Key Player

• 
  #10 Karlee Taylor
  5' 6" Senior Guard
  Thru 15 Games: Averaging 10.1 Pts & 2.7 Rebs + 35.4% (28-of-79) on 3-Pt Attempts

We should dominate this one...Pietrowski is gone and the only player they have over 6-1 averages less than 6 points per game.

Except for a few games they have refined the art of keeping games close - but still losing. Coach has a system tailored to the skill/talent level of his team. We should win our 6th conference game in easy fashion.

It seems Winthrop is not the same team without their starting center Nunn and without her may lose a few more conference games along the way.

Liberty wins 59-51. Ashley Rininger leads the way with 18 points and finishes with another double double. Karlee Taylor (who I believe started out as a walk-on at PC) leads all scorers with 24 and pretty much carried the Blue Hose on her back tonight.

My thoughts - PC won most of the 50-50 balls and seemed to outhustle us at times. They had 13 offensive rebounds to our 7 and our lack of defensive pressure created only 5 TOs. The refs allowed PC to push our bigs out of offensive position with a lot of shoving and forearms to the backs of our bigs which neutralized our height advantage. I wonder if there was a time coach thought about a box and one on Taylor. We won while playing shorthanded which is a good thing. Now on to Winthrop.

Who were we missing?
We never really generate turnovers so that's not a big deal. The troubling stat is the rebounding edge. That's 2 games in a row where we haven't dominated the boards which is our trademark. The rebound differential needs to be much much higher.

While we didn't look too good we did out rebound PC 41-32. My question is if we are making more shots than PC (44% to29%), why would anyone be surprised that they might scoop up more offensive rebounds, especially when shooting from outside of the paint? Missing more shots than your opponent seems to give you more opportunities for offensive rebounds. Could you please correct my thought proves? No doubt, We did look pretty lethargic, and how we give up a rebound on a free throw... The PC team certainly played like they wanted the ball more than us.

We were missing Sadalia Ellis and Simone Brown, not to mention Jasmine Gardner. Offensive rebounding is heart and effort. With the size we have on the post and with Sanders at the 3, teams should not have that many OR. GW had 17 the game before.

I like Sid but she had problems dribbling the ball off her foot against GW so maybe its a good thing she took a game off

Ronny Fisher is the most underrated coach in Big South. And, he KNOWS how to beat Liberty. He just can't sign the horses it takes. But he comes darn close nearly every year.

We lost to Presbyterian last season in the Vines Center.
