Getting current on the Pac 10.
I have rated the Pac 10 teams, as we get closer to the start of League play.
1. Stanford 7-2: Five players averaging double figures with Pohlen right behind at 9.5.
2. Cal, 8-2:
Beat San Jose State 76-40. Ashley Walker led the way with 17 points and 7 rebounds. Kelsey Adrian hit 3 of 6 three’s for her 15 points. Cal out rebounded SJS 45 to 20.
Lost to Oklahoma 86-75, while being outscored at the end 36-4. The first half was all Cal and they played with intensity, while Oklahoma coasted. Walker had 22 in the first half and the whiling dervish Alexis Gray-Lawson had 13. In the second half the two combined for just 7 points. Lauren Greif had 18 points total, on 5 of 7from three. Watching the game from the 2nd row, my thoughts were that Cal just wore out. Hard to play a top team who plays with desire, as Oklahoma did in the 2dn half, when you stars are playing 38, 39 and 40 minutes. Gray-Lawson had 9 assists, but 5 turnovers, while Natasha Vital had 2 assists and 8 turnovers.
3. Arizona State, 7-2:
Beat UC Riverside 68-45. Briann January led the scoring for the Sun Devils with 16 points. 11 players had 11 or more minutes and 3 other between 6 and 8 minutes for the Sun Devils.
4. UCLA, 7-1 :
Beat the University of San Diego 95-58. Five players in double figures, led by Doreena Campbell with 18 points, Nina Earl with 17 and Darxia with 15 points. Campbell added 8 assists and no turnovers.
5. Oregon State, 6-1:
Beat UNLV 91-54. A very nice win by Oregon State with three players with 20 or more points. However an even better stat, 28 assists and 6, SIX, turnovers. Alex Mitchell led the scoring with 23 points, Brittany Davis had 22 points, 3 of 6 from three, and Talisa Rhea had 20 points, 4 of 12 from three. However that assist to turnover margin is just outstanding. Cedes Fox-Griffin, 9 assists and 1 turnover, Davis 6:0 and Rhea 6:1.
6. USC, 5-3:
Beat Montana State 82-61. Five players in double figures. Camille LeNoir had 12 points, 7 assists and one turnover. The rest of the team had 7 assists and 22 turnovers.
7. Washington State, 5-2:
Beat Idaho 53-50 while shooting 26% to Idaho’s 46%. However Idaho committed 27 turnovers to Washington State’s 11. Jazmine Perkins scored 14 points for the Cougars.
8. Arizona, 5-4:
Beat the University of San Diego 66-58. Ify Ibweke led five Wildcat players in double figures with 17 of her own points. Arizona starts three guards, who played all but four minutes of the game. The three had 11 assists to only 5 turnovers. This is an improving team, and the fans, 1,423 came, have been appreciative. San Diego is 6-4 and for reference beat Utah Valley State who beat USC.
Beat Long Beach State 56-47. Ify Ibweke was named the Pac 10 Player of the Week and in this game she had 15 points and 17 rebounds. Reiko Thomas had 23 points including making 11 of 12 Free Throws, many down the stretch.
9. Washington, 3-3: Did not play
10. Oregon, 3-4:
Lost to a good Georgia Tech team 74-59. This game was played in Portland’s Rose Garden before 8,374 people. Contrast that to our attendance or the Cal - Oklahoma game that had 2,640. Oregon shot 50% but had 27 turnovers. Oregon had 15 less shots than GaTech and 5 less free throws. Micaela Cocks had 17 points on 5 of 6 from three. Nicole Canepa had 13 points. Taylor Lilly, their great three point shooter, played for the first time this season.
