FGCU is committing a lot of fouls. We've been in the bonus since about 4 1/2 minutes to play in the Q.
My audio is working now.

Nice to see us get to the FT line a ton in this first quarter and make them. Not sure if we are being super aggressive offensively or FGCU is playing overly aggressive defensively but keeping us in the game with our poor shooting so far.

Brink gets a foul and Betts comes in. Prechtel may be out for the game after being elbowed by South Carolina. Tara is finding personnel to guard the three--FGCU hit 4 treys in early minutes, but we have controlled them since switching personnel.

Yes, FGCU can shoot the 3 ball at all positions which is a tough matchup but they also don't have the size to matchup with us on the other end so works both ways. Only 6 paint points so far. We need to get the ball inside a little more.

We lead 21-19 after the first quarter. We shot poorly. After FGCU hit 4 treys, they did not hit another, and we went on a big run to regain the lead. FGCU has two starters in foul trouble. We, on the other hand, continue to turn the ball over. 6 turnovers in 1 quarter.

I'm pretty sure that is the most points scored against us in a quarter (19). Four made threes will do that to you.
Hey, we're 10-10 from the charity stripe!

brink will play 8 minutes in 1st half!

Our offense seems to be struggling. Relying too much on Haley. We only have 1 assist.

Announcer said Ashten wasn't fully dressed--probably still healing up after the bruising against South Carolina.

Livestats have FGCU 2 points lower than the announcer has them. I thought it was just the lag, but it is not. There is a two point disagreement.
Jones decided to end her slump. 14 points so far. She is our best offensive weapon in this game.

Haley Jones is a rebound away from a double double, in the half.

Livestats has us ahead at the half 41-37. ESPN boxscore has us ahead at the half 41-35. The announcer has it at 41-37. I wonder what the score really is.

That's pathetic. Sounds like a lot of hero ball.
Why rely on Haley who was 5 for 19 last game?
Is Brink capable of not getting into foul trouble?
Frankly, being up by 4 at the half against FGCU is unimpressive, to put it gently. 1 for 9 from deep. Poor.

Haley is shooting 7-11 (63.6%), so I wouldn't call that pathetic. However, I prefer when we move the ball around more and score with assists rather than one-on-one (or two).

Nor would or did I; I was referring to the 1 assist.
Maybe this game will prove to be the game in which Haley woke up her O and started getting aggressive and playing like an All-American.

Our three point defense improved dramatically. FGCU started 4/7 from three, then went 3/19.
With Brink and Iriafen out with fouls and Prechtel out with injury (apparently), we have gone smaller, and this seems to have helped.
Jones, Jump, and Lepolo have each played nearly the whole half, but the other 2 slots are splintered.
Brink is our 2nd most important offensive presence but only played 8 minutes.
Lepolo added some much needed offense in the half. 2/3 plus a couple of free throws.
