URI beat this team by 40. Cassidy so off tonight. Seems a big part of poor showing in 2nd half

Final score: HC 51 / UM-L 41 It was closed to 45-41 but HC scored the last 6 points of the game. The second half was very strange. Hopefully it is out of their systems.

I made it to the game tonight. HC tried to give it away but UML didn't quite have enough to take it.

Watched the last 8 minutes, only bright spot was HC killing it from the foul line.
Some strange calls in those 8 min, most went against the Saders, but not a game that the officials should in any way be a factor.

If the HC that we saw tonight is the best in the PL I feel sorry for the league

If the HC that we saw tonight is the best in the PL I feel sorry for the league League is definitely down. HC will be better and probably a lot of teams better by the time conference plays rolls around. Lots of young players and many coaches still learning their team (and some learning on the job).

There is much that can be fine tuned such as spacing. It seemed like players from both teams were bumping into each other indiscriminately. Maybe by mid-season players are in the right place more often.
The depth perception from the stands is different than from streaming. On one play Allen had the ball under the backboard and I thought there was no way she could put it up but she expertly moved and spun the ball right in off the backboard. So she has post skills.
BPC had a quick burst ending with the ball going in near the basket. Her quickness and surety of movement was far more developed than the defenders. So the talent is there and it will surface again against better lineups like at BC.

Janelle Allen (20 points, 10 rebounds) lifts Holy Cross women's basketball past UMass-Lowell
Worcester Telegram & Gazette
WORCESTER — Janelle Allen scored 20 points and collected 10 rebounds Monday night, leading the Holy Cross women's basketball team to a 51-41 victory over UMass-Lowell at the Hart Center.
Allen equaled her career high in scoring while turning in her third career double-double. She grabbed four clutch rebounds over the final 5:54.
Bronagh Power-Cassidy, who averaged 18 points over the first two games, was held to two points on 1-of-9 shooting, but she had 10 rebounds, 5 assists and a steal in 36 minutes. Cara McCormack netted 13 points with four assists for the Crusaders (2-1), who led by as many as 17 points in the second quarter.
But the River Hawks (0-3) made a game of it in the latter stages, netting the first five points of the fourth quarter to close within 40-33, capping an eight-point run. Allen hit a free throw, then converted a layup off a Power-Cassidy feed to restore HC's lead to double digits.
Yet coming out of a timeout, the River Hawks' Mili Carrera (team-high 14 points) hit a 3-pointer and a layup in a 30-second span to trim the Crusaders' lead to 43-38 with 4:07 on the clock.
The teams traded baskets, then turnovers over the next two minutes. Allen committed her second foul with 1:52 left, and Gabby Ross hit 1 of 2 free throws to make it 45-41. With 1:09 left, Allen came up with a huge rebound off a Carrera missed layup.
With 59 seconds to play, Ross missed the front end of a one-and-one, Allen collected her ninth rebound, and Kaitlyn Flanagan hit two free throws, her first points of the night, for a 47-41 lead with 40 seconds left after being fouled by Carrera.
Allen was fouled with 30 seconds left after rebounding Sydney Hawkins' missed layup and hit the free throws, securing her double-double and victory for Holy Cross. Flanagan iced two more from the line with 25 seconds left for the 51-41 final.
The Crusaders set the tone early, hitting on 8 of 13 (61.5%) from the field in the first quarter while limiting the River Hawks to 4 of 17 (23.5%). Allen netted eight points and McCormack four as HC led, 18-10, after one quarter.
Holy Cross didn't hit a 3-pointer in six attempts in the first half yet extended its lead over the next 10 minutes. The Crusaders held UML to seven points in period 2 and led, 31-17, at intermission. Allen had 13 points in 13 minutes and McCormack 10, including two on a nifty baseline drive to end the half.
Power-Cassidy has just one basket but five rebounds and four assists in the first half. As a team, the Crusaders only hit one 3-pointer on 11 tries, by Simone Foreman, who finished with six points and nine boards.
Holy Cross has two road games before Thanksgiving, the first not until Sunday at Stony Brook. The Crusaders visit Villanova two nights later.
