Grizzlies (2-2) to 4-10 shooting. The Tiger lead grew to 40-26 by halftime, and FHSU didn\u2019t let up coming out of the locker room. They shot 6-11 overall, went a perfect 3-3 from beyond the arc and 11-11 from the free throw line in the third quarter to go up 66-37. ASU outscored the Tigers 15-11 in the final 10 minutes, but the damage was already done.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think we really showed how to start a game and how to finish a game,\u201d senior guard Kate Dilsaver said. \u201cI think all four quarters we were really into it and we never let them get into the game. We\u2019ll take away that we have to start fast and never let teams get into the game and that helps tremendously.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tigers return to Gross Memorial Coliseum tonight against MSU Denver, with a focus on fewer turnovers after giving away 24 against the Grizzlies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFirst home game nerves are kind of set aside,\u201d graduate student Katie DeGarmo said. \u201cI\u2019m really proud of us for working together as a team, but being able to take care of the ball and making smarter passes is going to be a big key for us going into tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to shooting well, FHSU also made up for their turnovers by dominating the glass, pulling down 43 rebounds compared to ASU\u2019s 19. The Tigers scored 10 points off of 11 offensive rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI thought we took care of the ball better than we did last week against the press,\u201d said FHSU Head Coach Talia Kahrs. \u201cI was still disappointed with our turnovers, but we rebounded the ball really really well, which was another focus we had, and we figured out how to score against a defense that\u2019s tough.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Four Tigers scored in double digits, led by DeGarmo who had 19 points and recorded 10 rebounds. Though last year was her fourth at FHSU, she gained an extra year of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI just love basketball,\u201d she said. \u201cThis place means a lot to me and I just wasn\u2019t ready to be done yet. It was a blessing that COVID gave me the ability to have another year of basketball, and so as long as my body\u2019s able to do it I want to keep playing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dilsaver was next for the Tigers with 15 points for the second time this season, when last year she scored in double digits just four times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBrooke (Loewe) does a really good job of running our point,\u201d Dilsaver said. \u201cI like to run the floor and she finds me. Who doesn\u2019t like to run the floor and get layups? Getting some easy layups at the beginning helps me see it go through and gain confidence. I\u2019ve been here long enough I know what\u2019s a good shot for me and what\u2019s not, so I\u2019m really able to take those opportunities that I know I can convert on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olivia Hollenbeck and Talexa Weeter rounded out FHSU\u2019s top scorers with 12 and 11 points, while also grabbing six and five rebounds. Loewe led the team with six assists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kiiyani Anitielu led ASU with 18 points. The Tigers held the Grizzlies to 37% shooting from the field and caused 20 turnovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe commit to effort on defense, same with rebounding,\u201d Kahrs said \u201cIt has nothing to do with our ability to be quick. It\u2019s about effort, and the girls have really bought into that. We\u2019re starting to get the hang of it with the new kids sprinkled in there on playing good team defense.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seven of Kahrs\u2019 players have been in the program for 3-5 years. The success they\u2019ve had in that time and their returning experience led to being picked first in the preseason MIAA media poll and second in the coaches poll.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt helps our team chemistry,\u201d Dilsaver said. \u201cA lot of us have been together for a long time and we know what we\u2019re doing so it takes some of that stuff out of the way. We can focus on the little details and step our game up because we\u2019ve all been here.
