Texas at Stanford

[BabHorn]

43-37 Horns at the half. Empress had 10, Ariel nine and Kelsey 8 pts to lead the Horns. Brady and Brooke have five pts each, Brianna four and Nneka 2. Empress has 3 fouls, Celina, Ariel and Nneka 2 each.

Thompson has 16 of Stanford's 37 pts. Roberson has 8 while Orrange has four and Bonnie Samuelson five. The Cardinal have three players in foul trouble: Orrange has 3, Karlie Samuelson and Kailee Johnson each has two fouls.

Thought I saw Krystle but the boxscore has her as not playing. So nine players have seen the court for Texas, including all three freshmen.

Stanford has used 11 players.

 

[BabHorn]

wow, hadn't noticed. Thompson is 3-4 from the FT line. Roberson is 8-8. For Texas, Ariel is 4-4, Brady 3-5 and Brianna 2-2. Texas is 9-11 from the FT line, Stanford is 14-17.

TO's: Texas 4, Stanford 7.

 

[jusme828]

Yes, Krystle was in the game for a few minutes toward the end of the half. Orrange is probably going to come back out, so Texas needs to be aware of her. And, PLEASE guard Thompson!!

 

[BabHorn]

didn't say who that foul was on but it looked like it was on Kelsey.

 

[BabHorn]

that was definitely on Nneka. That's three on her.

 

[BabHorn]

Nneka is having a tough game so far. 3 fouls, three rebs, two pts.

 

[jusme828]

Nneka had a rough game last time too. Wonder what is up with her??

 

[BabHorn]

45-39 after Nneka scored on a feed from Brady. Easy dropstep for a layup. Stanford bringing Orrange back for a lift.

 

[BabHorn]

Thompson is back. Horns kept her in check for the first six minutes but she has five pts in a minute. But Kelsey and Nneka (coming alive) are answering. 57-50 Texas.

 

[BabHorn]

threw it away.

59-52 Texas with 11:02 to go. Stanford ball after this timeout. Nneka now has 9 pts and Kelsey is closing on a double double. She has that short jumper working. None of our leading scorers at the half have scored in the second.

 

[BabHorn]

I really like the composure of this team.

 

[BabHorn]

Nneka and Kelsey with 14 pts each.

 

[BabHorn]

Kelsey with four fouls. Texas going small.

 

[BabHorn]

getting tight, 64-60 Texas. Horns haven't answered Stanford's run. 8:06 to go. Nneka will need to stay out of foul trouble and provide the inside scoring. Our guards have not scored a point in the half.

 

[BabHorn]

good look on the inbound and we missed the layup. Foul by Horns on the other end.

 

[jusme828]

Time to get Empress, Ariel, and Kelsey back in the game. This is GO time.

 

[BabHorn]

Ariel and Brianna score. 68-63 Texas with 5:44 to go and Kelsey checking in.

 

[BabHorn]

Careless pass inside. Never made over the defender. Thompson drives, scores and has a chance to tie it with the FT. timeout first.

 

[BabHorn]

will Horns be able to overcome the ability of Stanford to get to the FT line? Stanford has made 11 more FTs than Texas.

 

[BabHorn]

2:47 to go with Texas up 73-71 after a Nneka rebound and layup off a Kelsey miss.

 

[BabHorn]

2:03, Texas with a 2pt lead and the ball.

Huge rebound by Ariel earlier to give Texas possession.

 

[BabHorn]

double whammy. Stanford hits 3 and Nneka fouls out with Stanford shooting Fts.

 

[BabHorn]

Time out. Stanford 74 Texas 73. Horns with the ball. 1:14 to go. Exciting game, though.

 

[BabHorn]

Horns turn it over. Need a stop.

 

[BabHorn]

they called a foul on Empress on the rebound. Stanford hits 1 FT. 75-73 Stanford. Texas with the ball. 7.9 seconds to go. Go the tie or the homerun?

 

[BabHorn]

OT!! Empress with the layup to tie it up!

 

[jusme828]

OT!!!!

 

[BabHorn]

Brady and Brooke hit short jumpers. Texas up 84-80. Stanford timeout, 32 seconds. Stanford with the ball.

 

[BabHorn]

[BabHorn]
