NewUndFan Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Just now, Oxbow6 said: 33-30 UND at half Schiller is legit She is for sure legit. Good thing she lives in grand forks and loved UND. Or i don't believe Mal could get her. But they are beating a very good NDSU team at home. I'm coming around on these girls. Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 I think we got called for questionable fouls. Abrahim is a deal breaker making it tough for su posts we could have folded but came back strong we are not getting open three point shots Let’s keep the turnovers in check We are playing tough Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Stats show we have blocked six of their shots we are shooting 61% and they are shooting 36% - this will even out Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 To be fair - if someone for the first time saw us play that first qtr we were struggling and for a bit looked like we were going to get routed Quote
NewUndFan Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Shows what a legit point guard can do for a team. The men's team could use that. She controls everything out there. We get a new coach and another post for her, we are at the top of the league. 1 Quote
ND-fan Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 Oxbow6 UND made adjustments and Demers was trying not to get in foul trouble. UND was letting SU posts to get entry passes down low where Demers is undersized to stop SU posts now we’re making harder to get low and giving help on back side. SU was deny UND in first quarter drives but they were picking up fouls and they had to substitute other players our guards were quicker getting points on the drive. Second half a lot will depend if refs let game go or not physical SU plays much more physically which if allowed will prevent UND from scoring will be interesting how each team makes adjustments.

SiouxFan100 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Ndsu has some of the same problems we have with turnovers Quote

Schiller deserves a better coach, or she sadly needs to play elsewhere, which I would hate to see because I've been watching her play in person for years. She's a treat to watch play in person. She is far too talented to play for a coach that can't coach. 2 1 Quote
NewUndFan Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Not sure why our coach can't play our two big girls at the same time. Ibrahim has 9 blocks already 1 Quote

NDRoots4Life Posted January 25 Posted January 25 2 minutes ago, Oxbow6 said: To be blunt Demers is awful. But who do you play? Because Horne and Hurst are just as bad, worse. Ibrahim is the best they have. They need one more big girl to be inside there with her. Quote
ND-fan Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 Loss of Horne is big loss we need to help Mathern o defense. Refs starting calls .for the home team Quote
NewUndFan Posted January 25 Posted January 25 2 minutes ago, Oxbow6 said: To be blunt Demers is awful. She is not awful but she isn't great either but she is another big body to get boards. We are getting killed inside now. And Mal has a freshman trying to guard ndsu bigs. Great coaching Quote

And Mal has a freshman trying to guard ndsu bigs. Great coaching Demers is a strong bull and is effective against big bodies. Against small frame bigs on opposing teams, and Summit League refs who aren't used to physicality, her size and strength can be a "liability". Ibrahim has had some bad games this season when strength was needed against big bodies. Quote
