Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, December 08, 2005

Stony Brook upset Temple in a thriller on Long Island. Owls All-American Candice Dupree lit up with 23 points and 16 boards, but her team turned the ball over 23 times and made just 7 of 18 free throws. Temple's Kamesha Hairston nearly managed a comeback anyway.

Coach Dawn Staley's squad has now lost two one-possession games in a row. The win belongs to ex-Monarchs (and ex-ABL Long Beach Stingrays) coach Maura McHugh, whose Seawolves had never played (much less beaten) a ranked team.
