I watched as much of the game as I could bear. Saints beaten by failure to defend against the 3 and inability to make some of their own.
While constant trapping and double teaming is exciting and leads to steals, it also lead to a lot of fouls (some questionable) and wide
open threes which the Catamounts on their home court were good at making. Siena's shots whether close up or from distance were short.
I suspect that the women were worn out from the intense effort on defense . While this defense may work on some opponents it doesn't work on others.
I was hoping to see a switch from the gambling defense to a straight up man to man but was disappointed. As the saying goes can't keep doing the same thing
and expect different results.
