This is an area that coaches talk about on many occasions about defense is an area that freshman struggle with at first. Many never had to play tough defense in high school but now it is very important that they do. They will get better or they will see less time on the floor so we will see who steps their defense up.

I can't seem to tie your comment to the post you quoted. Can you kindly spell it out for me?

Interesting take - I had a conflict and didn't see it live - I pulled it up last night and let it run while I was doing other things, so I wasn't paying "close" attention. I thought Emily was frequently out of position, late arriving and wasn't she the one who fouled the three-point shooter for a four-point play? I wouldn't give her a free pass for her passive play on D...
On a positive note, Bristow looked good again - for multiple reasons, not the least of which is retaining her services going forward, we need to find more PT for the young lady!
I know that Bill likes to show loyalty to upperclassmen but there is absolutely no reason diew should be playing more mins than joens or bristow. I hope diew comes out if it soon but right now she is absolutely killing us on both ends of the court.
I wasn't intending to give her a free pass. The defense across the board was horrendous, I would have much rather seen them go to a switching man than that weak zone.
Also that 4 point foul call was weak. She flew by and the shooter dropped her hand to initiate contact. Yes she made contact but I hate those weak calls where the defender is clearing and the shooter moves their leg or arm into the defender to create contact.
