Maryland Game (scrimmage) thread

Maryland just playing harder than UNC. it is that simple

57-62 Terps with 5 min remaining

 

[23UNC]

Bofia will move ahead of Blanca early in the season.

 

[3397char]

Bofia with the baby hook shot!

 

[3397char]

Bofia again, she’s cooking

 

[Carolina151]

Not going to complain about officiating in a preseason game…. But 23-13 foul count with 4 minutes left seems…. Extreme

 

[BlueHeels02]

Need a bucket

 

[Carolina151]

68-61 Maryland with 2:41 left

 

[BlueHeels02]

There we go

 

[3397char]

Harpring and Brooks with successive layups, Terps call timeout up 65-68 with 1:41 left

 

[Carolina151]

Harpring and Brooks with successive layups, Terps call timeout up 65-68 with 1:41 left

Good take by Brooks

 

[3397char]

Akot with FTs to make it a 1 pt game, but misses both

 

[23UNC]

FT shooting will once again be a problem.

 

[BlueHeels02]

Harpring. Special.

 

[Gio2dahouse]

Bofia will move ahead of Blanca early in the season.

I truly hope you are right

 

[3397char]

Harpring creates a three and nails it 68-70 Terps ahead, with the ball. They call timeout with 32,3 left, 10 second differential, so don’t have to foul

 

[BlueHeels02]

She got fouled

 

[3397char]

Harpring clearly fouled on game tying shot. No call. Md Out of bounds 4seconds left

 

[Carolina151]

BS no foul call. Harpring should be at the line with an opportunity to tie the game

 

[3397char]

Terps make FTs, 4 point deficit, still 4 seconds left

 

[oldwell]

Oh well

Stuff to improve on but did well considering we had key players still out

 

[3397char]

MD wins and the dozens of fans go wild

 

[BlueHeels02]

Good experience

 

[kystroup]

Fun game. Kate is ridiculous. Didn’t look like foul on that last drive - would have liked a stronger take

 

[6string]

So what To make of Thomas? We were told she was healthy and improved but the results don’t seem to reflect that. Brooks and Harpring cannot be our leading rebounders.

 

[3397char]

MD played with late season tenacity. We did not. But still a close game with 3 players out.

Agara dominated Akot ane anyone else we matched to her.
Rebounding was bad.
Harpring was efficient, well over 50% EFG%, 29 points. 4 asst, 3 stls, 6 reb, lead the team in all stats Except blocks
Clardy played very little, my guess is she is still on minutes restriction.
okananwa, Agara and McDaniel in particular out hustled our team.

Md player swung her arm down, got her on the arm by my eye.

 

[Viking131]

Somebody, anybody..... Looking forward to a write-up on what happened. Who looked the part? Who surprised you? What needs to be worked on?

 

[3397char]

So what To make of Thomas? We were told she was healthy and improved but the results don’t seem to reflect that. Brooks and Harpring cannot be our leading rebounders.

To early to to tell IMO, we played a team who plays 5 out and a team who has two undersized, scrappy posts.

KH is up there with DeShields as best UNC freshman I have seen.
Noelle Bofia is talented and athletic.
Akot got a lot of her shots blocked
Team defense needs improvement.
Too many 0-2 trips to the FT line.
RK and BT are the same as last season.

 

[bradarb08]

They scored 19 points on free throws to our 7... that's the game, plus some.

Bofia with 4 fouls in 10 minutes. Also 6 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 blocks... Gonna need to get the fouling fixed if we want her to get more minutes.

 

[Gio2dahouse]

She is who she is.

 

[Jriv23]

FT shooting will once again be a problem.

We have got to be able to shoot FT's this year.

 

[Jriv23]

Harpring. Special.

We are know this but thanks for confirming this again.

 

[Jriv23]

BS no foul call. Harpring should be at the line with an opportunity to tie the game

That is the home cooking we have been talking about. All other teams will get a home cooking ball but no of our teams no matter what the sport is cannot. We saw that on display last night in the both the men's and women's soccer games last night.

 

[Carolina151]

I know I don’t see Maryland fans talking about a “revenge dub” for an exhibition game LOL

 

[Jriv23]

I agree. Akot must have been in four trouble all game long. I was not able to see the game. The three players who did not play for us are strong rebounders. Having them back so help out in that area tremendously. To only get beat by 4 on the road at Maryland with three players out should say something about this team. I am confident that once CT, SP, and GW are back and are able to play this will help out tremendously. I have one question since I was not able to watch the game. Did Maryland have any players out hurt? or was they at full strength?

Reniya played decently, just didn’t shoot it well

Thanks for the update 3397char. This is where Gabby, SB, and CT could have help out tremendously on the boards. This was a good contest for us heading to Paris. Brenda F does an excellent job at home firing her players up and having them being very physical and rough. Her teams have always been that way if my memory serves be correctly. I just hope that these players will be back and ready to go when we play our first game. Someone stated that NB played very well today. Did CB try playing Akot and NB at the same time against Maryland to help out on the boards? I am glad that we do have guards on this year's team that can go and get rebounds.
