Stephanie White is one of those silent but deadly people. She just does so many things off the ball. She's in the passing lanes, she's physical. Her stroke wasn't dropping a little bit tonight, but she created a lot of their offense. She had gears I don't think we had.
Great guards make such a difference.
They never gave the ball to their post players where they couldn't do something with it. The Boilermakers actually turned the defensive tables on OSU, chasing point guard Jamie Lewis all over the floor and forcing the Buckeyes to rush their half-court offense. The tactic helped Purdue hold Larecha Jones and Marrita Porter to 13 and 12 points, respectively. They're really physical out on the wings. That's the part of being short.
