Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, December 11, 2003

BC just joined the AP poll this week... and then lost to GW last night.

It was a great game, decided in OT. Marsheik Witherspoon was the hero -- she made a layup with 11 seconds left to put GW ahead, then grabbed a loose ball to keep BC from getting the game back.

"Coach drew up the play, and I'm thinking, 'Okay, I'm going to run this play,' " Witherspoon said. "But then, I was thinking, 'I know they're not going to play me because they weren't playing me the whole game.' I was wide open. I was like, 'What the heck, I'll take it.' I better make it, and I made it."
