Not to be outdone by her freshman running mate, Tiana Tarter tied Erica's brand new (set only last game) ETSU record with 11 steals of her own on the road against Winthrop as the Bucs grabbed 21 steals and forced 30 turnovers. http://www.etsubucs.com/wbasketball/news...-winthrop/

There have been Buc teams that relied on steals and turnovers before, but I've never seen the Lady Bucs take it to this level.

The downside is that Raven Dean left limping with an injury, hopefully not too serious. At the time (3rd quarter) she was leading the Bucs in scoring with 12 and had 5 rebounds.

Going into this game the Bucs were tied for 3rd in D1 with 110 steals... with Houston, our next game on the road! Strange timing. http://www.ncaa.com/stats/basketball-wom.../team/1017

Unprecedented.

Didn't really want to start a new thread for this, but wanted to make sure you all saw it. Ezell has complimented Tarter plenty, but this is just exceptional:

On pushing Tianna to shoot more… “Tianna is the most unselfish superstar you will ever encounter. She doesn’t like the limelight and she’s appreciative of it. She doesn’t seek it. She could dominant ball games from tip to buzzer and she chooses not to. Sometimes she does it to try to lift up her teammates. Sometimes it’s just the feel for her. I really try to relate to Tianna at a cerebral level and try to challenge her on a passionate level. Tianna is very smart. She understands the game, but she also has a huge heart. She has a heart for her teammates. She has a heart for the name across her chest. Reaching Tianna is not hard to do. When Tianna wants to turn it on, she’s just fine, but even Tianna at average is better than most people at their best.”

Ezell compliments various team members

I'm assuming the writer meant "dominate" instead of "dominant", and more funny, "Erica has a nag for the ball", is likely supposed to be "knack".
