Pitt put up a decent fight, but Candace Parker is too good. 30 and 12. "I really like her," said coach Berenato. "I want to get me one of her."

Still, there is reason to hope that Pitt is a rising star. "Tonight's going to be a wake-up call for a lot of people in terms of seeing this Pitt team against our team and seeing how Pitt performed," coach Summitt said.
