Keep your eye on Epps....if she gets in a groove from 3, we are next to impossible to beat...slow her down, you slow down our offense, no matter how good Roundtree and the Hudsons are.....

I foresee an absolute dandy game Monday evening, down to the wire.

[Sly Fox]

I remember Courtney from high school. She played at the school where Charlie Ward coaches the boys and is offensive coordinator for the football team.

Monday's night game is huge for the ladies and the students really need to come out for this one game if no others the rest of the way.

[jcmanson]

The GW team is in convo

[Sly Fox]

When was the last time something like that happened?

[BJWilliams]

With a win tonight we will be two wins away from our third straight 20-win season and ninth in Carey Green's 11 seasons at the helm.

[Sly Fox]

Chris has updated the blog before the game ...

And here is how we can follow along if we're not inside the Vines:

Audio Stream

Live Stats

[SuperJon]

The game is also on Sports South. I think Comcast Sports Net may have it too.

[Sly Fox]

I no longer get SportSouth. Guess I'll be living with the sounds of the Light and delayed Live Stats tonight.

[4everfsu]

Game is also on MASN DirecTv channel 640

Correction, SportsSouth, DirectTv channel 649

[jcmanson]

The game is also on Sports South. I think Comcast Sports Net may have it too.

Not Comcast Sports Net. They have UVA/Maryland women.

SportSouth live @7
MASN tape delayed @1am

[olldflame]

It is scheduled to be on the Liberty Channel and they are showing an infomercial.

[4everfsu]

If LU does not get better ball movement on the offensive side of the court, it is going to be a long night

[Sly Fox]

I haven't heard Jamie in quite awhile.

G-W up by 5, 20-15.

[olldflame]

We are trailing 20-15 with 6:40 to play in the half. I assume it must be the location of the mic, but it almost sounds like a G-W home crowd on the radio.

[Sly Fox]

Devon & Avery carrying nearly the entire load. It'd be great to get some help by the backcourt.

Epps hits her 3-pointer, 23-17 G-W.

[4everfsu]

There is no crowd at the game

[Sly Fox]

I assume it must be the location of the mic, but it almost sounds like a G-W home crowd on the radio.

I was thinking the same thing and it confused me at first about what was happening based on incongruent call versus natural sound.

[olldflame]

After trailing by 6, Amber Mays ties it at 25 with 1-2 from the line.

[olldflame]

Devon's putback gives us the lead with less than a minute in the half.

[Stevev]

We just tied it up 25 all with Amber Mays FF. Shooting starting to pick up a bit. I am surprised we have such a small crowd. For some reason we are not drawing well this year

[olldflame]

Epps misses from 3 and we hold for the last shot. Devon misses from 3.

Halftime score:

LU 27
G-W 25

[Stevev]

Up 27-25. Not bad considering how poorly we have shot. Need to get others involved more. Avery and Devon carrying us.

[Sly Fox]

[olldflame]

We start out fast in the second half to stretch it to 30-25. Avery draws the 3rd foul on Roundtree.

[olldflame]

Avery back to the line for 2. She makes one, and the lead is 6. Then she draws her 3rd foul going after the board.

[olldflame]

Rachel on the drive and we lead by 8, but Epps responds quickly.

[Sly Fox]

Lost my audio stream ... thanks for the updates, olldflame.

[olldflame]

G-W cuts it to 33-29 on the inside basket. Amber draws a foul as the shot clock is winding down. She misses both!

[olldflame]

D Hudson hits a 3 and the lead is down to 1.

[olldflame]

Media timeout.

[olldflame]

Rachel travels. Vaikute scores inside and G-W leads. Amber responds and we lead 35-34.

[olldflame]

Devon scores and the lead is back to 3. Turnover G-W.

[olldflame]

Danika Dale scores on a drive and is fouled. She converts and we lead 40-34.

[olldflame]

Epps misses and Avery rebounds. Rachel misses and the ball is off Avery out of bounds.

[olldflame]

D. Hudson is fouled and makes 1-2 at the line.

[olldflame]

Dale from 3 and we lead 43-35. D.Hudson back to the line. She makes both to cut the lead to 6.

[olldflame]

Rachel from 3 and we lead 46-37!! Vakuite scores inside 46-39. We miss, M. Hudson scores and is fouled.

[olldflame]

Attendance 833.

[olldflame]

11 minutes to play. Hudson converts and the lead is now 4.

[olldflame]

Morgan scores inside and the lead is 48-42. Epps misses. 9:30 to go.

[olldflame]

We turn it over. G-W reciprocates.

[olldflame]

Morgan draws the 4th foul on M. Hudson and then they draw a technical.

[olldflame]

It's a double technical. Morgan makes 1-2. Jamie and Nick have no idea who the G-W tech was on.

[olldflame]

Avery commits her 4th. Roundtree misses both Ft. We lead 49-42.

[olldflame]

Amber misses a layup. Devon rebounds the G-W miss.

[olldflame]

7 minutes to go. Shot clock violation. G-W ball after media timeout.

[olldflame]

Avery and Devon both have double doubles (again)

[olldflame]

D. Hudson banks in a long 3, but Kylee quickly responds from 2, then Danaka forces a turnover.

[olldflame]

Our ball up 6. Amber drives and is fouled. She makes 1-2. Up 52-45.
