Should be a good measuring stick of where this team is at. Well at least I thought so until the Women's beavers (how odd does that sound?) $h!t the bed at home against Utah. Hope Sedona is back to full strength. She should be as I didn't hear anything about it being a high ankle sprain. Would like to see one of our guards besides Paopao, Mikesell and Boley step up. Did anyone else notice that Taylor is o-fer the season at the foul line??? Dugalic could be a big contributor and Sabally has been very good as well.

Who are you referring to? The season stats show that Taylor Chavez has made all 7 of her free throw attempts and Taylor Mikesell is 2 for 2 on her attempts. The worst free throw shooter on the team thus far has been Kylee Watson, who has made only 1 out of her 9 attempts.

Sorry I was speaking of Watson. Curious how a five star could have such horrible free throw mechanics?
Kennedy Brown hasn't played yet this season for OSU. Wonder if it is the same injury that ended her season last year and when she is due back?
Utah got 19 offensive rebounds against them and without Brown that is a potential problem for them.
Their super freshman Goforth is extremely similar in ranking, size and playing style to Sidney Parrish though she gets a ton more playing time because she doesn't have players like Boley and Mikesell ahead of her. Like Parrish she is supposed to be a great 3-point shooter who hasn't found her long range stroke yet in college, she is 5-19 so far and went 0 fer against Utah. She did get to the FT line 11 times against Utah. Hopefully, her 3 point shot wont return with a vengeance against the Ducks.
Goodman is their most consistent player and as always does most of her damage from 3.

It would be interesting to see what her free throw percentage was in high school. She obviously wasn't a five star based on her shooting, but I don't see anything totally broken with her form that indicates she can't become respectable at the line as her career progresses. In a few of her YouTube clips that featured her in high school, it showed her hitting a couple 3's smoothly, with good form. I think moving forward (particularly in future years) her free throws will be just fine.
Pumped for this game! Even those the Beavers lost last week, I fully expect this one to go down to the wire...If there was a crowd I'd take the Beavs, but I think the Ducks will prevail without one.
Good game tonight. #12 is going to be All Conference on her current trajectory. With Boley having an off game, TP-12 takes over the lead for this seasons most consistent player.
