After getting dominated by a hot Harvard team at home a week and a half ago, the Lady 'Cats won at Loyola in a slight upset and at home against Cornell. Despite continuing to be terrible at shooting 3s, they improved their offensive efficiency by significantly cutting down on turning the ball over and hitting the offensive glass the past two games.
The game against Loyola swung on a 17-2 run early in the 2nd half, and Taylor Williams was the MVP, with 22 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 1 block! A big game for Grace Sullivan too, with 15 points, 7 boards, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. Caileigh Walsh continues to round back into form off the bench with 10 points and 6 rebounds.
Against Cornell, the 'Cats steadily built up to a 15 point lead, though had to withstand a 22-10 run by Cornell in the 2nd half before holding them scoreless for the final 5:40(!) of the game. Kyla Jones had a very efficient 15 points on 10 shots, along with 4 rebounds and 3 assists against no turnovers. Grace Sullivan had another big game leading all scorers with 22 points, along with 6 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. Caroline Lau had a wild statline, with 0 points on 0-7 shooting, but had 12(!) assists against only 1 turnover, plus 8 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block.
Next up on Wednesday is a DePaul team that has played a brutal schedule so far and gotten rocked by it, Torvik has it as a 1-point 'Cats win. DePaul will have the best player on the court in Jorie Allen, but the rest of the team does not match up to her quality. Hoping the 'Cats can pull out a win before the first conference game of the year on Sunday.
