to be) “the new offense.”
I like this so much better than the ol’ inside /out offense. This is creating much cleaner looks for our shooters. And if we can continue to convert well on middies and 3’s, that will open things up for Lauren. My favorite play was when Lauren posted, didn’t get position, and fed Dugs. There aren’t many teams whose 2nd best post defender can handle Dugs.
There was a play where Lauren tried to force it against 3 defenders. Close immediately pulled her. And she sat a while. Looked to me like a message was sent.
The announcers said that Close had said the Texas game was the gut punch they needed. Maybe the first half was the gut punch Cori needed. Starting with the second half of f the Texas game they’ve played fantastically.
