  Speaker 1: We'll get to the rest of the highlights in just
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: a moment, because look at this sweater dazzling you guys
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: brought your a game today. Chris Daly, the associate coach
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: of the Huskies, has joined us here court side. First off,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Happy new year, Happy new year to you. And what
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: balance today? Scoring the basketball? That and the defense was
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: very good once again.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think going in they average over seventy and we,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: you know, wanted to help hold them under sixty. And
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I thought our defense was good, turned them over twenty
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: one times, and we only had five turnovers ourselves. So
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: we were getting shots. Need to work on the rebounding part.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: We got out rebounded, which isn't good.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: But you know we uh, we did a lot of
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: good things.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: One of those good things the Spike getting out rebound
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: fourteen to four second chance points today.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: That's not bad in the seat and the final I only.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: See I don't see that we got a rebounded by nine.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: I didn't look at it that way.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: But and the five turnovers a season low by the way.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I knew we were taking care of the ball.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: We were getting shots. We weren't getting a whole lot
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: off or rebound where we're getting the first shot. So
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: I just think as you're trying to get better as
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: a team, you really have to win those battles, especially
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: on the road, especially against the more competitive teams that
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: we're going to play, maybe just any against any team,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: really you have to win those battles.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: You know, we were twelve for twelve from the free
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: throw line, so that.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Was good season high there too.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we you know, so there were some real positives.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: We just have to be smarter, I think, and that
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: really has to start, you know, in the new year.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: You know, that has to be something that we really
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: focus on. We're not going to get bigger, we're not
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: going to get quicker, but we need to focus on
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: being a little bit smarter as a team.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: KK Arnold certainly brought the energy today.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Huh she did.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I think it started yesterday in practice. She really played well.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: And you know, homecomings for kids can go two different ways.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: You know, sometimes they can be so geared up that
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: they don't play as well. But in KK situation today,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: she certainly played well. Gave us a lift off the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: bench and was just up to and was able to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: create some havoc on the offensive end. Putting the ball
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: on the floor and get into the basket.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: What'd you see from Jenna that you like today in
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the post? Seems like she's gaining a little more confidence.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I know it's still a very much work in progress,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: but baby steps, I guess, huh.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, Jenna is her own worst enemy in
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: some situations because we work hard every day at not
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: dribbling the ball in the lane. When you do your
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: work early and you're already that deep, you don't have
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: to dribble the ball.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: And she started off the game doing that.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: So that that gets her frustrated too, because then those
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: become you know, non shots or there were then chance
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: of taking a shot that's contested. But you know she's
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: going to get better. It's almost like she's like a
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: sometimes a little bit of a baby deer, like a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: dough you know, where they don't where their body is
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: not exactly connected to everything that they're trying to do.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: And I don't know if that's because she's trying to
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: go too fast, but she hangs with it, and you know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: her attitude is good, so she just has to keep getting.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Better, just keep grinding at it. Right, what is it now?
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: This stretch here, a lot of road games coming up
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: here for this team here, but ant to the bell
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and now it's off the Villanova.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: But home first.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well we go home.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Originally we had thought about making it a road trip,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: but we end up going home, which is much better
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I think for everybody.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: And then we'll go down to Villanova. We've got a bunch.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: I think they said eleven in the next so many game,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I forget what that.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: I think it's like four to the next five, starting
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: with today. I mean, obviously we're home next Wednesday, and
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: then we've got at Georgetown at Saint John's.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: It's a stretch, and you know, they're not easy places
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: to play, and you know there's I don't know what
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: the final is, but Providence was beating Saint John's at
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: home at Providence, and so there are no easy games
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: on the road. When you're playing in your league, you know,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: it's it's funny, it doesn't even matter. Sometimes it's just matchups.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's history. Sometimes it's some I don't know what
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: it could be, but when you're in your conference, anything
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: can happen. So you really you have to try to
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: control what you control and win all your home games,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: and then you really have to win on the road
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: if you want to win the championship.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: M that's always the case. Happy New Year, Happy New Year.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: If we were doing this again on Sunday
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I hope so all right, all right, thank you, you
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: bet
