Team is now 12-6 after shooting just 31% with 19 turnovers. Love that they push the ball. Hope that they take care of the ball better when running their sets. Do that and finishing toward the top of the league is feasible.

Re: Ladies Win 58-51

Good to get the win in a somewhat offensively challenged performance.  Paige really stepped up with big baskets.  Opponents are ganging up on post players and trying to overplay the entry passes to Sole and Precious in the paint; perhaps having the post player step out and face-up on the short-baseline would open up the middle a bit for driving lanes to the basket for our guards.  I think Sole is a good enough shooter to step out and hit the mid-range shot as well.  Just a few offensive observations from yesterday. 
On defense the straight/line drives to the hoop were still an occasional problem.
In summary, I think this team has tons of potential to be very good.  They definitely have the talent to succeed but just need to gel a bit better.  The emergence of Precious Johnson is also a nice plus for the inside game and rebounding.
