  Speaker 1: Chris Daly has joined us for the daily recap as
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: the Huskies come away with the win here tonight and
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: did what we're supposed to do, took care of business tonight.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: We did, We did.
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: I thought we played really well, did a lot of
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: good things. Obviously, Sarah and Easy stepped up. Sarah did
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: what Sarah's been doing. Easy I thought had a really
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: good game, you know, coming off trying to get back
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: into the flow of things. So I thought that was
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: really good.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked about that on Sunday.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you know, to have some of our
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: bench players play the way they did. Ali knock it
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: in threes is a big help. She's a really good trutor.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: I know I've said that before and her percentage. You know,
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: she hasn't shot the ball when she's had opportunities to.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: But tonight she really did a good job with that.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: I think you had told us all the time, so
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: when that was happening, I'm like ce d has said
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: that CD shouldn't be surprised, right.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: You've seen it.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: And I thought we did a really good job finding that,
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: you know, making the extra pass and finding open players.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: So and obviously we're there were match, so that that's obvious,
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: but there have been times, you know, do you want
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: to win because you play well or because you're just
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: better than the other team from a scale standpoint. So
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: today I thought we played well and with easy fund.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: We all know she could superb three point shooter. But
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: the way she scored a couple and one plays and
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: getting in the gap and didn't.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Seem hesitant to yeah that one on one that she's
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: talked about, she talked about.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, she scored in a lot of different ways today,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: which is big. It's helpful and I think for her
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: and I help her confidence, you know, as.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: We move forward.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Chris forty two points off turnovers tonight you took advantage
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: of made him pay for all their miscues we did.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: I thought, you know, we did a pretty good job.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: We don't work on our pressure as much as probably
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: we should. You just wanted to create a little havoc
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: and hopefully, you know, in some situations, make them, you know,
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: just throw the ball away, and we were able to
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: do that tonight.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: I always, I know Sarah strong in an offensive threat
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: and everything, but she consistently another four steals, probably had
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: another five deflections, just smoothly makes her has.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Got great feet and great hands.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: When you have that, you know, she's got quick hands
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: and uh that's and really quick feet. So that puts
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: her in position so she doesn't get as many fouls
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: as she thinks she might go in for steals. She
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: just she's she's a really good basketball player. She has
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: good instincts and really quick hands and quick feet.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Gino's compared her to Nakeisha in that department with the hands.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Okay, I know I was a different I think. I
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: guess I'm hesitant only because she does it differently. It
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: looks differently than the way Nikisha did it. She looked
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: she even although she's a better defender than Maya was,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: but she looks more like Maya.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very good.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: That's fair.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: I hope Maya's not listening. But she's a better defend
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: as a freshman, for sure. You know, no one played
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: out as hard as that all. Yeah, that might make
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: her feel better.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: The most relentless player you've ever had.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: From the second she came on as a freshman.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Yep, that's for sure.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: But yeah, so she's I guess, you know, we always
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: tease Nakisha sales it we would just put her on
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: the worst player so that then she could run around
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: and it wouldn't matter.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: If she got lost.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: And she actually said that once in a press conference.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: She said, dear coach, pusts me on the worst player.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: I'm like, Nikisha, you don't tell them. So now every
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: person you go heard is going to know that we
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: think they're the worst player. Anyway, we haven't done that
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: with Sarah.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, she defends pretty good. And you know, whether
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: it's a poster on the wing, she's a she's a tough.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: She makes ye players.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Chris, you got Georgetown coming up and two more games
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: on the road, and I would imagine you're gonna get
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you saw Georgetown. You know they're tough, they're physical,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: so Saint John. So it doesn't get it easier in
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: that department.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: No, And to you know, this is a tough stretch.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: I have four out of five games on the road,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: and January is tough in general. We're not back in
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: school yet, which I'm sure the players are happy about.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: But you know, you get into a little bit of
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: a routine and our travel has been good, so hopefully
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: we'll just be able to maintain that there's not a
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: whole lot of love loss. I don't think between US
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: and Georgetown, it's always a physical game. It's going to
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: be at the arena again, that the Mystics Arena, so
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: it should be a pretty good crowd and and you know,
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: I expect a good game.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Were you in attendance when Miss Becker's hit her half
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: court shot today? That's all over social media.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I was actually on my way out because her and Jena.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't think it was the first attempt.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: So like my my thing is, if it's the first attempt, okay,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: get excited. If it's not, then who cares? You know,
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: so fair enough, That's how I look at it. You
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: get one shot. If it goes in, great, If not, it's.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Over all right.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: We'll see on the plane Friday.
• 4:59
