I don't know why we came out so flat at the start. It might have been the 4 o'clock start time. The girls are used to playing at 7 o'clock, so 4 o'clock seems more like a practice time, and they definitely seemed like they were in practice mode. They snapped out of it, though. Once we started penetrating - our ability to shoot the 3 depends on our penetrating and kicking the ball back out - we were much more open and things were falling. |
I thought that this was the first game that we played this year where we showed our potential. |
The third quarter was a rough quarter, but Troy is one of the best-coached teams that we play. They never quit. An 11-point lead at halftime is nothing to them. |
