BG vs. Ball State

By Colin Wilson on March 10th, 2007

Ali Mann hits a three and the inside game looks like a battle on both ends. Mann is pushing Julie Demuth around, but Demuth is returning the favor under Ball State’s basket. If Ali can hit more long jumpers, Demuth may loosen up on her.

UPDATE:

Demuth just got packed for the second time and picked up her second foul. Flynn just drove the lane for a tough two. 12-4 BG.

UPDATE:

Ball State can’t get anything early, a Kate Achter steal and lay up forces Tracy Roller to call a timeout, 7-2 BG.

UPDATE:

First media timeout, it’s still 7-2 for BG. The Cardinals offense is not very fluent. BG is playing zone and Demuth is not getting to the basket at all. Horne just jumped over her and blocked a shot because she had to alter it so much. Mann and Honegger are playing well on the block.

UPDATE:

BG just dodged a bullet at one end when Audrey McDonald missed a three, Megan Thorburn went right down and showed her how it’s done. 10-4 BG. Lindsey Goldsbery and Amber Flynn enter.

UPDATE:

Ball State is 1-of-8 from the field and has four turnovers. Ouch.

UPDATE:

11:26 to go and it’s 16-5 BG. Ball State just took their second timeout and BG drew an offensive foul right off the inbound. Tracy Roller is pretty close to getting a technical from what I can see.

UPDATE:

BG is playing really good help defense. I think they force more turnovers when they get lost in a screen because they’re so quick to recover. Ball State now has seven turnovers and is 1-of-10 from the field. BG should put them away while they’ve got them down this much.

UPDATE:

It’s still 18-7 BG at the third media timeout. Ball State would have two points if there were no such thing as fouls. I’m amazed at the amount of people here. BG showed up for this one, I guess that’s what happens when you win a lot.

UPDATE:

Congrats to Julie Demuth, she finally scored. Breske is now in the game. It’s 21-14 BG with five minutes to go in the half.

UPDATE:

Demuth just picked up her third foul by cutting Mann’s legs out on a rebound. It’s 23-16 with 3:30 to go.

UPDATE:

I realize for those of you without a scroller on your mouse reading the updates probably sucks. I’m going to do it the opposite way next half.

Amber Flynn just ran a fake screen and then cut to the basket for a lay up and got fouled. What a play. BG might just be too clever for Ball State. 27-16 BG with 1:37 to go in the half.
