JMU's Play4Kay game today was against UNC-Wilmington. Karen Barefoot's Seahawks came into a sea of pink shirts and a team that was loaded for bear, not birds, playing for freshman G Kiki Jefferson's mom who is a breast cancer patient and who was in the stands today right behind the team bench. The Dukes beat up on the Seahawks, 76-52, with Kiki leading the team in scoring with 19 and doing a bunch of other things that just don't show up on the scoreboard. This kid is for real!

It was a crazy day - Marquette spent a lot of the day looking like they had no idea how to run a play to inbound the ball and struggled to do so repeatedly even getting called for a 10 second violation once on their way to 22 turnovers. But their shooting performance and good defense helped offset those issues and they easily beat Butler 76-54 (well and 21 assists didn't hurt either). Before Friday's games, Butler was 1/2 game in front of Marquette in 2nd place in the Big East. Now Marquette is 1.5 games ahead of Butler and alone in 2nd place at 11-4. They move to 20-6 overall and that's now 4 straight seasons with at least 20 wins - this sure wasn't anything I expected coming into this season.
DePaul continued rolling along easily defeating Xavier to move to 14-1 in the BE and clinching at least a share of the Big East regular season title for the 6th time in 7 years (last year Marquette won the regular season title outright and that was the only year since realignment that DePaul hasn't at least shared the regular season title). They should clinch the title outright soon as they do that with a win or Marquette loss. Their next game is at Georgetown - one of the worst teams in the Big East.
One surprising result in the BE today - Providence comes from behind to beat St. John's by one point - 54-53. St. John's has lost a lot of close games this year and sit in 7th place for now. Teams want to avoid 7th place in order to get a bye on the first day of the BE Tournament.

In SEC action 25th ranked Tennessee loses to #16 Texas A&M in a tight game 73-71. The Lady Vols can place the blame on a bad 2nd Quarter, where the Aggies out-scored them 24-15. The Vols either tied or out-scored the Aggies in every other period. Chennedy Carter led the Aggies with 37 pts, and was 14-16 from the FT line . Now lets see how loyal those AP Pollsters are to the Lady Vols..... |
The Lady Vols can place the blame fully on their horrible FT shooting, missed layups, and throwing the ball away at crucial movements. |
I watched part of this. I know Carter is really good at creating her own shot, but I still don't understand how defenses let her do this much. Put two players on her, front and back, don't let her get the ball, if she does get it collapse. For goodness sake, force her to pass and make someone else beat you. It's frustrating when the refs give her the call every time she bangs into someone, but still...you gotta do better than this to have a chance. Tenn has the tall and athletic defenders that 'should' be able to be more effective than this. And yeah, add that to what LVfan says and you have a catastrophe. I mean, even with all that, it was still a close game.
I would use a triangle and two, with the two on her...and the triangle protecting the paint from drives. A&M, other than her, aren't very good at shooting the three. As much as I like Kelly, this is on her. She has to be able to give her team something that works.
