MSU WBB vs Utah

[CatRowdy]

These Sunday games always sneak up on me! Ladies are playing Utah right now... 7:05 pm 11/24.
Utah looks to be a tough team, lots of seniors and juniors; tough defensively and pretty versatile on offense. Announcers keep saying how they get teams in foul trouble and it appears to be true; with 5 left in the 1st it's MSU with 5 fouls and the Utes with 1.

At the half shooting 38% versus their 48% and we are zero for 10 at 3 pointers. Marah and Martin carrying 80% of the points. Doesn't look like we traveled well for this one.
Couple really good shows of Chirrick's speed, as she matures she will be a heck of a force to deal with!

Young group provided a spark a couple times. But can't be 2-17 from 3 like they were at on point. Finally hit a few. Utah was averaging 90+ so defense was okay, but when we hit a few 3's they pushed ball and got easy shots. Not a bad effort

Dykstra (career high 22 pnts, 2 Rebs, 3 assists in 26 mins.) and Martin (13 pnts, 8 Rebs, 2 blocks) were solid as they always are for the Bobcats. Utah’s a tough defensive team that made their shots. We live and die at the 3 point line and today it was 17.4% at the arc for the Cats.
Final score: 53 MSU - 72 Utah

Morales couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn & finished with 3 points. Credit to Utah’s defense, especially that #2 (The Mosquito) who was in her grill all night. I really appreciated the TV announcers for Utah. They called the game with an even hand and were very knowledgeable about the Cats background.
