We lead 17-12 after one quarter. Even though KSU drained their first two baskets, our defense has gotten off to a much better start and the bonus is that we got their star post Lewis in foul trouble. She has 2 entering the second. Marta made a big mistake by going under a screen and letting their star guard get open for a three, but besides that, we've been playing better defense.
Offensively, it seems like when we are able to go on a fast break off a KSU mistake with Marta making aggressive moves to the basket, then we are successful. However, our half-court offense is still sputtering with already one shot clock violation and a couple turnovers.
However, Smith scored on an and-one right after she entered and even though she missed two long range shots, you can tell she's trying to be more aggressive. McPhee also drained a 3-pointer which was nice to see.
Fingall has already entered the game while Karlie unfortunately, but expectedly has been covered very closely and has not been able to take a shot yet.
