  Speaker 1: Well. On the daily Recap, we present Chris Daily, the
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Yukon associate head coach. Overall, CD was the coaching staff
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: satisfy what the afferture team gave.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Well, it's nice to have the opportunity to play, yeah,
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: and been here before so in the new arena, renovated arena,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: and then just against a different opponent. Clearly they were
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: out matched from a talent physical standpoint, but you know,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: we still got a chance to see some different things,
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: like we turned the ball over a little bit too much.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: We're working continue to work on our pressure and it's
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: just good to see it in a different environment.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: You had a bad shooting first half against BC last
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: week from three point range, two for seventeen, but the
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: threes were going early on and asy Thud really got
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you off on the right phot early, didn't she.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're a good shooting team. So we felt like
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: against BC it was just maybe just an off day
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: because and I knew it was going to happen because
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I watched the warm up and we made every three,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: so I kind of called that one. But we're a
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: good shooting team and that's why the turnovers impact you,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: because we want to get a shot at every possession,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: and we have a pretty good chance for a shot
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: fifty percent half of them are going to go in,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: so we don't want to give the ball away, but
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: get open shots for our best shooters. We have a
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: strong post presence as well, and we have the inside
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: outside game that I think is going to help us.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Speaking of that strong post presence, get a double double
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: today from Sarah Strong, But I was really impressed that
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: all the little things she did on the floor to
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: make everybody else better.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: She's been that way since she walked on campus. I
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: think she's a threat to have a triple double every night.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: She's unselfish, she can get shots. She's shooting the three.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: In fact, today I thought she missed more shots than
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: I've seen or miss You know, it's almost unusual to
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: have her miss as many as she.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Did, four for eleven, a thirty six to zero run
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: late first half, second half. Anytime you get a long
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: run like that, it starts with a defense. What did
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: you like about the way the defense played this afternoon?
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, we were able to put a lot
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: of pressure on them, and again, as I said, they
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: were overmatched, but we did a good job getting in
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: the passing lanes and we're still learning, you know, how
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: we want to do the pressure and what it has
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to look like and who goes where. So that was helpful,
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: just the aggressiveness, like we really have to stay aggressive
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: if we're going to press.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Southern's first hope of the game was a layup, and
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: it almost seemed like their game plan today as that
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I think will be all year long is get the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: ball inside. So they kind of made you work in
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: the lane a little bit defensively early on.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought against Boston College we did not do
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: a great job of keeping people in front of us,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: and so we've worked a lot on that and that's
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: one of the things I think it's going to be
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a point of emphasis for us throughout the years, just
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: to keep people out of the lane, you know, don't
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: don't give them opportunities to go bias and then make
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: have dumb fouls. You know, you don't want dumb fouls.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: And then we have enough, you know, I think we
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: have enough size that we should be able to battle
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: post players and trying to keep them out of lane
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: and get them off the spot that they want and
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: just really make them score over us. And then box
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: out and run the floor.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: So, Chris, you've got a little over a week now
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: before the opener against Louisville down at the Naval Academy.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: What goes on the blackboard? What are the coaching staff's
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: priorities as far as what you've got to clean up
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: fix up before the regular season begins.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Well, there's a lot, because there's a lot we haven't
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: put in yet. You know, we haven't worked on a
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: lot of things defensively. That's why you know, when you
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: come into these games, you want to do the things
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: that you have practiced and spend a lot of time on.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: You want to do those well. And we did that
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: for the most part, and now we have to build
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: on that, add some things to be more ready next Tuesday.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: We're not going to be ready in November fourth to
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: play a good team like Louisville, but hopefully they're not
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: as ready as they're going to be down the road
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: as well. Either.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Great analysis as always
