Well, the way Wheaton played tonight, they don't deserve the ORV votes.
Seems IWU still does. Big win over Elmhurst tonight 101-71. It was a run-up-and-down, track meet kind of game, with IWU often beating the EU pressure, with good decision-making, over the top passes and many easy layups.
For EU:
Bukata 19
Makuie 11
EU at 36%, 14% from three, 56% FTs to go with 22 TOs and only 8 assists
For IWU:
Knutson 16 and 10
Huber 15 and 7
Powers 13 and 8
White 11
Sarah Balli with a breakout game, more minutes, the new Titan tonight in this role -- 18 points.
Bardic only 7 points in 9 minutes, as she was clobbered in the lane by a driving EU player about halfway through the first Q, went down badly in what looks to be a strained knee. Let's really hope nothing worse. She did not return and was on one crutch sitting on the bench the rest of the game. If she is out for extended time, this would be a tremendously bad blow for the Titans. She's been playing super well and is the leading IWU scorer so far through 8 games.
The Titans only had 15 TOs, also 11 steals and a robust 25 assists. Very good team play, ball movement to beat EU's pressure, often throwing it over the top for easy baskets. The Titans basically matched Elmhurst's up tempo play and beat them at their own game.
Rebounds tied at 48-48.
EU had a new five in about every 4-5 minutes. So, if you want to play this up-and-down style vs. the Titans, you will probably lose bigtime. Mallory Powers at full strength makes a tremendous difference to the IWU line-up. Knutson with another strong game tonight. Sawyer White did an excellent job at PG after Bardic went out with the injury.
Titans now at 6-2, 1-0.
