Wyoming looks more tired than the Gophers.Gophers are riding seven players tonight. Battle and Grocholski are at 32 minutes each, Heyer at 29. Probably getting tired.
Wyoming has played 10 players.
Big time thanks!Minnesota at Wyoming – WNIT Great 8

Here's the link for the broadcast if anyone needs it.
Sounds like we go to Troy. Think we would sell more tix at home than them. You would think WNIT would want to sell more tix.Gophers in the Final Four

From my perspective, when GG and Heyer have trouble getting open, it's tough for a point guard to distribute. I saw a lot of cutting and moving from one side to the other and not being able to get open unless they were 25 feet out. Even when they did get the ball, they had a defender stuck on them most of the time and really couldn't do much. GG did not look comfortable when she did get about 4 somewhat open looks. The one time we did get a backdoor look, we fumbled it. The Wyoming post was enough of a deterrent to keep Sanders from driving very deep, so that took alot of her game away.Wyoming looks more tired than the Gophers.
Battle clutch at the end, but would be nice to see her dish more frequently.
Plus a 3 hour bus ride from Atlanta to Troy. Yeowzers!And, on the post game show on the radio, Amaya said they flew commercial to tonight's game. And, Dawn said they go to Denver tonight, and then fly to Atlanta tomorrow to head for Troy, AL for our next game - the FAB 4. Would guess that is a Wednesday game. Maybe the WNIT doesn't allow charters?
Shit!We can’t host on Wednesday as they are setting up for HS Robotics. Same with the championship on Saturday.
Agree with Maggie! Never once seem to complain about her role all year long. Team player that works hard when gets in there. Starting to develop some more offense too!looked like Wyoming was LOCKED in on Grace and Heyer from behind the arc.. wish we would have ran a few more back door cuts or look for it.. but their post was in there..
I'd like to shoutout Maggie tonight.. made the game tying 3 when it looked like the game might be slipping away.. had THREE very big steals in the 2nd half.
Grace with only 3 points but they were SUPER GLUED to her tonight.. but GG did mange to grab a career high in rebounds with 11 tonight.
Nia ONCE again was a HUGE spark off the bench tonight.. 6/7 for her and was a +10 in only 20 minutes.
also Amaya is now tied for 8th all time in assists.. 99 behind Emily Fox for 7th all time.
I was wondering this too. Hope she is feeling better and recovering.Ayianna Johnson still in concussion protocols?
To bad would be nice to see here develop a little more.I was wondering this too. Hope she is feeling better and recovering.
Same to you!Congrats Gopher fans!
AJ's availability would also give Heyer and GG a few more minutes of rest throughout the game. And help on D. I've never seen her not hustle.To bad would be nice to see here develop a little more.
