Instead it was Nesbit and her teammates who mounted the pressure with their stingy stin·gy adj. stin·gi·er, stin·gi·est 1. Giving or spending reluctantly. 2.

After a close first half, the host Wolverines (12-7, 4-0) surged in the third quarter, outscoring the Eagles (13-7, 2-2) by a 22-9 margin behind Nesbit's team-high 23 points and five assists. With Hung, a sophomore, nursing a right knee injury, Nesbit combined with sophomore forward Sydney Haydel to make up for Hung's absence. Haydel finished with 11 points and sixrebounds, all in the second half.

"Because Nicole brings a lot of points, we knew we both have to step up and incorporate all of our teammates into our game," Haydel said. "We needed to realize that without her we're still a competitive team." The Wolverines proved that against a Chaminade team that likes to dominate in the paint with a power duo Power duo is a name sometimes given to two-piece rock bands consisting of just an electric guitarist and a drummer, particularly those who follow a similar blues rock style to a traditional power trio, for example the White Stripes and the Black Keys. in center Kim Capicotto and forward Erin Dautremont.

We came in prepared and we felt ready. We got surprised." Wolverines coach Melissa Hearlihy wasn't surprised with her team's performance, especially on defense. Nesbit, who finished with seven steals, led a defensive effort that forced 18 Chaminade turnovers. "That's the style I've always loved to play," Hearlihy said. " You can do more with less if you play strong defense." ivan.orozco@dailynews.com |
