It wasn't always pretty, but there were still lots of good things to come out of this one.

TSS 11/12 – Sisters Get It Done Versus Valparaiso

What if I told you the following prior to tonight’s game? Audi Crooks was sicker than a dog A Valpo player would score more points in this one game than she had in her three year playing care…

A much better write up then what I slid into the game thread. Lily T shined in the post tonight.

Team had pregame meal at 3 today and she didn't look sick.

So you’re doubting she puked?

No I was just saying she looked fine. Jeez

The cook poisoned her.

Sorry…the lack of contextual clues made it look different than your intent. It was late and I should have let it alone.

My thoughts in addition to the write-up, which was excellent:

Offense in the first quarter (16 pts) and defense in the 3rd quarter (20 pts given up) were not great, the rest of the game was. The 4th quarter was 30-8.

A correction - ISU had 6 turnovers, not 9. So the team had a 5:1 A:T ratio in the game

FTs were okay, Audi went 7-9, bringing her up to almost 73% on the season. Addy missed 3, but I'm not worried about her FT shooting, it was just an off day (she was 6-6 through the first 3 games).

Reagan played earlier and more than in previous games, and looked good. Having 3 quality PGs that can play in combo against the WVU-type pressing teams will be very important.

I'm not terribly worried about 3pt shooting either - Syndey, Kenzie and Arianna were a combined 16-35 (46%) coming in the game and started 0-8 before Syd hit the one late. Those are the 3 core outside shooters, and they won't all be off in the same game very often (hopefully!)

I thought the entire team looked sluggish for much of the game, maybe somewhat feeding off of Audi's lack of energy in the first quarter. Nice to win a game by 50 when you don't have your A game.

Wilson’s hard work and effort while on the court has resulted in minutes in the court. I’ve been impressed with her growth. Early on I thought she might languish on the bench, but she’s showing a lot and demanding playing time.
