Team loses in overtime. Dukes led by 11 at one point, then the offense pretty much disappeared. Game was poorly officiated with Richmond seemingly called for traveling all night and the Dukes getting called for touch fouls. Three of the calls on Paige were debatable and it hurt when she fouled out early. An injury to Libby robbed the team of momentum and they never recovered. Our field goal percentage was quite bad the whole game. Our posts scored early, but not late. Our guards tried to rely on the dribble drive exclusively rather than looking for shots. We never used the zone which recently has been very good. The loss kept us from being in third place alone which really makes the upcoming Davidson game really big for seeding purposes in the A10 tourney. Go Dukes!
Any word on the injury to Libby? I was shocked that they let that one get away; but didn’t realize that Libby couldn’t finish the game due to injury. It would be a huge blow to the team if she is out for an extended period of time.
Libby did finish the game after sitting for a bit. It looked like a sprain. She is such a tough kid that she gutted it out but did not look 100%. Without Libby, we would be in a terrible situation.
