Teejer1, that's a good point about Pretchel I hadn't considered.  Pretchel had a bad game.  I thought part of it might be the lack of minutes to get into a rhythm.   But it could also be a lack of confidence or her perceiving Tara having a lack of confidence in her to be a starter or get major playing minutes.  It has to be a little humbling to watch a freshman, Brink, take away so much of her playing time.

I'm not going to make any long term conclusion from this game but hopefully Pretchel plays better in the next couple of games.
