Minnesota tore up Illinois at Williams today. Angelina Williams (no relation) is a special basketball talent. Today wasn't a great day for her -- she disappeared for a big stretch, she did not seem to be getting along with her coach (who said after the game that Angelina didn't step up), and she did not score many of her points till the garbage minutes against the end of our bench.
Still, she did some things I haven't seen anyone other than Augustus do all year. She is a player who could do some damage at the next level, but she may suffer for lack of exposure.
The Gophers, led by the underappreciated Kelly Roysland with 19 off the bench, had their best offensive game of the year. "Everyone stepped up and hit shots," Roysland said. "It was a fun game for all of us."
"We need to do a better job of listening to our scouts," Illinois coach Theresa Grentz said. "We knew what Roysland could do."
