Before losing in overtime to Illinois last night, Penn State suffered another blow. The team announced that Adrienne Squire has left the team. The junior was a starter and third leading scorer.

While Squire did not return to campus after Christmas, she is expected to return in the second semester as a student at PSU.

No other member of Squire's freshman class are still with the team. Lisa Etienne left at the end of the 2004-05 season with Jen Harris and Amber Bland. She is now a starter for Hartford and was interviewed by Lori Riley of the Courant. After PSU's loss to Liberty in the NCAA tournament, Etienne recalls that Rene Portland blamed the loss on everything from socks to study hall.

Etienne's team will try to end their two game losing streak against UConn tonight.
