Katie Gearlds wants her team to play fast. That's been the goal since the offseason for Purdue women's basketball. Through two games, the Boilermakers have tried to push the tempo, but there's still plenty of room for improvement.
Purdue goes on the road this week, playing Purdue-Fort Wayne on Wednesday. After a 2-0 start to the year, Gearlds has liked what she's seen, but says her team still has learn to play fast without making mistakes.
"I still think we have to be intentional about playing faster, making sure we're taking the right shots," Gearlds said on Tuesday. "With playing faster comes some sloppy play or trying to get the ball in the right person's hands, that kind of thing. We have to learn through that, play through that."
