Texas-Old Dominion

[CamrnCrz1974]

#13 Texas trampled #20 Old Dominion, 78-44. Brittainey Raven had 20 points.

Carla Cortijo had an interesting stat line. 0 points (0-5 from the floor), 5 rebounds, 9 assists, 6 steals, and 4 turnovers.

Carla hasn't been a scorer in the first four games, but with 21 assists in the last two games...WOW!! She's such a great leader on the floor!!

You're right...interesting and incredible stats for her.

Cam, it was a great game tonight. They played much better than I expected, especially for the 3rd game in 3 days. Coach said in the after game interview that Carla doesn't need to score. Everyone knows she can - but she is so valuable because she helps others score. Of course she can score, but right now, she doesn't need to. I have no doubt she will when needed.

The team had too many turnovers tonight. They played on the edge of out of control at times, and that contributed to some turnovers. Plus, ODU is a very physical team that likes to run. Two teams who like to run can create a frenzy at times.

This team is fun fun fun to watch. They are light years ahead of where they were this time last year. I like that the WHOLE team is playing. I like that I do not have to hold my breath when the freshmen are on the floor - they are playing amazingly well. Ashley Gayle had two of the most AMAZING passes for assists tonight - simply eye popping!!!

She must have GREAT peripheral vision.

I love having Erika back. Brit is playing lights out. Kat is popping shots and fighting for rebounds. Aubry looks tough under the basket. Earnie is so tough on defense. Kristen has improved a lot since last year.

I hope more people come out to see this team - they are going to like what they see!!!

HOOK'EM!!!

It was great to see Cokie Reed at the game! Can't wait until she comes to the Erwin Center to suit up.

It would have been even more of a blowout if not for me. While I had the radio on Texas was losing and nobody but Raven could score a single point.
