Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 3774881, member: 6620"] - ND had been shooting 46+% from the field going into the game (upping it to 48%). - The big increase was in the three-point shooting, that was much better than usual. Having Brunelle stroke 5-9 will help that percentage. - Va. Tech may be or turn out to be mediocre but they were 6-0 heading into this game, holding their opponets to 63 ppg, while outscoring them by 20. - It was interesting in that ND purposely went after their guards, getting Cayla King and Aisha Sheppard into early and prolonged foul trouble. Georgia Amoore had three steals and hit 5 threes...I can see why Mabrey was being slotted to off-guard duty by her former VT coach. She's got a set of quick, herkey jerky moves to set herself up and a fast trigger. - Kitley was very good at setting herself up on the block. Irish center Mik Vaughn was not effective against her. Brunelle -- at 6'2" -- was not initially all that much better, but Westbeld and/or Prohaska started doubling, which helped. [/QUOTE]
