Round one of revenge weekend resulted in a knockout of Georgia Tech, 75-59. The team played with emotion and heart, the first time we have seen that since the MSU game. It was a physical game, and you could see that half the team was ready to throwdown with Georgia Tech. Now's it's on for Round 2 and a rematch with North Carolina.
Positives
Langhorne. 18 points and nine rebounds. She got the ball and took over against the smaller Yellow Jackets. She missed a few easy lay ups, but I can't complain when she is aggressive with the ball.
Coleman. Looked to be on a mission with her shots and rebounds. Her defense looked solid and she was full of fire.
Sa'de. For the first time in a long time, she looked the player we expected when she transfered from UT. She attacked the lane and used her speed to her advantage. Let's hope this is a turn in the right direction for her.
Toliver. she shot 6-of-9, eight of which were inside the arc. She has had a ton of nice passes that sometimes even surprised her teammates.
Team's aggressiveness. We went at them every chance we got including when they pressed.
Defense. We did a good job of cutting off penetration and frustrating GT all game long.
Negatives
Mental Mistakes. Several times we didn't realize the shot clock was running down and forced up bad shots.
Inbounds plays. For some reason we can never inbound the ball easily under our own basket. We had a 5-second call (I think it was a quick call) and several times looked confused.
Turnovers. A ton of mistakes that GT did nothing to create.
