Tara: "I was saying the same thing!"
Jones: "Ya, we're like this" (looking at Tara with a smile and crossing her fingers.)
Jones went on to say that Lepolo hitting her shot will open up the lanes for Brink and Iriafen and bodes well for Pac 12 play. Clearly the other players and the coaches have been trying to bring Leplo's offense along and felt that this was the breakthrough game for that.
I had not realized the extent that this is Haley's team. Behind that smiling face is someone with a lot of knowledge about basketball who is telling her teammates what to do, and they do it.
