Had the chance to watch a replay of yesterday’s game. Here are a few quick thoughts. Did Mercyhurst exhaust their entire season’s allotment of three pointers?

 
Interesting in that after this cupcake part of the schedule the team has ten players averaging over ten minutes per game and that nine of these average over five points per game. That is balance.

Crooks is averaging a hair under 26 per game at a hair under 25 minutes per game! A point per minute! And even though she'll never be a lock down defender, her defense has improved. Yesterday, she was moving her feet well to stay in front of the player she was defending.

I know that as competition goes up some of the minutes for some will go down for some, but for whom? They all seem to be playing well.

And at this point none of our players even come close to being listed in the most minutes per game in the conference stats. Sometimes in the past our players dominated that list. I think this is good news.

I think we will see Tanke and Jensen's minutes drop to zero. LT will by spot minutes. Beyond that it's really hard to predict. Before the season I would have thought Wilson wouldn't see the floor much, but she's been playing well.

It's hard to imagine we will have a 10-player rotation, but most are playing well right now.

Not far off. They came in averaging .290 from 3, but of course hit for .364 against the Twister Sisters.

I think the F1 on Audi was the right call. She had her elbow extended parallel with the floor when she turned and made very hard contact to the face. I don't think it should be even considered for an F2, but you have to call that an F1.

And Audi knew it was because when she was over by/on the bench she repeatedly showed what she did - or rather what a safe play would have been, but on the replay you can clearly see that was nowhere near what she actually did.
