UCLA's loss is shocking--more so even than our loss last year to Western Illinois. But the boxscore might provided some clues. I see that Japreece Dean fouled out and that Drummer did not play--and that for some reason UCLA agreed to play this first game as a visiting team. What a disastrous way to start their season. Both the coaches and the media selected them 6th, but they will have to play better than that to wind up in the top half.
UCLA's starting forwards were held to a total of 8 points. Onyenwere got 38 minutes as their only reliable forward. Sophomore Miller got 14 minutes and their 6'6" freshman center got 5 minutes--everyone else was a guard--so they played 4 guards for half the time.
Anyone know what happened to Drummer? As Bob said in his preview, UCLA needs to be injury free to have a successful year. If Drummer is out for some reason they may have some real difficulties.
Is 6'6" Shayley Harris expected to be good? That is an eye-popping height. And this was her first college game....
