Cain's best overall game.  She played tough and aggressive. She's arriving on the B1G scene

 

Sam was excellent...played faster and controlled the offense. 

 

Just super defense and hit the boards. Mershon, Cain, Bourne...well .....everyone was on a mission to rebound.

 

Hannah's 3's ....kept Minn off balance and frustrated. ......Seems as though the plan was to let Sam be the PG and Hannah the shooter......good move coach

 

One of the better games executed by an Amy team...love it !!

To sound redundant, very good game overall by the ladies and great effort given.  Cain and Whitish played really well tonight- having an effective inside/outside game made a big difference.  Bottle that ladies and take it to every game going forward.  Great bounce-back game after a very disappointing loss earlier in the week.  GO BIG RED!!!  😍 🏀

I missed the game due to J-O-B interference.  To bad cause it sounds like they played well.  They must have played particularly well on defence cause I expected Minny to score in the 70's.  We should get another nice rpi boost out this.  The season has really just begun, but 2-1 is a reasonable start.

Who names their child "Klarke"?

 

"Yeah, my name is 'Clark,' but that's spelled with two K's and an E."

 

That must get damned old.

Has anyone found Whalens post game comments?

 

From McKewon story: “Cain – she’s really, really good down there,” Minnesota coach Lindsay Whalen said.

Nothing from Minnesota AD site's story.

I got a chance to watch the ladies v minn in person yesterday. Was a great game. My thoughts: 1) it was very well officiated 2) we competed harder than we have all season 3) we have a chance to be really good if we always compete that hard and stay healthy 4) Leigha’s defense has improved a lot since last year 5) verbeek’s shot selection has improved a lot since last year and she worked hard to make herself way more atheltic 6) Sam likely will  never be a pure shooter but her shot is better this year and makes her a perimeter threat which prevents teams from sagging which makes her more dangerous as a driver 7) Kate has probably lost 20-25 lbs since last year and is moving way better and can play more minutes without being exhausted. She was a beast yesterday. Cudos to her 8 ) we had a great crowd yesterday 9) trinity could be a huge piece for us in the coming years and could fill nicea and Cincore’s roll as our wing lock down defender but she needs to commit to getting herself in shape and losing some weight like Cain and verbeek have.  She would be way more atheltic 15-20lbs lighter.  But she has great natural feel for the game defensively and probably more offensive tools than jas and nicea did at the same age

I also noticed Brown’s improvement on the defensive end and it seems that the past two games she is putting a lot more effort into defense, which could be part of the reason her shots aren’t falling.  I think the concussion protocol is why Trinity isn’t quite in game shape yet.
