WSU lost at home to Cal on Friday, 59-66.  That was despite their freshman phenom Villa scoring 17.  WSU has lost several games recently by relatively close margins.  They are hurting, and would like nothing better than to turn things around against us.

In her post-game press conference, Kamie Ethridge discussed "A T" (Astera Tuhina), their 5'9" sophomore guard from Kosova that she clearly thinks needs to be more at the center of their offense.  But AT was injured for 6 weeks and is just getting back in the flow of basketball.  It was fortunate that she came back as CLW was injured, but AT was 0/5 in 25 minutes against Cal.  If she had been just a bit more productive, WSU would have won their game. 

"They just guarded us, 1 on 1, better, and nothing we did got us an advantage on the offensive end."

I really wonder if we will play WSU again after this game.  If we were fortunate to win, we would close out the series 74-0.

Another horrible first quarter.  The opponent guards Jump and double teams both Brink and Iriafen and dares Lepolo to shoot.  They know that if she misses a couple she will stop shooting so they don't have to guard her.
