Did the wheels fall off this year? I haven't followed since a month or longer and we seemed to be destined for tourney and top 25... I see were under 500 in big.

What did I miss?

9-17 Wisconsin is leading the Knights 17-9 after 1. No need to panic, cause the Badgers are a bad team and RU will start hitting shots !!!

We couldn't create a play for a while there last 5 minutes of the third,

But WOWOWOWOWOW

Cathleen Fitzpatrick my dear, you can shoot from those two corners of the arc any day.


It's unfortunate we can't create more inside plays for our shooters. The team fights on though

what a sequence defensively and offensively.

Huge start to the 4th

Edit: side note; I have no idea how those 1's became Scarlet. Is it an omen?

Huuuuuuge defensive move by Stasha and pressure by Fitzpatrick


Stasha makes up for her horrible layup with a great breakaway off the steal

my feed lagged out during the long delay, anyone have a sequence of what happened during play and the delay?
Looked like Fitz had ball after whistle. Wisky player had hands straight up and kept walking directly into Fitz snarkly. Scaife got in her face and then a little yelling and it got broken up. Tech on Wisc for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Very good win as I expected. We dominated Wisconsin in the second half as we should. But what is still concerning is getting off to such slow starts. Who knows but maybe Stringer should play aggressive defense in the first quarter. Make a basket and immediately go into the 55. That way I think our women won't have to think and can just relax and play basketball. Something has to be done. Will all else being equal there is no reason we should be starting so slowly nearly every game we play.

Again, it was an expected win, but a nice win. One down and two to go. We need to sweep these next two games and win at least one possibly two games in the B1G tournament and we should be dancing.

Can someone tell me why we don't see Fitzpatrick more out there? Tonight she made three three's and those shots were very important in our come back. We really need someone to stick it out there. I know Nigia and Ciani can stick a three every now and then, but I'd like to see more of Fitzpatrick out there.

I haven't seen many games, but my impression - it could be wrong and I'm certainly willing to be corrected - is that she pretty much hasn't done much shooting when she has been in and doesn't contribute anything special if she isn't draining 3's.

i would agree. She does play her heart out playing defense and doesn't hurt you by making bad decisions / turnovers. Other than last night, her shooting has been inconsistent. Maybe the Wisconsin game will get her rolling.
