WBB vs Clemson Feb 24 at 1PM

The Lady Hokies play Clemson at Clemson. The game is on the Regional Sports Network. You may get it if you live in SC. It's on ATT Sportsnet in the Pittsburgh area. Clemson is 17-10 overall 8-5 in ACC play with wins at home against LOLUVa, Ga Tech and FSU and away against Miami, FSU Pitt, WF and BC. They have lost at home to Syracuse, Notre Dame and UNC and away to NC State and Ga Tech,

Stats:

This is a winnable game; but will be a challenge because every away game is a challenge in the ACC. We match up pretty well size wise against Clemson. No. 5 Edwards and 12 Collier are threats from 3; but Clemson only has 54 made three's in 13 ACC games. They only score 66.9 ppg game in ACC play and allow 66.2. If Tech plays their game, this might be a win; but they will need to make their shots. We have the offense to make this easy if Mabrey, Emery and others shoot well from outside. Maybe Magarity can get some shots without being fouled; or maybe some of the fouls will get called. Win this one and we should win out.

Go Hokies.

Down 10-8 after the first qtr. not making their shots.

Doesn't matter if it's cake or pie as long as it's chocolate.

33-24 good guys at the half. They got hot in the second quarter.

Unfortunately the Ladies were pretty sloppy defensively in the 3rd quarter with some self inflicted wounds on turnovers and such. 9 point lead down to 2 51-49 with Clemson scoring more in the third than the first half.

51-49 Hokies after 3. Am I the only one watching this game?

Turnovers are killing us, and we are shooting 53% this shouldnt be close right now

A lot of those turnovers are caused by fouls that aren't being called.

I agree. Lot of dribbling arms being hit. Then a Tiger takes a Hokie to the floor but its a foul on Tech

Lot of contact being allowed which favors the bigger bodies of the Tigers. Magarity on the bench with 4 fouls doesnt help. Tigers getting lane penetration almost every possession against the 2-3 zone which shouldnt happen.

And Magarity fouled out within twenty seconds of returning

Clemson getting so many rim bouncers to go in

And there goes a Clemson run that likely ends the game

Another winnable game lost because we can't score late in the game. 0for 6 from 3 in the 4th qtr.

Appropriate end of the game with a no call when Clemson jumps into Mabry.

once Magarity went out they went to the rim with ease unfortunately.

Fourth Quarter Stats.
0 for 10 from 3
6 for 10 from 2
6 fouls
4 turnovers

And they lost by 7. Make a couple of three's in the fourth quarter and it's a different result,

Just another chapter in the 2018 season book. Feel bad for the Lady Hokies, probably could have made the show.

I just hope they can get their shit together Thursday. That last game against the hoos was a serious let down. Leading most of the game only to let them go on a 15-4 run over the last five minutes to win it.
