Leathernecks @ NDSU 2/8 SHAC 5 pm

You could argue that the Leathernecks are the best team in the Summit and I wouldn't disagree. Not expecting a miracle here but the ladies need to defend the 3 better this time around. Go Bison!

well anything less than giving up 110 points is a victory

Taylor with four 3's. Bison 25 - Leathernecks 25. End of 1st quarter.

Bison trail 34-32 at the half. They really need to cut down on the turnovers and make some shots. They just seem over anxious on the offensive end and keep making stupid mistakes. Long bounce passes or lobbed out of reach. Not sure who's worse the freshmen or upper class players.

34-32 at half.
12 Bison TO's.
WIU is #1 in steals. Bison are #1 in TO's.
Bison have a good chance to win tonight if they hold down the turnovers.
Go Bison!

Every game gets away from them in the third. It's been a consistent pattern. TO's are killing them just careless with the ball and lazy passes. Team has no fire or leadership.

Expected, which is a shame in its self. WIU returns everyone next season

I would agree. They seem to run out of gas at this point in the game. On the flip side, the Leathernecks are a very good team.

Our defense improved by 30 points but our offense regressed by 20 points.

And from a 29 point loss to a 27 point loss. Improvements abound. Even better we play Fort Wayne next. Maybe the worst team in the country.

I did watch the game as I driving down in time for the mens game. Just looking at stats from the game. We only had 2 steals compared to their 13. Turnovers we had 22 they had 5. Second chance points 7 NDSU , Western 21. Points off Turnovers was 2 NDSU and 19 WIU. Our 3 point shooting took a dive in the second half. It seems to me the ladies get tired and then not focused as they should be. A lazy pass here, a poor box out there and shots falling short and there goes the game. I wonder if we would be better suited to just slow the entire game down and not try and run. Make the other team play defense. Yes we can not turn the ball over. Even if you could cut turnovers down by 1/2 and make 1/2 of those extra possession would give us 10 more points. Now play better defense and create of few more steal and we would turn that into more possessions. There is another 2-6 points. Finish the close shots or better a few more offensive rebounds and there is another 5-10 points. Now we are in the game and maybe just maybe can close out with a win. I just think the ladies get tired and all fundamentals start to slide and boom game over. Slow the game down. Make it a rock fight instead of a track meet.
