It is no secret that I am a Whitley fan, with that said here is my take on the game.

The officials were not great, not bad but not great. I think both coaches would have had legit complaints on more than a few calls.

I think that Whitley did a great job taking the real Corbin motor out the game and that is Ashley, they limited her crashing the boards and limited her second shots and kickouts to other players. This limited Corbin, to the Wilson's backing it in and drawing fouls. Whitley however did a much better job executing the offense and made more plays. Due the the fact that Corbin missed shot after shot they were never able to really get their press going, which surprised me especially off the made FTs. Whitley's half court defense was better and had they done a better job rebounding especially in the late first quarter and the whole second quarter the Lady Colonels win by 20+. Corbin had no answer for Craig in the middle or Smith driving to the bucket. The one player they did hurt was Johnson, and Estes more than made up for her. There are some things that the Lady Redhounds can overcome, but until they find an answer for Craig and Smith, they are going to struggle. Whitley continues to improve, not sure I'm seeing that same improvement from Corbin. They looked good early but have since leveled off.

I totally agree 100%. It's nice to know some Whitley fans are sensible. I'm just waiting on someone to say Corbin recruited the Wilson girls.
