Just from the box score, Swain was the high scorer with 18 points on 50% shooting; Ijiwoye was right there with her, with 16 points and 4 threes. Tuhy grabbed 15(!) rebounds. Starting lineup was Swain, Ijiwoye, Sotelo, Tuhy, and Eschmeyer. De Vries did not start but played 11 minutes, without scoring (0/4 from he field).

I watched this afternoon's game from the lower level for the first time, since my wife and I gave up our long-time season tickets this year.
Here are my takes on the game:
o Swain makes some mistakes, but it is usually from her effort to get to the basket. My co-favorite player because she has so many skills. Looked like our best player to me today.
o Tuhy was a surprise to me. She made a three-pointer to end a quarter, taken about 10 feet behind the half court line. One hand. Swish! She only scored those three points. But she was an outstanding rebounder, a good defender, able to pass and fun to watch. My new co-favorite, at least for now. She looked like a very intelligent player.
o Shay shot really well. If that keeps up, she certainly deserves to start. Always fun to watch her defense.
o Eshmeyer was good offensively and defensively as expected.
o Sotelo Miguez looked up and down, but mostly up. Some nice hustle layups off some good feeds.
o Looked like our problem will be a big drop off from the bench rotation (de Vries, Ezieke, Umeh, maybe Gilliard). That will likely show up more and more as we play better teams. Ngenda just played the last few minutes, but seemed to be able to dribble with her head up, pass and shoot a bit. I didn't notice her on defense one way or the other, though. Would like to see more of her to see if she can be third point guard.
I'd be interested to see some posts from anyone else who saw this exhibition game today.
