Red Don

Whether it was selfishness, tired legs, 'end of shot clock' attempts, or all three, we didn't see any of the dazzling basketball movement in the 2nd half that we saw demonstrated in the first. That we saw it at all is encouraging; the team Can play that way, and are being coached that way. It seems that we did have a number of 'Good' looks on our FG's and Treys, seems like None of them went in; MSU's did. Its difficult to point to any particular call that official's made to change the outcome of the game, but it did seem one-sided throughout, both halfs. The cumulative effect on the team may well have helped affect the outcome.

WELP!!! Final Stats:

Paul Szelc; didn't he start his career out as a Janitor, like 'tv' Teddy Valentine did?

We need some more of that dazzling Ball Movement for points in the paint we saw in the 1st Half.

Box Score: https://huskers.com/sports/womens-basketball/stats/2022-23/northwestern/boxscore/21862 Attendance: 6,232!!! (not as high as for the Iowa Game, a record, but quite respectable @ > 5,000)

It is still undecided by Issie and Jaz as to whether they will return for another year. Both are eligible for another season. Like you, whether they decide to return for another 'Go at It' or not, I suspect may come down to whether they feel they have some 'unfinished business' yet to accomplish.

Husker Ladies WIN!!! 80-64

NW Thugs!

Let's Put this team Away!

Stats at the end of 3 Qtrs:

Moriarity is a very Good Player!

Per Matt; Coaches decision, but said expects her to play her regular complement of minutes, just not starting. (Edit: Per Matt: "for a very minor reason. we're told.")

Tied @ 30 All as we go into Halftime!! Not a particularly good quarter for the Husker ladies. Not a good Technical picked up by Coach Amy Williams to allow NW the opportunity to Tie the game. Halftime Stats:

What ARE the Refs Looking AT Mendelson was fouled the entire time During that Shot. NW player had her arm Wrapped around Mendelson's Middle.
