)

 

[alexrgct]

Way to bait Duke into a charge there by Tiff.

 

[sarals24]

GREAT PLAY Kelly Faris. Kiah needs to get on the floor!

 

[alexrgct]

If we can start hitting these open shots, Duke can't stay with us. If we don't, we can lose this.

 

[sarals24]

Five turnovers for Duke already.

 

[VAMike23]

KML clanks her first jumper still 9-8, UCONN ball on a EW travel call at the other end 14:25

 

[VAMike23]

Bria with an aggressive take off the break , gets the bucket, 13-8
