Off to a good start so far timeout FSU Cads up 12-5. Something I have noticed so far and I hope we keep it up we are doing really good on weak side help right now. Zeigler off to a hot start with 8 points early.

FSU staying within shouting distance at 27-17, because both teams are struggling with their shooting. Cards are currently 34% and FSU just 28%.

Grace Mbugua with some nice minutes here in the second quarter. Snagged a rebound and hit a 15 foot jumper.

Good finish to the half (Cards 34-20). Ziegler is halfway to a triple double (7 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists).

Mbugua looked impressive as well (4 points, 3 rebounds and a block). Biggest thing she can do to earn more minutes is hold the ball high when she rebounds it. She has a tendency to bring it down to waist level, giving smaller opponents a chance to either steal it or tie her up.

34-20 at the half we are doing great on defense and rebounding offense is a little off. We have 6’5” Grace Meguba getting some playing time and she is looking pretty good. They said she hasn’t played much because she got to Louislate and she had an injury. She is just now catching up but she really shows some promise.

My post looked like word salad I posted before I proof read it. Sometimes spell check works against you. I am just going to call Grace by her first name some of these last names like Elif’s last name is a challenge.

FSU up to 40% from 3pt line (they are one of the best 3pt shooting teams in the conference)

Grace Mbugua drills the 3pter. She has a very nice looking shot - going to be a great player for us. Cards now blasting FSU 78-49.

88-65 Cards won it in fashion starters went out midway in the 4th. The main thing this team needs to improve on is free throws. If we would have hit our free throws against Duke we would have won by 8. When we play the better teams that will make the difference in a win or a loss.
