Lepolo started but played less than 1 half of the game (only got 37.5% of available minutes, fewer than two subs). Somfai started but only played 40% of available minutes. Eschmeyer came off the bench, but played 70% of available minutes, which might be a season high for her. Swain started and played 90% of available minutes. For all the Strum und Drang about MAS, she was only in for 10% of the game, the fewest minutes of anyone who saw any action.
We can’t play players 40 minutes a game (though we pushed Ogden, Agara, and Swain to 35 minutes). I know we criticize our own team for playing 4 on 5, but Duke had two players who combined for 51 minutes and produced 4 points on 2/15 shooting.

Excellent points all around. I’ll just add that we missed way too many bunny shots under the hoop. Time to practice layups?
Been a fan of Eschmeyer since her first appearance. Her game (esp D) has improved massively. Reminds me of Kiki.
