Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, June 22, 2006

Erin Buescher continued to make a case for the Most Improved Player award and was unstoppable (along with Yolanda Griffith) as the Monarchs won 75-69 over the Silver Stars. It was the first road loss of the year for SASS.

The Monarchs inside duo combined for 11-15 from the floor, 12 rebounds and 4 blocked shots. Even though SASS came in aware of Buescher, Dan Hughes said his team did not do a good job on her.

While Rebeekah Brunson has struggled and Nicole Powell has been inconsistent, Buescher is having her best season. "What can you say about (Buescher)?" Ticha Penicheiro said. "I think she's having a tremendous season." Just don't tell Buescher that.
