We were right there with them, we just didn't do the little things that would have got us the win. We missed 11 free throws and that was the difference.
Defensively, we did what we needed to do to stay in the game. We held a very potent offense to 46 points and really neutralized their ability to knock down 3s.
We have video of each time this has happened and we can tell it's the same man. And he also now has accomplices he's brought in.
We put up a good fight in the first half, but their size really gave us fits in the second half. They got the ball inside and rebounded well.
I was proud of our effort for three quarters. Unfortunately, we didn't finish the fourth quarter well. Our inexperience showed a little down the stretch; we play a tough schedule and right now are battling some injuries to key players.
The girls really stepped up in Leanne's absence. They cut the lead to seven late in the third quarter and hung around the entire contest. The game was a lot better than the final score looks.
When you're stealing from Goodwill, you're also stealing from the people we're trying to put into the workforce.
This was a great game by both teams, our pretty good defense against their pretty good offense. Their coach told me after the game it was a shame we couldn't have met at a neutral site (further along in the playoffs).
It was nice having everyone healthy and on the floor together. I could see the girls were anxious to play together after we battled injuries the last couple of weeks.
