Cappie Pondexter returned to the court for the Scarlet Knights, and Rutgers came away with a huge win over Tennessee. Pondexter was a bit rusty trying to get herself back into the flow, and scored only 1 point, but her presence alone made a huge emotional difference to her team.

CVS said that Sunday's practice, when Cappie returned, was the best they've had. "Because of Cappie's presence, those were the toughest and most intense practices we've had. Matee (Ajavon) is calm because Cappie was out there telling her what to do."

freshmen Freshmen Essence Carson and Avajon both had huge games. "I think they're probably the best group of freshmen we've seen all year," Shanna Zolman said. "For them to come into this type of atmosphere and perform like they do, they're really talented."

Coach Summitt was simply frustrated with her team. "We weren't good in any aspect of our game tonight," she said. The Vols shot 28% from the floor.

Adam Zagoria reports that a bunch of WNBA scouts showed up to see Pondexter, and went away excited about all of the future talent on the floor. Said Blaze: "That bodes well for the future of our league, doesn't it?"
