Dominique Pepe played a terrific game at point guard with four steals.
Tough games. We have three games in a week and that's something for us to get used to because that is how the CIAC tournament does it.
Going into the Valley for a weeknight game is never very easy, and we certainly didn't bring our A game. Our inability to put the ball in the hoop and Shelton's defense made for an exciting game. We made a push in the fourth quarter.
If we were forced into a half court game with them, we were in trouble. If our pressure doesn't work, we're in big trouble. We have to extend the court, and we couldn't tonight.
What a toughie. It was a hard-fought battle. I was very pleased with my girls' overall effort and intensity. We didn't quite have enough to pull it out but it was a game we can build on for the future.
We had quite a game in New Haven. We played an up-tempo game. We caused Cross numerous turnovers (36 for the game) to offset the height advantage.
Fitch is as improved as you want to see and a very good team. They had won four in a row. It was a close game and we played okay. We had to be perfect down the stretch and we're not good enough to be perfect.
