Tuned in partway into the second period up 25-24 and as of this comment, I have yet to see the Aces score a point after hitting 25.
They might not win another game this year. This is the most poorly coached team I've seen.
Hlf: 37-27, Lindenwood. Aces 9 of 26 from the field on their home court. 5 minutes without a point until :04.
8 turnovers.

Lindenwood is only in their 2nd year in D1.

I respectively disagree. This is a young team and they will be streaky. I think Kynidi tries to do too much when she has some decent offensive pieces around her.
Lindenwood is pretty quick but I think our defense is reacting pretty well. Points off forced turnovers and 2nd chance points are what's costing us so far.

I concede the youth but they don't move well and take poor possessions and make them worse. If they improve, it will need to be as a group and that's seldom what happens. Most turnovers are forced. Preventing that is how you win.

That last 3 seconds lasted a lifetime. WTF was that no-touch play?

That last 3 seconds lasted a lifetime. WTF was that no-touch play? The very last play? Kynidi made a smart play there. Ball had been touched on the pass in bounds and knocked loose so the clock had started. She blocked out the Lindenwood player so she couldn't get possession. The clock expired as the ball was rolling toward out of bounds.

The clock expired as the ball was rolling toward out of bounds. Not the play I meant. Lindenwood threw across court and UE let it go out of bounds with no time expiring. If she intercepts, there is no defender within 30 feet of her. Instead, the Aces have to inbound the ball.

Yeah if our girl retrieves that ball the clock runs out or they foul. Since no one touched the ball the clock stops and it's our ball.

I forget which player allowed it to go out of bounds, when they could of grabbed it and let the clock expire. Kynidi was upset about it too.
This team plays hard. 5 of our losses could of been wins had we closed out the game better. Although we do force some shots, I believe it has gotten better over the last month.
