“I was really proud of our energy from the opening tip today. We were focused and disciplined defensively. We were really communicating on it our ends of the court and playing unselfishly. We got off to a quick start, Cam Gregory hit some jumpers early in transition, off drive and kicks, and some nice extra passes. We got out to an early lead and didn’t let up. A lot of girls contributed in different ways we could go up and down the roster. I think the thing I was most pleased with was offensively we had great balance and really looked for one another and gave ourselves up for one another. A lot of times when you get a bigger lead it’s easy   To get caught up in your stats and look out for yourself and we didn’t fall in that trap. The bench was engaged and gave us great minutes. It was a great all around win. Defensively I thought we controlled the tempo on both ends of the floor and the girls deserve a lot of credit beciase that was a point of emphasis for us in this matchup. This group has worked really hard and they were ready to honeyed their number was called. Aside from Cam’s hot shooting early, Lil Metrick replicated that in the third quarter. Smedley played an all around tough game aside from points, rebounds, blocks and deflections- she took multiple charges. We have brought that up a lot and I’m glad the discipline to take those hits was rewarded. Katie Purpura and Lily Bross both had strong floor games and dictated the tempo we wanted. Mia stock did a good job commanding
Space offensively  in the lane and did a really good job fundamentally on the defensive side of the ball. Ryann Szydlik  was one of our leaders  in blocks and rebounds and did a good job giving us solid bench minutes along with Metrick, Jenna Waterman, Fiona Reckner and Darcy Leight. We did some things really well and will look to improve in some areas. The biggest thing with this group, with a lot of girls getting their first real varsity experience, will be can we be consistent enough day to day to get to where we need to be. This was a good start, and our four most experienced players (Stock, Ryann & Riana Szydlik and Smedley) have done a great job keeping the group positive during some rough stretches at practice & that early season grind. We got the first one tonight, so now the challenge will be matching that energy and effort tomorrow and try to get to 2-0.
