re: Alright Mulkey and Starkey, draw up something to try and contain Clark

The best plan will be to stop everyone else. She’s going to get hers.

I agree. Cover that other sharp shooter Warnock that gets most of her passes from Clark AND stop the big blond center on her pick n rolls to the basket that gets all of her passes from Clark. What they said last night, the big gal had her first ONE DRIBBLE all tournament last night.... WOW

Use a combination of these: Keep changing so they cannot figure it out. I would use the following 4-5 defenses, and sprinkle man from them during the same possession at times to totally confuse them. We need to play chess not checkers.

1-1-3 match up zone (But remember man to man principles)

2-1-2 match up zone (But remember man to man principles) as an effective T-Match up zone defense run well will look like a zone with many man to man action, and the low post guy on the right side has a wide variety of responsibility on the whole baseline.

Box & 1

2-2-1

Triangle & 2

Also, when they do go man, play a defender against her who stays on her at all times and does not help out, unless its a potential layup. Also, whoever is the worst player/shooter on Iowa, then play way off that player to help double team Clark or go take a charge of the big blond on the screen n rolls.
