Point guard Shannon Shonrock is an occasional liability for the Gophers. Last year against Texas in the tournament, Jamie Carey tore her up.

Last night, Creighton was getting to Shonrock with its aggressive press. So the Gophers sent Shaq McCarville into the back court to set some picks and bust some heads. The press pretty much fell apart after that.

Said McCarville: "I'm sure every time the girl went up to guard her again, she had in the back of her mind I might be there."
