119-50 final. 51 bench points.

 

[MilfordHusky]

53- 10 2nd half
Re bench points We are going to see this all season
Ira

Yeah, the bench has future HOFers on it.

And if Bria had played ....

 

[UCONNfan1]

7 blocks for Stokes. 119-50 final score... tale of 2 halves...

 

[Phil]

I like to hold teams to 50. They hit 50 with 4:30 to go, so I thought that was not gonna happen, but it did

 

[UCONNfan1]

Oh, relax

I'm very relaxed. I was replying to your incorrect but snide remark.

61-12 2nd half
Ira Guessing he waited till the half

 

[Phil]

If anyone is wondering, that's not a points record. We out up 126 against Providence, holding them to 48 in 1998

 

[pap49cba]

35 assts. on 43 hoops.

 

[VAMike23]

You know how they always say to take the ball into the body of a shot blocker?

With Kiah, not so much.

 

[RadyLady]

and now....the season starts!

 

[UCONNfan1]

58-38 in the first half
61-12 in the 2nd half...

I'd be very curious to know what was said at half time and what the team specifically worked on or did differently to have such a different result defensively in the 2nd half. I think some of it was that HF just wore down, and obviously their 3 point shots weren't falling in the 2nd half. It seemed to my armchair QB eye that the defensive rotation was better, the help defense was better, and Kiah and Bree had much more impact in the 2nd half defensively.

That stat 35 assts on 43 baskets certainly is Huskie BB

was that the Jim Jabbar "fetal position" game?

 

[pap49cba]

7 different players (out of 10) scored from 3. (And Bria's in reserve.)

 

[speedoo]

Not too shabby....

Final 35 A on 43 FG. Damn good.

You could tweet Geno...

 

[UCONNfan1]

You could tweet Geno...

Think he'd reply? lol

 

[magical2]

I will call Geno at home and ask him
Ira

 

[RadyLady]

Think he'd reply? lol

Not if he reads this thread...

Kidding. I really don't know. I know he textx, I just don't recall whether he tweets.
I don't tweet. I am not a Rockin' Robin.

 

[semper]

Maybe he'll give a clue or two in the presser. Will there be a presser?

It's all good. I usually post more on the guys side where it's much more rough and tumble. I keep forgetting that it's all around more PG rated on this side while the men's side is more R rated - not so much in the language, but in the blunt statements and criticisms and observations.

 

[magical2]

I don't know how to tweet! Just learned a month ago how to text
I think if he tweeted probably he has someone do it for him Chris D
Part of her job lol

wow - that was a quiet 15 for Dolson

 

[UCONNfan1]

Agreed. I swear I only saw her score 4. She did have 4 fouls too, and at least 1 or 2 of them were those goofy ones she shouldn't generally commit...
