2019-2020 Women's Basketball

[EvanJ]

We trailed 46-24 with 8:59 left in the third quarter and almost came back. Jakayla Brown made a layup with 40 seconds left to go down 65-63. Charleston didn't shoot an open three, possibly to use up more time with the game clock having 8 more seconds than the shot clock. With 4 seconds left on the shot clock, Charleston called timeout. After the inbounds pass, they committed a quick turnover, which I think was stepping out of bounds. We got the ball with 10 seconds left. We called timeout, and the play-by-play says we called consecutive timeouts. Then our inbounds pass was stolen, and we should have been called for a reach-in foul, but we got a gift with a call of simultaneously possession that let us keep the ball because the possession arrow. Ana Hernandez Gil tried a three for the lead and missed with 4 seconds left. The announcer said that when we trailed by 2 hosting Charleston, Hernandez Gil made a three after the buzzer.
Charleston got the rebound, and with 1.9 seconds left, somebody made a freshman (should I say freshwoman?) mistake of calling timeout. We fouled with 1.0 left, and Charleston made both free throws to win 67-63. In the fourth quarter, Charleston shot field goals 0-9 and free throws 10-12 (.833). We had a much better field goal percentage, .479 to .333, and 8 more rebounds, but we had 14 more turnovers. Turnovers were 26 to 12. Charleston attempted 12 more field goals and 4 more free throws. Jaylen Hines had a majority of our points until our last 4. She led all players in points with 30 and rebounds with 12. Madison Taylor led Charleston with 20 points, Nia Covington and Arynn (pronounced Erin) Eady tied for Charleston's lead with 7 rebounds, and our Sorelle Ineza and Charleston's Latrice Perkins tied for the lead with 3 assists. We had the top three rebounders. In addition to Hines, Marianne Kalin and Sandra Karsten had 8. Both of them scored 5 and fouled out. Our games before the CAA Tournament are at UNCW on Sunday and hosting Northeastern next Saturday. Charleston and UNCW entered tied for eighth (the worst teams other than us).

Yeah they were giving up around 15 more points then they score. Definitely a recipe for success.

Has a team ever gone winless in conference before?

[EvanJ]

Yes, but we were the first team to go 0-18. The last winless team was UNCW in 1995-1996 when the CAA had 9 teams and they went 0-16.

In between the tweet and when you linked to it, CNN said some colleges are closed including Hofstra this week. A student who went to a conference somewhere else got coronavirus.
