St. Louis game thread
First of all congratulations to Bradshaw, Giacone and Whalen on senior day hopefully a happy ceremony after the game. As for this game, STL hasn't lost since losing in OT to the Flyers in January. Why the five game winning streak??
Harbison averaging 21 ppg 46% fg and 28-32 at the line
Kent averaging 17 ppg with 16 three's
Flowers averaging 10 pts and 10 rebounds a game
Defensively you have to cover outside but have to protect the inside. Key for UD keeping Magassa on the court - I'd start her today.
Both point guards struggle at the line Bradshaw at 58% and Martinez for STL at 50% though she has 48 assists and only 14 turnovers.
Whalen had 21 points in the first meeting and she'll need to be hot again from three point land and as Chris aptly pointed out, catch and shoot don't try to drive the paint and hoist up over Flowers or Smith Traore.

Terrible first quarter. Up by 12-8, but missed 8 shots at the end of the quarter. We are 2-11 on two point shots, mostly point blank.

Jenna just terrible in the first half 1-9 and not playing well on d. As a team we missed a ton of shots, shooting only 26%. St. L has put in a few prayers including the one at the buzzer to go up 2.

If we shoot better we win, because we are the better team on D and rebounding. We are 6-22 on two point shots and they are 9-19. Magassa continues her struggle making point blank shots.

Bradshaw takes some bad shots, but that one a while ago was the worst I have seen in college basketball. She drives the lane from the left side past the rim and throws the ball over her head with two hands not looking... sheesh!

We have taken 53 shots to their 39 and trail by a point. Offensive rebounds are 18-3, but only 13 second chance points. Can we make layups?

Probably 15 missed point blank 3ft layups left out there. Some of them one right after another on the same possession. Won't beat anyone when leaving routine 30pts off the scoreboard. We generated all the good looks we wanted despite the zone.
These are the kinds of games that turn off general CBB fans to the women's game. SLU needs to put a Thank You card in the mail.

When you shoot 30% you deserve to lose. Giacone with a bad first half and worse in the second, 3-16 shooting. Magassa dominated the boards with 19 rebounds in 28 minutes, but 3-14 on layups.
