MAVERICKS V GLASGOW WILDCATS

Wild on Court!

26th March 2010
Result 46 - 33

Another full house at the University of Hertfordshire’s Sports Village saw Hertfordshire Mavericks take on the Wildcats. The team continued their tight team defensive play as the Wildcats were forced to pass back on numerous occasions but Mavericks could not replicate the discipline that they showed in their match against Bath earlier on in the week and there were too many errors giving the visitors the ball too many times.

Fortunately the Mavericks mid courters combined well with Hutchinson and Schofield and turnovers were numerous. 15 shooting opportunities to the visitors 6 gave the home side a dominating start but the coaching team knew it should have been significantly wider. 5 uncontested goals to Hertfordshire Mavericks at the beginning of the second quarter was a credit to some quick fast surges through the court. Hutchinson was tipping and driving the ball through from the back but unfortunately in one extended move she hit the deck and a knee injury caused her to be replaced with Naomi Stenhouse at GK . This stoppage gave the visitors time to settle and they fought back to contest and win balls that meant at half time the score was 19-11.

Sophia Candappa made her debut at WA and Wood and Schmidt came on in the GA and WD spot. Candappa showed no nerves and some strong centre passes combined with dominating runs by Wood enabled this quarter to give the home side 20 opportunities; however the team defence was not as dominant and Wildcats were given too many shots to take. A switch in the centre court for the final quarter completed the match and a 46-33 win.

This was not a game that Hertfordshire Mavericks will be pleased with; a stop start game that just did not allow the home squad to get into fourth gear but 2 points and now the squad prepare for the Loughborough Lightning game on Monday 29th March.
