Sarah St Fort is having a nice game. Miami 31 UT 28, 6 minutes to play 3rd Q.
Boyd forces a pass into three defenders. What is does she see?
Reiser-esque pass from Santucci to McIntyre.
Nice pass from Santucci to McIntyre, couldn't finish, but drew foul and hit both FTs. Rockets up 34-33.
McIntyre with a nice block.
Rockets up 36-35 after 3Q.
Shooting percentage went down in the 3rd (uggh) but Rockets took over the lead. D keeping them in the game again.
How many missed lay ups . . . again?
Still up by one going into the final quarter.
If the offense could improve just a little to match the defense this would be an entirely different game.
Painful to watch but we lead and have 10 more minutes.
We really need Monakana back
some really beautiful assists from Santucci
A couple of buckets by McIntyre and a block. Rockets up 44-41, 7 minutes to play.
St Fort 6 pts, 9 rebs
Rokkanen 7 points
Bucket by Olivia Cunningham, Rockets up 7, about 5 minutes to play, timeout Miami
Rockets getting to the rim now, and actually making them. Huge game by St. Fort rebounding and playing D (sometimes defending the post, and sometimes the point) and also contributing on offense.
Well there they are!! I love it when they come to life. I'm excited right now.
Three layus and a short baseline jumper and the Rockets are playing better ball.
Santucci and Boyd with 5 assists each
Santucci with a 3, her first 3 in MAC play per announcers.
Nice look from Woody to J-A B-H for a bunny, Rockets back up 7. make that 5 now, then woody hits a 3, Rockets up 8.
