Hayes en fuego today. UCONN also shooting really well from 3 point land. the announcers said that 'nova has no one fast enough to keep up with Hayes. glad to see them pull away a bit. and as i say that 'nova hits another 3 pointer. 'nova was 6-23 vs. Marquette in their last game. today they are 10-23... i guess that's not THAT much of a difference, but it results in 12 points...

Nova is currently out rebounding the Huskies and the Huskies are currently 1-5 from the line.

Another open three for 'nova. Defense looks confused.

Wish Caroline had taken that wide open 3 point shot in her home town game.

62-46, under four to go

Let me be the first to say it -- Kelly can play the positions 1-5.

i wonder if stokes is back in the doghouse - i get a big matchup is not a good one vs. 'nova, but zero minutes for her? engeln in and no stokes...

 

[Wbbfan1]

Way to go Caroline, nice 3 point shot.

I was just thinking the same thing, Eric...I couldn't remember if Kiah had been in or not...I need a better TV! lol

Kelly Faris is a "do-it" all type of player. I love that kid. We need a good defensive stop, call Kelly.

72-49 final!

 

[Husky WBB Fan]

Just not many post player minutes today is my guess. Minutes for BB. KML has has some success. Finally up by 20+ although giving them a last second 3 stinks. 49-72 final Sonny

A little ugly at times, but still a nice 23 point win by the team.

 

[EricLA]

well buck and johnson in but no stokes. guess she's in the doghouse...

 

[pppggg]

Glad we got that out of our system. Need to play better Monday night!

 

[JellyBean]

Good win, UConn!! We gotta figure out ways to get Tiff going. If she plays like this, nobody can stop us. U-C-O-N-N. UConn! UConn! UConn!!!!

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!

Sure true. We can not have any ND moments. We gotta close out teams and keep that door closed.

Odd note: I could watch hoopstreams in Jamaica, but I can't listen to WTIC. How odd is THAT!

Yeah, I think you're right. Too bad - seems like after one escapes the dog house one would work really hard not be have to go back

i'll listen to the post game with Chris Dailey and see if they ask her about it. i know with 'nova playing 4 guards, it's hard to put bigs in the game, but not to get in ahead of engeln, johnson or buck...
