Down 22-18, 8:08 left in 2nd, Issy has 3 fouls.

[i77cat]

26-26 at 4:15 media timeout. Elle is hot. If we can stay +/- 3, I like our chances in the second half.

[i77cat]

Up 34-35 at the half. Chloe had our final 5 points.

Charlie has 11, Elle 8. We're being outrebounded 16-10.

One of Duquesne's stars is Meghan McConnell. Her uncle Tommy played for Davidson from '80-'82.

A mystery is why we didn't go all in to recruit her brother TJ, who transferred in the middle of his college career when that was rare.

TJ plays in the NBA now.

[i77cat]

42-37 at 5:17 of 3rd. We don't look good. Excellent crowd.

[i77cat]

42-42. Elle has 13.

[i77cat]

Up 45-47 after 3.

[citycat]

The refs are inclined to call fouls. If we'd work the ball inside to whoever Townsend is guarding, we might draw her 4th foul.

Elle with 16 now.

[i77cat]

Elle has 16, Charlie 11. Issy is our only player in foil trouble and she's still at 3. Rebounds are now 26-20, so we didn't lose any ground that quarter.

[i77cat]

Down 52-49. Need a spark.

[citycat]

We can't stay with them one on one. Townsend, who still has 3 fouls, is having her best scoring game of the year.

Two of their players have scored their 1000th career points today.

We should win the A10's congeniality award for the week.

[i77cat]

Tough loss. 64-57, 60 seconds, their ball.

[citycat]

We should have fouled them when they ran 30 seconds off the clock and heaved a shot at the buzzer.

Like our men's team, our women can't stop a quick guard.

If we really will have 15 scholarships next year, I hope some of those new scholarships are used for quick defenders.
