Hell of a finish.

But we really need a bench...

Whalen went with a very short bench for this game. Bell, Bello and Pitts all played all 40 minutes. Jasmine Brunson played 38 minutes and Lamke played 28. Only two Gophers saw time off the bench with Palma Kaposi getting 12 minutes in giving Lamke a breather and Irene Garrido playing just two minutes.

Lindsay kind of went Thibs on them. Hopefully she is just picking her spots with it, while she develops her bench. Bell led the scoring despite a poor shooting night. Bello was the best player on the floor. If she was in the general vicinity, there was no such thing as a 50/50 ball.

The Cardinals scored 4 points in the first quarter and 11 in the half...

I think she's likely to transfer after this season as I don't know that she's a Whalen-type player.

3rd best start in team history.

2002-03: 12-0 (Whalen's Jr season)
2003-04: 15-0 (Whalen's Sr season)

There seems to be a common denominator here.

I see a national title in our near future.

Thanks Whalen.

Status: offline 		Lamke stepping up will really help in the rugged big ten....If you remember their best teams....they included the the big Australian that left after two years and MCcarville.

Expecting one of their top 3 point shooters back (Hubbard) after having foot surgery in October may help----if she can make it back. The big thing concerning me is the depth of this team. I see Bello's twin sister played a little bit but they mostly have an iron six with the freshman guard and 5-6 minutes from the senior big Kaposi.
