Go Cats. I like that our 3 leaders in minutes against Columbia were Rosie, Issy, and Elle. I don't know if we'll alter our starting lineup, but those three will often be our leaders in minutes. Unless we have more problems with concussions, knees, etc.

Nice start. Derek says we have 14 players available. 12 have played so far. Does anyone know which of the other 3 (Prather, Evans, Bannerman) isn't available?

9-22 with 6:06 left. Our lead could be enormous with fewer turnovers. Still looking good.

[i77cat]

Coach calls an angry timeout at 3:44 at a score of 17-27. Makes sense. This team shouldn't hit 20 points in a half. We respond with our third illegal screen. And another turnover on our next possession. I think that's 11 for the game. And other on our next possession (charge by Chloe). That's 3 straight possessions without a shot.

Finally. Tabor is fouled and makes both. 17-29. Score is 20-32 at the half.

[Bill Cobb]

Shooting well. They are not. Should be a blowout, but our 13 turnovers (4 assists) and 16 fouls are hurting us.

16 fouls in 20 minutes is one every 75 seconds. That's almost a foul every possession by the Gamecocks.

Is this game The Annette Watts Classic? She coached both schools.

Yikes. We just turned 20-34 into 32-34. When we went zone, the Gamecocks took us out of it with 2 quick 3s. Just 3 minutes gone in the 3rd.

[i77cat]

33-34. Time to play.

[i77cat]

Issy gets an old fashioned 3 point play. 33-37. Chloe 2 for 33-39. Maybe we weathered the storm.

[i77cat]

40-50 after 3.

[i77cat]

After 30 minutes, the teams have a combined 31 turnovers and 36 fouls. We don't have a 3 yet.

[i77cat]

Starting the quarter crappy. 46-50. Chloe scores, they score, we walk. Timeout us. 48-52 with 7:26 left.

[i77cat]

When it was 50-52 and they tried a 3, it was a bit scary. 50-57 now with 4:21 left. I still want a 3

[i77cat]

52-60 with 3:28 left.

[i77cat]

54-66 with 90 seconds. Got it. Nice win. Ugly, but nice.
