Very solid game for the Vols. As expected, they were dominant inside, with a 41-27 rebounding edge. Gwen Jackson was amazing, with 25 and 15. Brittany Jackson had huge plays in the second half.
It was a sad game for Duke. Much of the time, it looked like Beard (who ended up with more than half of their points) was playing alone out there. Tillis played poorly. Mosch was the only other player in double figures. Bass, Krapohl, Harding, Whitley, and Matyasovsky contributed very little on the offensive end.
Coach Summitt got the team exactly where it needed to be at the most important time of the season. As usual in the Final Four, senior leadership means a lot. Lawson and Jackson are driven. They'll be hard to stop.
