Boston's a skilled passer so doubling could backfire. The refs don't seem to be calling much late in the tourney, so Cam can be aggressive. If she is able to score or Cam is in foul trouble, then we'll probably need to double.
I thought there was a key moment in the first minute of tonight's game when Louisville fed the post, the player turned to shoot and was blocked by Brink. Louisville's center did not challenge Brink again for 4 minutes. Brink blocked that shot too. She played all 21 minutes tonight without a single foul. Against Oklahoma State, Brink lasted until mid 2nd quarter before picking up her first foul. Contrast that with the Missouri State game when Brink got an early block, but then picked up a foul on Missouri State's next possession. 2:30 into the game, she was subbed out.
How long can Brink last on Friday (assuming she is good to go)? Watch how the officials call the game early in the 1st quarter.
