Trailing against Oklahoma throughout the game at the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in the Bahamas, the #9 Duck women's basketball team pulled out a 98-93 win. Most likely that will pit them against #1, South Carolina, tomorrow. Down nine at half, and seven at the third quarter break, some really hard play made the difference. Nyra Sabally, 30 points, and Maddie Scherr played much of the 4th quarter with four fouls. Crucial for the win was a drive by Scherr ending in a collision with an Oklahoma defender that the officials called a charge. Coach Graves was right on them, insisting the defender was in the zone. The officials checked the monitor and reversed the call. Scherr made both free throws, putting OBD up by four at 88-84. Lots of free throws by Sabally (2), and Sedona Prince (3-4) later on Oklahoma fouls to save time sealed the win. Time for football. More later. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandpa Duck Author No. 3 Share Posted November 21, 2021 On reading the above to my beloved spouse, she suggested an edit. Scherr’s collision was “. . . in the arc.”, not in the zone. I need lots of help. Fortunately, it is close at hand. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
