GFU did put up a great fight. Looked like nerves rattled both those teams in the 2nd half. GFU missed 3 point blank layups that would have changed the game. GFU point guard had a great game (Four 3 pointers and heady ball control). Phillana and Snikkers came through when Hope needed them.
HPU took better advantage of the height mismatch and this game was never really in doubt. Rarick and Burke are great shooters for DS, but HPU rarely gave them an open look.
Phillana may give Meia fits tomorrow as she played great defense tonight.
Without (#5 Koepke?) coming off the bench to disrupt things, it seems that Hope is still adapting to changing roles. I assume that Koepke was the girl on crutches tonight. I get the feeling that the Brownwood fans that came early didn't see the real Lady Dutch tonight.
HPU, on the other hand seems to be healthy and has everyone understanding their roles. A coach knows how important it is to have a player already know she's fixing to go in even before the coach looks her way.
#1 vs. #2 . Both teams are final 4 worthy. We can complain all we want about the brackets, but you play em' as they come. Please don't let it come down to a questionable official's call. Finish it
