Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, December 13, 2004

Yesterday's other games were mostly blowouts.

#2 Stanford, again led by Candice Wiggins, crushed USF. Coach TV didn't enjoy beating up on her younger sister Heidi, an assistant for the Dons. "I'd rather be coaching on the same bench with her, to be honest," Tara said. "It's no fun to play friends and family. You always end up feeling worse for them than feeling good for yourself."

The Falwell Flames proved no match for #3 Duke. "We needed to start well, and we didn't, and consequently we got in trouble very early," Liberty coach Carey Green said.

#7 UNC beat up Coastal Carolina. Freshman Erlana Larkins had 17 and 7 in her first start.

#11 Vandy got back on track by beating St. Louis.

#13 Texas Tech thumped Ole Miss despite zero points from Grant and Greenwalt.

Erin Lawless had 26 to lead #19 Purdue over W. Michigan.

#21 Maryland took a huge early lead over Monmouth and never looked back.
