I was so happy Duke lost 😅 As a Lady Vols fan they robbed me of a Holdsclaw 4th title. Should've been the rematch of Tennessee vs Purdue in the finals.
Side note.. Pat Summit was the USA Olympic Women's basketball coach in '84 and she and Cheryl Miller didn't get along, Summit thought Miller was too flashy and Miller said it was personal because USC Women's Basketball team beat Tennessee in the 84 Finals coached by Summit.
I’ve been watching Women’s Basketball since the early 90’s. Kristin Folkl is my all time favorite player. A joy to watch, fundamentally sound, great rebounder and shooter. Unfortunately poor officiating cost Stanford this game.
Oh but what was Sue Bird crying about when UConn got called for a moving pick late in a close game. Something about calling it at that point in a game. That pick against Iowa was way worse than Cathching’s pick here.
Sad how the power 6 ACC, BIG TEN, BIG EAST, BIG 12, PAC-12, and SEC with the money tv deals endorsements ads and what not took over the game the votes from the NCAA. La Tech used to be a powerful program beating teams from those 6 conferences regularly Old Dominion they were in the mix and Western Kentucky I don't know how many people remember them they and La Tech with Old Dominion could play with and beat anybody.
I was at this game during my sophomore year at Notre Dame. I was not one of the people storming the court, however, as I was sitting with family members and not in the student section.
