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.
against beginning defense good half hit offense played second shots zone
We hit some shots against their zone in the first half and played pretty good defense the whole game, but our offense struggled, beginning in the second quarter.
good guards half picked played scoring second struggled
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.
ball feels foul good turn
It feels good to get a win. We didn't turn the ball over. We didn't get in foul trouble.
emotion good played score tough
I think Jeffers was just overwhelmed by the emotion of the evening. I've been on the other end of that and it isn't much fun. Jeffers is a pretty good team, much better than the score would indicate. If we played like that every night, we'd be pretty tough to beat.
ball defend handle hard turned zone
It's hard to defend that. We didn't handle their 1-3-1 zone and turned the ball over too many times.
gave harder options scoring shut
Their scoring gave us other options than Lindsey, so it was harder for them to shut her down.
beat boards
They were a little more efficient. They beat us on the boards pretty bad, 29-18.
rally second shot
They shot rally well in the second half.
bit few half missed played quite shots struggled throughout
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.
mark shoot simon
That's not like Simon to shoot like he did. But all of us were off the mark in this game.
ball defense handle kept nights offense scoring
Our defense has kept us in games. When we handle the ball and we're scoring regularly, we're competitive with pretty much everybody. But on those nights when the offense is kind of struggled, then it's tough.
fantastic fourth game picked run sleep sort three
We made a fantastic run in the fourth quarter. We sort of sleep-walked through three quarters, but picked up our game in the fourth.
behind heads kept played second since time
It's been a long time since we won. We got behind at halftime, but played much, much better in the second half. We still had our lulls, but we kept our heads up.
