2-0 WP

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

The broadcasters keep calling the Rubel girls Rudd. I’m so confused by this.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Zoey Williams with a still in transition and takes it back for the layup.
6-2 WP lead with 4 min left in 1st Q

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Lady Zizzers are rebounding way better on the offensive glass tonight than they were last night. That’s for sure.

L Rubel with a 3 to break the drought for Notre Dame.
14-5 Zizzers with 1 min left.
Judd with a turnaround with 6 sec left.
16-5 at the end of the 1st.

Judd intercepts a pass and goes coast to coast for the reverse layup in traffic.
16-5 Lady Zizzers lead with 6 min left in 2nd Q

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

A clean block from Judd gets called a foul.
100% ball on this block.
Wommack not happy about that call.

[AC100]

This Notre Dame team just basically shoots 3s and the outcome just depends on how many they make.

& 1 for the 3-Point play.
26-10 WP with 1:35 left in half

judd with at least 15 so far.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

30-10 WP at half.
1 foul called on the Lady Zizzers in the 1st half.
IF they make the tournament title game against Nixa tomorrow, they expect the exact opposite treatment from the officials after what I saw in the Nixa-WG game before this lol.

according to the broadcasters, WP is 9-0 all-time in Nixa Invitational games and has won all 3 tournaments they’ve competed in. Haven’t verified that though.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

This Notre Dame team just basically shoots 3s and the outcome just depends on how many they make.

They haven’t even tried to work it inside.
it’s mind blowing considering they have 6’0 and 6’1 sisters in there. One of which is their best player.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Notre Dame has missed 3 shots at point blank in the first two minutes of the 2nd half.
judd scores to start out the 2nd half.
32-10 WP with 5:21 left in 3rd.
judd with somewhere around 20 & 7 so far for WP. Has probably 3 steals and at leasr 3-4 assists as well.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

2nd charging call on L Ruble tonight.
every time she drives she drops her shoulder and initiates the contact hard.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Notre Dame scores their first points of the 3rd Q with 1:30 left in 3rd.
36-13 WP

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

[ChaoticFanatic]

23 for Judd now as WP leads 48-25 with 4:15 left in the game

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Judd sinks 2 FTs to give herself 25 on the night.
50-25 WP leads with 2:50 left

both teams have now subbed in all of their 2nd string it appears now following the FTs.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

Scratch that. Notre Dame just had a player foul out so I guess they didn’t put in all of the second stringers.

 

[Razzy417]

I knew within the first few minutes that west plains would win that easily so I left. Against that zone plus having two 6 footers or close (And Judd plays bigger than her height) all most teams can do is try to move the ball and get open 3’s. You’re not gonna get much inside against them. Pressuring them can work too if a team can get steals and transition layups. That’s what Nixa will surely try to do tomorrow.
