You check out their and you win the game. NIU had TWO timeouts left. Would’ve like to use one to emphasize BOX OUT and we win. Might’ve even “froze FT shooter’” although she missed both anyway. Tough loss after fighting all the way back.

Again, I didn't see the game, but from what you said ... and a good point ... fundamentals again. The BallSt player knew what she was going to do if she missed. NIU obviously didn't. NIU left with 1 sec; that ticks off at the in-bound catch. Makes me wonder what they do in practice.

Oh well. Tough(er) next 3 coming up.
