We are down 29-36 at halftime. We are ice cold from long range: 2/13. Brit and Bri both have 2 fouls and Carrington has logged in minutes and contributed a 3. However, we look sluggish and lost on offense.
Erica is the hot hand in the first half going 6/9, but she has little help. Smith is 1/6, McPhee is 1/4 and Karlie is 2/7.
Defensively, Texas has started gaining confidence and despite holding Holmes to limited minutes and 1/5 shooting, she came in the end of the quarter and participated in a 7-0 run to end the half and give the Longhorns a 7 point advantage.
As I warned before the game, we need to make shots. We cannot afford to go cold in the game. Texas is too good offensively and has too many weapons for us to rely solely on our defense to win this game.
It's a bad sign for us when McCarty and Holmes, arguably their two best players only have 11 combined points, yet they are up by 7. Sutton is 2/2 from long range and Caron-Goudreau is 4/6.
We can't wait until the 4th quarter to rally. Tara needs to work her magic at halftime.
