We played a pretty good first half, but struggled in the second. Their guards picked up their scoring in the second half and couldn't keep pace.
storm stretch weather
We were able to weather the storm and stretch it out to 10 or 12 points.
double figures five guys score three tough
They had three in double figures and two more with seven, so they've got five guys who can score and that's tough to defend.

That's not like Simon to shoot like he did. But all of us were off the mark in this game.

Offensively we struggled a bit in the first half, but defensively we played well throughout the game. We missed quite a few shots in the first half we should have made.
rally second shot
They shot rally well in the second half.
felt growing guy learning pains simon somewhat store
I would say it's been a learning process. We were somewhat inexperienced when we started the year. Simon Store was really the only guy back with a lot of experience, so I kind of felt there would be come growing pains and there have been.

Ouch. Up until then, I thought we had competed. But when things went wrong, we hung our heads and kind of gave up the ship.

He would drive and dish off and they'd hit the shots.

He's come a long way over the year. It's really noticeable when he's in the game and when he's not for us, defensively and offensively, because we've really come to rely on him for a lot of things.

He had it thrust upon him this year and has gotten better at it. He's done a better job on the nights we've given him a little bit of help.

He did a great job on both ends of the floor. Danny Blake knew the double-team was coming all night long and he handled it well.
credit good played
At times we can play well and at other times not so well. Tonight, we didn't play very well. But credit Ewen, they played very good basketball, especially in the first half.
gave harder options scoring shut
Their scoring gave us other options than Lindsey, so it was harder for them to shut her down.
