I was looking for somewhere to post this comment. THIS looks like as good a place as any. Two thoughts as we close the door on 2022, and pop the cork on 2023.
1. DePaul's
Aneesah Morrow has become a "one man band" for the Blue Demons. She scored 33 points on
36 FGA (14/36), along with 10 rebounds. No other Blue Demon teammate had double digit FGA's. [
Box Score] Ponder this for a day or two.......how many points would Lou or Azzi score if they were allowed to put up thirty-six shots?
Nykesha Sales' UConn team record of 46 points in a single game that has stood since 1998, would fall......quickly and by a lot.
2. Tonight, DePaul fell to Creighton who UConn just defeated on Wednesday 72-47. UConn held Creighton to below 50 points using only 7 players.
Tonight Creighton scored a 92-82 victory over DePaul. All 5 starters for Creighton scored in double figures. Only three players (Karlen, La Chapell and Marotta) scored in double figuers Wednesday.
UConn was able to throw a blanket over the Blue Jays and completely stiffle them with their "Magnificant 7." Are we giving our team enough credit here?
Thoughts......
