Week 1!!! 11/3-11/9

One game I'd like to see is Oklahoma v Belmont at 5:30, but not sure we get SEC+. It will be interesting to see Chavez play at the college level.
Looking in on this game. Belmont made it a two point game near the end of the 3rd quarter. Chavez is having a good game and she looks like she is ready for the college game with 12 points scored early in the 4th.
An interesting fact, Raegan Beers' sister is on Belmont. She hasn't played yet.
Current score 68-60 Sooners, six minutes left in the game.

yeah, good defense was what caused the atrocious shooting....I saw far too many open shots miss iron altogether or hit the front of the rim. Neither team looked good and only worthy of 18-25 type rankings at best. But to be fair, it is the first day of a long season so they have to improve.
Sure, ignore the fact I said it was a combination of both. Atrocious shooting aside, keeping Fournier to 5/15 in the paint when she typically has a field day is good defence. Both teams created turnovers through drawing offensive charges, shot clock and 5 second violations. Baylor won the battle on the boards, especially on the defensive side. Snark away. I stand by my opinion.
 
Beers up to 27 on 12-15 shooting. Meanwhile Chavez is 5-18 and 1-8 behind the arc. That's a lot of shots to get to 14 points. Verlhurst has 11 on 9 attempts.

It's only 1 game, but the Sooners have talent other than Chavez. They really don't need her being a high volume inefficient scorer.
 
Oklahoma St. has hung 62 at the half on New Orleans. Don't know anything about UNO, but at least they are D1. Timmer, the transfer from South Dakota St., is going off and Whiting that came over from BYU is stat sheet stuffing.
 
Loyola, Maryland only trailed the Maryland Terps 18-11 after Q1. Shoulda quit there. Only scored 15 more points the rest of the way and lost 80-26.
 
Figures. Fr. Brynn McGaughy for Washington has been getting quite a bit of hype. Not doing a whole lot so far in her debut, but unheralded Australian Fr. Sienna Harvey has 15 thru 3 quarters. Avery Howell having a nice first game as a Husky. UW cruising, just about has Seattle U. doubled up. Last year's leading scorer Elle Ladine is not in uniform, haven't heard any kind of official report about her.

It’s exactly why she went there.
 
I was watching Chavez and was thinking “oh, that’s why Dawn and Geno didn’t recruit her.”

I know that’s not really fair. But I was thinking that after a few of her shots.
 
Washington did what they should against Seattle U., easy 90-43 win. 21 for Sellers, 18 for Howell, 15 for Harvey.
 
Arizona state is in an absolute war with Coppin State.
I know good things are expected there w/ Molly Miller. She's pretty much starting from scratch though. Rebuilt roster. I looked the other day, I think there were 3 returning players or something like that.
 
The Molly Miller era begins. CTT is smiling and the energy is back to Desert Financial. Passion enthusiasm and most of all defense with a huge D. 4000 in the house. Amazing electricity all night.

Take aways

Trademark Miller D.18 steals, 90 feet, constant in your face swarming defense

Former Reb Brackens was all that

10 in the first quarter and clutch down the stretch Washenitz was the leading scorer.

There is a winning culture in Tempe again!

The curtain of distraction was 8-13 in the second half

The Devils lack a point guard



In other news Don Staley called off the dogs but Winston Grandy received the anticipated beatdown in South Carolina.

The Jacks traveled to the Pit and got mauled.

And the kitties, ahhhhh. They open at home on the 5th and, get this play their first 12 at McKale!

I'll drive down to the dirty t on the 21st to see them play the Jacks.
 
It's pretty hard to keep track of where all the transfers end up w/ more than 1000 every year. Still...I didn't realize Breya Cunningham ended up at Texas. Or Teya Sidberry. Horns beat Incarnate Word 123-51. Kim Mulkey and Brenda Frese approve of this score.

South Carolina was on Chavez's final list of schools.
 
Kiki Rice coming off the bench for UCLA tonight? That's a bit of an eye brow raiser.
I agree. IDK if it's cuz she had an injury during the summer or what. At the same time I kinda like it. it kinda shows how deep UCLA is. If she started they wouldn't really have a backup point guard, and lastly CLW could very well be the better player at this point. I thought CLW looked great. Jaquez started slow but she looked good. I thought the team showed glimpses.
