  Speaker 1: Chris Daly wearing the national flag blue outfit tonight. Very snazzy.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: I like, and I like the bracelets too. What isn't
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: about this place? I mean, so dog on a fishing
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: offensively the last two games, it's been fun to watch.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Well, it's nice to be back in gamble, you know,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: it's nice to be back and having the students back,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: and you know, the crowd has been great, and we're
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: just in a good place right now. I think we've
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: kind of honed in on some some certain offenses that
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: we're running more and I think we're becoming more comfortable
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: with that. And I think our defense has been really good.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I think we've had some really good practices. We've locked
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: in on the Scantner report and how we want to
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: play and what we need to do, and we've we've
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: really executed well.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Speaking of office, the first couple of possessions, getting a
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: lot of a back door where they're you know, coming,
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: looks like it's a design play and usually you think
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: a team would take it away, but you were getting
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: a couple layups right there to start off, and even
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: in the second half, so it seems that players just
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: know where to look, where to pass and you're getting
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: people open.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: We're a better team when we're moving, you know, like
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: when we're getting ball movement, we're getting people movement, when
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: we're changing sides of the floor, when we're getting hard cuts,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: because even if the person who cuts hard doesn't get
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: the ball, they're dragging people with them and that gets
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: open shots for other people. So the more we work
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: as one and the more we're against people movement, ball movement,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: we're really tough to guard.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Nice to see Caitlin Chen get going offensively tonight.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she played great. She you know, I think coming
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: in as a fifth year or a grad student, it's
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: really hard to try to figure out your place and
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: your role and not wanting to upset the apple cart
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: in some ways. And she comes from a place where
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: she scored a lot of points last year and she
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: doesn't have to do that this year for us to win,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: but she can do that and it helps us when
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: she does so, it gives us another weapon. And she
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: just played really well and played with a lot of confidence.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: It seemed to quite a few times two man ball,
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: so to speak, where the side of the floor it
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: was Paige and Sarah Strong working really well together. On
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: that screen role, whether it's the curl or dumping down lid.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: They worked really well together.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: They've had good chemistry from the second we started playing,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: so it's just continuing to get better and better. And
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: they both can pass the ball really well. I mean
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a couple of the passes Sarah made, I thought Morgan
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Shelley had a great pass day and the little bounce
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: passed down. Yes, so we were really unselfish. We had,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: you know, twenty six assists on forty you know buckets.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: So but you know, you have to be able to
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: take advantage of your strengths, and certainly Paige and Sarah
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: are two of our strengths and when we can get
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: them going and playing well, and Page just was really
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: she played really really well today. She just did a
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: lot of different things. She didn't pass up shots. She
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: you know, took the appropriate shot at the appropriate time,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: whether it's you know, a wonderable pull up. You know,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: she she gave, she took what they gave, and she
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: was aggressive in getting what she wanted.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: So yeah, and she still had nine assists, yes, yes.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Talk about that.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: That's it, you know, the having the big board now right,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Otherwise nobody probably would have known, but having it up there,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I think more people knew and she was aware of it.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: But she said, you know, when you're playing well and
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: you're doing you know, you're doing a lot of things.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: And I said, okay, so I guess the is it converse?
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: The converse would be true. So when you're not playing
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: well and you're not doing all those things, you know
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: that too. So I'm not really sure about that, But
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: that's that.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Line in what twenty five twenty six minutes of play.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: I mean that talk about and not that, Yeah, she
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: played twenty something like that.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I think you have always spoke to that about her efficiency.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: I think you you.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Know, and even three for three from the others her
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: free throws, see she missed her free throw again.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Well, you guys got to line a lot in the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: first half. I figured, hey, we smashed the season high
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: for free throws.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: It took a second half.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, style the game, style, Yeah, the game, sure,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: And you know, to their credit, I don't think they quit.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: I don't think they stop. I think we made it
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: difficult on them, and you know, they had a couple
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: of runs and then we had to you know, we
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: had to clamp down a little bit, but overall, I
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: don't know that they could have done much else based
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: on how we played. You know, we didn't leave the
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: door open for them to you know, kind of get
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: back in the game or even start the game off quickly,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: because that's the thing with a team like Villanova. If
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: you can get a lead early, it's hard for them
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: to then get back into the game.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: I think that's what we were talking. There's villain.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: They do some nice things. They were shooting the ball, decent,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: everything they were doing. I think you just have a
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: tendency to make a decent team not look good just
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: because the way you're playing. I think you were able to.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: And sometimes those shots go in after the you know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: after the game has already been decided. A lot of
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the you know their shots because I think six or
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: thirteen that's better than five for seventeen. I mean, I
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: think one of them shot five for seventeen in the
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: first game. There might have been number twenty five, I'm
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: not sure. But so I think we had to work
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: really hard on Maddie Webber, She's a good player. In Jasmine,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: the freshman Basco, we worked really hard at trying to
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: make things tough and they made some tough shots, So
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: you have to live with that.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: All right, onto Omaha. Big East lead at stake and
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I don't treat it. And we're playing in the Big House.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Yes supposedly. I heard today that they have ten thousand
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: tickets out for our game.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And that's a double and that's a double header.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Not really a doubleheader. It's like they play at twelve.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: They emptied the building. Yeah, get and that's why we
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: can't tickets for No, they don't get tickets for both,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: which I mean, it's hard now when you can draw
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: as a women's game ten thousand people, if those ten
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: thousand people wouldn't get in the building if it was
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: a doubleheader with the men, because if they have season
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: ticket holders, you know that it just becomes more problematic.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: But we're looking forward to we've never played in the
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Big Arena, although it is Scheduling is a problem because
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: their men play at noon, so their men have to practice.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: We won't even get onto the court until that day,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the day before we're going. But we're not getting there
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: in time, but they have practice. It's the morning. We
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: can't shoot there. It's just a little bit of a mask.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: But we'll make it work. It'll make it work. That's
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: where you're ukon, right, Yes, we'll make it work.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: As Chris Daily leading that she knows how to make
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: make it.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: We will make it work.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 6:31
