RU vs. UB (WNIT)

[ea_1]

Starting a game thread. Been a while since I've done that. Listening to UB radio. Pre-game, UB coach talked about having to be tactical and that UB was not going to beat RU with athleticism.

Beat me to it, not listening, just checking stats.

[ea_1]

The increased intensity from UB is getting them opportunities for baskets, but they are missing the lay-ups--too strong.

 

[ea_1]

At the half, RU up by seven, 34-27. This game outscores the Duke/SC game for first half.

Didn't realise RU ranked top 15 for OBoards this season. Oy, another turnover from RU, 10 so far for the game.

RU has size advantage, but UB playing well. Just drained a three for a one-point game: RU 43 42. Come on, RU!
