Duke ruled the first half but couldn't keep Tennessee off the glass in the second. With 22 seconds to play, CP3 broke a tie with a picture-perfect layup, and Pat Summitt's team improved to 18-1-- the first time she's beaten Duke since 2004, and the first home loss in Cameron since '06.
Both teams played fast; both teams looked frustrated at times. "The basketball gods said 'No, not tonight,'" coach P concluded. "Not if you're going to rebound like that."
Voepel says while we were all watching Parker (as usual), Tennessee's rookie guards, Angie Bjorklund and Vicki Baugh, made the difference. "It was a fun environment," Bjorklund said of the famously Crazy Duke floor.
Also of concern for the Blue Devils: an elite team should be able to make their free throws. The home team shot 7-12 from the line; the visitors, 17-22.
