Towson/ODU thread

Recommended Posts

End of the quarter down 20-17. Still no Kornegay-Lucas for whatever reason. Gary and Kubek have played well. Not much from anyone else.

Kubek has 12 points and six rebounds. Nelson has just 2 and is 0-5 from the field. She's getting very few good looks, if any from the perimeter.

Mariah Adams hits a three-pointer at the buzzer over Nelson to give ODU a 34-31 halftime lead. Not a bad showing by Towson overall. ODU is better, more physical and more athletic. Maybe that's why Kornegay-Lucas is not effective because she can't bully her way to the basket against them. Of course, you'd like to see them shoot better than 32.8% from the field. A lot of that is due to tough man-to-man D by the Monarchs. Towson needs to move the ball better and make the extra pass, something that ODU did the entire half.

Ok, didn't realize ODU was missing three key players, though Iggy Allen is the best player on the floor. Maybe a bit more energy and intensity in the second half. The disappointment of the Delaware loss may still be felt.

It might be time to step away from this one if Towson doesn't start to show up. Down 38-31 to start the third quarter. Coach Rich called a quick timeout after a minute. Tucker needs to stop turning it over. Honestly, she hasn't been the same player since she injured her ankle weeks ago. But that has nothing to do with throwing an errant pass.

44-40 ODU. Towson's defense has been ok, but they've left Allen open too many times. She has 16 points and has 4 threes on six attempts. At least Nelson is now 5 of 14 with five assists. Would like to see her dish more off penetration because she's drawing the defense to her. Team is hanging in there. If Kornegay-Lucas can turn it up a few notches, they can win this.

Towson getting destroyed her down 11. Next season, they need another post player and they need more unselfish play. Too much one-on-one. ODU is making so many great passes out of the post, high post or low post. Just the extra pass had helped them extend the lead. Nelson takes a lot of shots. I know they want her to shoot, but she has the ball in her hands all the time. Sometimes nobody touches the ball, esp the post players for several possessions. Now down 57-49 with 17.5 secs left in the third quarter.

Now down 60-56. These Tigers do not give up. 6:17 left. Kubek a nice post up. Gary a big 3. Have to get stops and rebounds. Tucker is out so not sure about her physical issues. Instead of sitting on the bench, she went to the bike.
