Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Saturday, November 25, 2006

Parker dunked again as the Lady Vols canned Stanford in Tennessee.

The folks in orange completely shut down Smith and Newlin, who combined to shoot three for ten (and no free throws); Stanford frosh Jayne Appel, though, racked up 23 to Parker's 25. The home team pulled away after the break.

The Cardinal haven't beaten Tennessee in the last ten years. Voepel says the game proved Stanford good and Tennessee better, and proved that Parker "is completely in charge."

Stanford's coach TV: "We could stop the losing streak if we didn't want to schedule them... We played them tough. But we didn't play them as tough as we wanted to."
