Game 2: Marist

This was a much closer game than expected, with Duke again having a poor shooting night. Marist runs a type of Princeton offense which tends to slow games down, resulting in a much slower pace of 68.5 possessions in the game. (This strategy did backfire a few times, as the Crazies' countdowns convinced Marist to take desperation shots thinking the buzzer was about to sound.)

Individually Carrem Gay had another good night, notching her first ever double-double with 14 and 10. And Bales bounced back with 12 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 blocks. She was hampered by foul trouble though, and only played 19 minutes.

On offense Duke only shot 42% from the field, 27% from three, and a horrible 57% from the line. They did manage a little better on assisted baskets, with 60% of their baskets assisted, but they still took a lot of difficult shots early in the shot clock without setting up their offense.

Defensively they held Marist to 28% shooting, but only blocked 12% of their shot attempts and only managed 10 steals overall. Duke outrebounded Marist by 16, and did better on the defensive boards, corralling 78% as opposed to 43% of the O-boards.
