Message: [QUOTE="Huskee11, post: 4883322, member: 7171"] I was at the game and stayed for the ceremonies and player speeches. Glad I did, that was an electric moment. Student section especially, they love Paige and Paige loves them. Good crowd, close to full, and large majority stayed for the ceremonies. At the beginning of the game, they played three National Anthems - Croatia, Canada, and United States. just as they did for Dorka, twice, and for Lou. I always find that very moving. I thought the defensive intensity in the first quarter was better than at any point since the Providence game, where it was tremendous. At times a real passing clinic as well, this is a very unselfish team. Brady looks like a different player these last two games, hopefully a switch has been flipped. Some agile moves inside and her shot looks much better out of her hand, softer and more arc. Aaliyah is just too quick and skilled for anyone in the Big East. It looked like Georgetown was trying to play her straight up and that just doesn`t work. Anxious few moments when Shade went down. That looked really bad until she got up and walked off pretty well. Huge relief to see her back in the game. All in all, a fun and memorable night. [/QUOTE]
