Interesting coincidence... The winners of the 4 games played today starting about 4 PM PDT all scored 72 points.
I was not satisfied with the 2nd half tonight. I don't think Stanford just dangled a bait of 19 points out in front of them just to make them suffer. I think we couldn't pull away, and wound up tied. I remember that at 7 minutes into the second half, it was just 8-6 our favor. Were we equally matched except for a 20-point scouting bonus that we spent in the first half?  Granted, we obviously slowed it down, and I was glad to see us holding the ball, and hence the lead. But it seemed the O sisters were out of the offense.
Congrats to the team for just 6 TO against a defensive team!  (If you saw the UConn score, you may be surprised to find out they had 16 turnovers to KSU's 18) Amber: 5 assists / 0 turnovers
But WVU got 35% of their offensive rebound chances. We got just 26%.
Our two-point shot % dropped from 55% to 40% in the second. Our three-point shot % went from 50% to 0%. (I'll forgive Nneka for taking the 3ptrs. I'm sure that's part of the Griner plan.)
WVU only had 13 turnovers, but we got 19 points off them.
