Down 34-27 at the half awful D Hampton as bad as they r supposed to be look like the best team in the league. We turned the ball over 16X in the half and they scored 17 points of these turnovers. A lot of these turnovers unforced and live ball. Emma 3 turnovers but 10 points, Baker 3 turnovers 0 points in 5 minutes no way she should be on the floor also 3 turnovers for Carter with 0 points. Pathetic! Sorelle playing well 7 points no turnovers. I'm starting to believe that we're the worst team in this league after this half. I can't believe what I'm seeing.

Just like last quarter they turn the ball over and then foul. 3 fouls in about 1 minute of the 4th.

We lose 67-62 after we go on a rampage score 8 points in about 30 seconds. Two three's by Emma and some good passing getting us an easy bucket underneath but as fierce a comeback as we had we continue to make STUPID turnovers, Baker a bad turnover when we were only down 4. If we were able to have this run with about 4 minutes left why didn't we do this earlier. Pretty much one of the worst games I've ever seen this team play. This team needs a major shakeup maybe coaching needs a major shakeup but anyone interested in any way watching this team would not believe how bad we played against one of the worst teams in this league. 33 turnovers 7 for Carter who had 1 point in 21 minutes. Baker with 4 playing 11 minutes with 2 points. Emma 5 playing 36 minutes and the leading scorer in the game with 18 points. I'm perplexed as to why Ineza didn't get more minutes(17) she was playing far better then anyone on this court with the exception of Emma. Nine points and only 1 turnover. Awful game for us!!

Post presser Coach Atkinson is running out of excuses as to why this team loses and continues to say we need to fix this and fix that after playing 18 games this year. We're wasting a major talent in Emma Von-Essen who game in and game out tries to carry this team but not getting enough support. It's clear that this team doesn't know how to win. They're to used to losing and that culture needs to be changed. They're complacent with throwing the ball away bad passes just making bad decisions. We lead in every offensive category out rebounded this team big time but give them points in bunches off of our turnovers some forced a lot unforced.

I know there are plenty of gaff moments in this game but down 4 points we're inbounding the ball under Hamptons basket probably under a minute to play and Bryant passes the ball to a Hampton player who just walks in for an easy layup. Couldn't believe what I just saw I wondered to myself did she forget what team she was playing for?? This wasn't the only major gaff in this comedy of errors.

Yes I do for sure but this team has some decent players and some size. Statistically we're pretty good on paper. We went into this game turning it over 17X a game generally the 15 mark is acceptable but 33 that's is just a pathetic effort from this bunch. Coach Atkinson's soft style is just not working. I think we need more of a feisty demeanor from her but how is she supposed to flip that switch on now.

We play SB tonight and this will probably be the payback after our men's team squeaked out a last second win last night. SB is 16-2 overall and 6-1 in league play. Their only loss was to Campbell in O/T after they had beaten them early in the season by 30 points. Our only hope here is to keep our turnovers to a minimum(GOOD LUCK) and to play shutdown D. This will be a very difficult game for us to win.

Close game at half. Hanging tough. Only 7 TOs in the first half. Need to move the ball more to find better looks. Defense pretty good so far

Not so much in the 2nd half. TOS go up, defense goes down.

Emma with a very off night unfortunately. No one shot well.

Yeah Pride we all know when Emma is off they have no chance to win. Only committed 17 turn overs in the game same as S.B. but SB shot 48% from 2 and 39% from three. We shot 33% from 2 and 11% from three. Emma scored 5 points on 2-14 1-11. Kudos to the rest of the team for playing tough Ineza with 12 points on 6-15 0-2.Swint with 8 points and 8 rebounds 7 boards for Anya and 5 points. If Emma has a normal type game this would have been very competitive. They played her tough but she missed shots she normally would make. SB 7-1 WE'RE 1-7. Brutal!

We play Delaware today who's 3-5 in the conference and 7-13 overall. Once again I'll state the obvious that this is a very winnable game we need to put it all together and play 40 minutes. Limit our turnovers out rebound them and get some scoring.

Tuned in to see how Jacco is doing on the broadcast.

Hofstra up 21-20 after the 1st but, yikes, nine TOs in that quarter, so committing almost one a minute.
