In their only exhibition of the 2009-10 basketball season the TexAnns take the floor at Wisdom Gym against the UT-Dallas Comets. The TexAnns will look to elevate their level of play as the they prepare for the start of the regular season. The TexAnns are led by their returning senior post JoAnne Jones. Last season Jones led the team in both scoring and rebounding by averaging 13.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.
Midway through the first half and it looks like both teams are trying to shake off some rust that has occurred throughout the offseason. The TexAnns hold a slight advantage at this point by the score of 19-14. The TexAnns have had open shots but are looking to get their feel back and have missed a couple of mid-range jumpers as well as a few easy ones in the paint. The defense, however, has been very aggressive and created plenty of turnovers which have led to a couple of fast break points. The outside shots havent quite been falling tonight as the TexAnns have gone 0-for-6 from outside the arc. Coach Hearne will surely look to improve on that total for the rest of the game.
The TexAnns really stepped up their game in the back end of that first half. The TexAnns have been pushing the ball up for the floor and being very aggressive offensively. This has given the TexAnns a 35-22 lead at the break. The outside shooting vastly improved as the girls went 3-for-4 from deep and the passing looked very crisp as the girls made smart decisions when getting the ball to their open teammates. The defense continued to be very stiff as they only allowed the Comets to score eight points in the last 10 minutes of the first half. The second half is coming up.
