Fitch is as improved as you want to see and a very good team. They had won four in a row. It was a close game and we played okay. We had to be perfect down the stretch and we're not good enough to be perfect.
Tough games. We have three games in a week and that's something for us to get used to because that is how the CIAC tournament does it.
We had quite a game in New Haven. We played an up-tempo game. We caused Cross numerous turnovers (36 for the game) to offset the height advantage.
What a toughie. It was a hard-fought battle. I was very pleased with my girls' overall effort and intensity. We didn't quite have enough to pull it out but it was a game we can build on for the future.
Going into the Valley for a weeknight game is never very easy, and we certainly didn't bring our A game. Our inability to put the ball in the hoop and Shelton's defense made for an exciting game. We made a push in the fourth quarter.
If we were forced into a half court game with them, we were in trouble. If our pressure doesn't work, we're in big trouble. We have to extend the court, and we couldn't tonight.
Dominique Pepe played a terrific game at point guard with four steals.
