Anyone have any details? Heard that Moss had 33 for Boone but no official confirmation.

Sorry I missed this one, from the score it sounds like it was a pretty good game. Up waiting for the Enquirer so I can read the details.

Conner led by 2 at the half. Moss did a lot of damage in the second half, Conner couldn't stop her. Sandlin did a good job of feeding her the ball.

 

Conner played without their leading scorer (Fischer) who was out all week sick.

Sonny, how would you stop Boone? They must have been missing first half shots, what changed?

I'm not really sure.

 

They set good screens for their point guard. If you can get the defender of the girl setting screens to "hedge?" out on the point guard to cut her off and keep her from penetrating until the defender can catch back up to her, it will help with her penetrating and giving the easy dish off to Moss. Easier said than done because Sandlin is very quick.

 

Even with a weak side defender doubling up on Moss when she gets the ball, Moss is hard to stop.

 

You also have to keep Strout from getting up three point looks. She will hit them if left open.

 

IMO, Moss should have had several fouls called on her when Conner drove the lane and put up shots, but the refs didn't see it the way the Conner fans did! That would have helped if Moss was sitting on the bench.

 

Boone did what they had to do to win. Conner played one of their better games of the year and gave them some confidence against a great Boone team.

 

BTW, keep up the great pictures, PaNDA!
