I think the staff held verbeek out just as a precaution because she was shooting shots during warm-ups and didn't look like she was hurting too bad

Halftime Stats:
Lady Huskers (& Leigh Brown) pull out to a double digit lead.

First Sighting of the Season of Trinity Brady who has several Defensive Stops.

Hope we pull away in the 3rd quarter.  I'd like to see Brady and Helms get some extra minutes.

Listening it seems to be a rather uninspired effort.

Well coach has been on a couple of players so far this half

Guess you must not be listening to Matt & Jeff!   

 

EDIT:  But then again, Matt & Jeff always seem to be  'excited.'  (Team may be uninspired, but Matt & Jeff aren't )

I am, and Matt has actually been critical.

[Bugeaters1]

Let's hope that Brady and help with the rebounding issues with the wide body that she has.

Might be some hangover from finals week.   Energy level might be a bit low.

[Red Don]

Matt & Jeff have also been very complimentary of the play of Leigh Brown (three treys) and Trinity Brady's Defensive Play!

My BTN+ feed seems unusually jerkey this game. Has anyone else experienced this (or is it just my internet connection )

My feed seems OK.

Short leash by coach on Haiby.  Team took off again, when Brown replaced her.

[redsteve]

Don't look too bad to me...Manhattan is playing tight defense.....we're hitting 3s...and NU now leads by almost 20.

 

Is this the Duke board now....?   :)

 

 

^^^^^^^

 

OK ...take that back....SLOPPY play now ...by both teams

And...you all probaby know... Cain's dad is the all time leading scorer for Manhattan's men's team

Thanks!   Seems like it might be my 'AirPlay' connection to the TV.  Seems like it slows down (or 'stutters' )the faster the action.   IPad screen seems to be OK!

Maybe it's your governor doing it.
