12 points on 4-5 shooting to go with 3 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal. Those are Dangerous stats.

I tell you what, DePaul is not going to win this one, but they'll give a lot of teams trouble with the way they play, sort of like Syracuse a couple years ago when they made it to the national championship game.

Fun game to watch.

 

[BigBird]

One of the best halves I can remember... These kids are playing a team game on both ends. Azurá is really finding her role.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Danger just buries 2 straight 3's and Geno gives her grief about passing when she should have shot leading to a 3 second call. Got to love it

That 3-second call was Collier's fault. She had an open shot from about 12 and dumped it into Stevens who was surrounded.

Does Lou look okay? Looks kinda red, like she has a sun burn (which I know is unlikely).

I think she's played every minute so far. Don't forget she's played one full game this season and two full college games in 8 1/2 months.

 

[oldude]

We have 5 players in double figures. At the half.

and 21 assists

She's working hard. We all get flushed when we work hard.

 

[BigBird]

I wonder if we’ll get a glimpse of Batouly on the floor tonight...

I'm glad LaChina Robinson is one of the sportscasters

La China's a class act!

 

[Sonny44]

Do you think they might put someone on Danger?

No, that was Danger at the top of the key with the open look for 3

DePaul is trying to trap the ball, so someone is always open, and the Huskies are better than any team in WBB at getting the ball to the open player.

 

[TitleTown]

I would like to see Williams score a little bit in the second half. I think her confidence is shaken a little bit right now and would like to see her get back to being the aggressive player we all know she is.

FS1 half time not even commenting on the game.

We will get some crumbs towards the end I guess.

Then we're talking about different 3-second calls.

I think you're right

True but her arms looked really, really red too, which I don't remember seeing on her before. (BTW, that's my tribute to Geno.)

They just couldn’t wait to yap about some mens’ games that haven’t been played yet. Pathetic.

 

[hugefan]

So much fun. I saw that Gabby glimmer with the full court pass and Z get that ish outta here

 

[HuskyNan]

I'm guessing she's still getting into game shape after sitting on the bench for a bunch of games

 

[Husky fanatic]

Z joins volleyball team. 3 spikes so far

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Lou really skied (skyed?) for an O board in 2d quarter - she's full of adrenaline or feeling good about ankle or both ... or Z ain't taking my job!

 

[BigBird]

UConn assists on 21 of 24 field goals... both amazing and about average for this team...

 

[Sonny44]

Katie Lou playing well; no sign of injury, but let's not push her to hard yet.

 

[eebmg]

I am not a big fan of DePaul's style of taking such fast 3 pt shots even if only half open. It goes against my sensibilities. Still, our team is handling it pretty well and I think the defense will be ratcheted up in the second half. By the way, does Depaul do the hockey line substitutions in other games or just against us?

 

[Kaizen]

I want Megan to play more time ...

 

[Hayven]

Z joins volleyball team. 3 spikes so far

She’d fit in with the Stanford Women’s Vball team

Whoo....DePaul is changing their line-up like crazy. UConn came to play tonight, 5 players in double figures already. Azura is a blocking and scoring machine. Nobody can stop her, they tripled teamed Azura, and she still scored. I am loving this game.

Was I the only one to see Jasmine Lister on the sidelines, the first timeout?
