11:27 OU 57-30

Sharane hit her first three of the year. Portia also hit a three, has eleven points, seven rebounds.

OU is ten of twenty-one from three. Northridge is supposed to be a three-point shooting team. They are 2 of 12. Just hit a three, 3 of 13.

This team, as Traveler said, did beat UCLA?

... This team, as Traveler said, did beat UCLA?

Sherri is getting "the Eight" to play aggressive, and to play with more teamwork at both ends.

Like the rebounding. Like to see 'em knock down open shots.

Foul trouble will be remain an issue all season.
