*** #1/1 USC WBB (11-0) VS. #2/3 Stanford (8-2) Game Thread ***

It was a typical shoulder to shoulder leaning contact prior to the shot, as players start jockeying for box out position and to not be boxed out.  The replay definitely showed that the Stanford player was in the lane first before Boston stepped in.  I think most of the conversation was whether Boston's lean had forced the Stanford player's violation.

Thanks. I was curious what the TV angle showed. It was hard to tell because of people moving around and partially blocking the view.

Officials finally started calling the illegal screens on Stanford #3. May have been the difference.

The difference was the defense in the second half was much, much better than what we saw in the first half. They forced 13 Stanford turnovers (out of 20 total) and held Lexie Hull in check for the second half. Hull had 14 points at halftime and finished with 17.

Great win.  Lots of moxy by this ladies team.  They sure play great in the 2nd half of games.  Dawn must have some great speeches in the locker room.  This team is really good and I agree that Henderson was a difference maker in that game.

That was one hell of a comeback.  This team appears to be something special. Hopefully Zia gets out of her funk soon.
