Coach’s Comments (Ryan Hulke):
Until we stop turning the ball over 25+ times a game we are not giving ourselves chances to win games. We are losing games by an average of 11 points right now and averaging 29.3 turnovers a game. If we cut those down by ten a game and score on half those possessions, it’s a whole new ball game every night. This is very possible for us as so many of these turnovers are unforced.
Tonight was probably overlooked by Claire scoring her 1000 career point; but we did some good things but just too many obvious mistakes. We allowed SESM to go on a 16-6 between the ten and five minute mark in the second half that put the game away for them.
