I'm afraid we'll get pushed around and not have an answer to that. Army did it and #44 did a lot of it yesterday. BU has some big ladies IIRC.
Have we been a bit victimized by the way those games were officiated, or is that the way they call all the games?

Yesterday Berger got called for some terrible fouls called on her underneath the basket trying to get position. On one call it looked like the other player simply tripped and fell over.

The defensive block call on Berger (or was it Allen) would have been overturned in the NBA. It was horrible.

Have we been a bit victimized by the way those games were officiated, or is that the way they call all the games? That seemed to be case yesterday. As one of us said yesterday at the game, the AU strategy seemed to be they beat us by 20 last time so let's go out there, be very physical, and see what we can get away with. The refs played along. 44 just pushed everyone and 23 was swinging her arms everywhere

Have we been playing Berger and Allen together much since Janelle came back? Seems like our best combo if Boston starts its two posts together .

Donnelly seems to have hit a wall; they're not playing her as much. She does have a little size; it's tough having Cross, Flanagan and McCormack all out there simultaneously.

Someone once said that the caliber of referees is somewhat consistent with the caliber of the teams. IMO women’s refs are inferior to mens, and PL women’s refs would be toward the bottom of D1 refs.

My experience is that the refs for the women's games are no worse - maybe not better - than at the men's games. While it shouldn't be obvious, but is, there are more women refs officiating the women's games than men. They seem as competent in every respect as the men reffing.
If the criticism is lower level D-1 vs. the power conference reffing, totally agree. I guess you get what you pay for.

I think it is less MED hitting the wall than Foreman's mins increasing, likely for more offensive, which has been a bit of hit or miss so far.

MM has to look at this like it's the first of 3 games with Boston. It's all about what we can learn about what works and what doesn't and adjust each round. The W would be great but learning about how to give us the best chance to win in the end is the right way to go.

Officials letting the posts fight a little bit inside. I like it.

Big Berger block ends quarter with HC up 23-17. Allen and Berger in the starting lineup together has been effective vs the Amazons of Commonwealth Ave.

Few teams leave the Weimar Republic unscathed so this game is far from over. HC has thrown the last couple of passes right to a Terrier. 37-24 HC.
