Actually Reeta offensively started quite slowly struggling with her 3 point shots, many way off the target. I know I was yelling for her to keep shooting it! She was 2-10 and 2-8 (3 pt) with 6 points making her second half even more remarkable. And you are correct, offensively Bell and Henderson kept them alive in the first half. Am I complaining about Reeta; you better bet I'm not! But did want to point out the 6/22 scoring distribution between 1st and 2nd half. I keep saying "offensively" as a strong defense had a lot to do with this end and many contributed to that. -- Xavier Women's Basketball Message Board
