Boilers are kicking ass in the second half. Gearlds with 23 points so far with 9 minutes to go and are up 68-44 over Washington.
This game was slated in between the WNIT games, so Sunday will be a true test for the Boilers at Baylor in the WNIT Championship game.

| Final score is 88-64 Purdue. Didn't catch the game on streaming radio but Purdue shot 57% during the game and had a 15 rebounding edge over the Huskies. Going to get it done every time.

| I had a feeling this might have been the one to sneak up on us...so many games could have fostered some sort of let down and this was only the second game for a pretty good Washington team coming off of a road loss in their opener. It was quite close until Purdue went on I believe a 19 point run...game over. I hope our legs aren't too wobbly for Baylor.

I am relishing this game with Baylor, and I'm pretty sure SV is too. Hey, this is how the tourney is done: a game, one day off, then another game.
This team needs to play this type of game on the road.......with the development of Freeman and Campbell, I feel much better about our bench than I did before the season started. It sounds to me like those two are gaining confidence and if they play with confidence then they are capable of having some great games.
I can't wait to see SV match wits with KMR. Should hopefully be fun.

| Did the radio announcers say what the deal was with Jodi Howell? She played very few minutes and didn't start the second half. She also looked sore and pale as a sheet. Hope she feels better on Sunday

I didn't know she didn't start the second half till this morning, and that was only because it was mentioned in the article I read.
Hopefully she's okay, because we NEED her to be okay. And hopefully it was nothing more than her not feeling well.

| I don't know if Jodi was sick or not. I do know that she appeared bewildered and easily flustered. After the first 2-3 minutes of the game, I was thinking that Versyp needed to pull her and put Danielle in -- which she ended up doing. Jodi did get more playing time here and there and got in a couple of nice plays, but she never appeared to be really clicking into the game. I just have to say that the 3 pointer made by Katie at the end of the first half was pure, grade A beauty, as was our holding them scoreless for the first 5 minutes in the second half. It was a solidly fun game to watch for any Boiler fan.

I didn't hear anything in the post-game and wouldn't be too concerned unless we hear otherwise. While it is all to true that Jodi will likely always have knee problems, I thought she moved well in the second half and even showed more penetration (not more than we've already seen this year...just that we didn't see any last year).
I am guessing Campbell got the second half start due to Versyp wanting to start the second half with more length and height, as well as Campbell playing a very good first half.
