Jillian said, "People are still learning their roles and picking their spots. I think it's coming along."
It came along very nicely in the Cardinal's 84-46 win over the New Mexico Lobos. Jillian led five committee members in double figures with 13 points.
JJ is back. She played 11 minutes, hit three three-pointers, and ended up with 12 points. Tara said, "Having JJ back really changes our team. "She gives us great stability with her experience, her poise." JJ said, "It was so nice to play. It was killing me sitting on the bench."
The perimeter shooting is back. The Cardinal swished 12 of 27 three-pointers: four from Lindy (who earned her first start and played 19 minutes), four from Jeanette, three from JJ and one from Ros.
The defense is back. The Cardinal held the Lobos to 27% shooting and out-rebounded them 47 - 35. Jayne was double-teamed almost every time she got the ball, so turned her attention to finding her teammates. She dished out seven assists to go with 10 rebounds, two blocks and a steal. Nneka added eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and 11 points.
