Didn't know much about Miami, but WOW! I like to watch the coaches on the sidelines. Miami's coach is extremely calm, and it seemed her team also was calm in pressure situations today. Congrats to Miami for their improved play as they come through the back half of the season!

Their center Hof was exceptional. She has really raised the level of her play. She was interviewed after the game. (Swedish Dutch). A real nice kid. Very charming.

Anigwe is now also #5 in Pac 12 history in rebounding. Passed Osahor (I'm really surprised she was that high on the list; she had a monster Sr. year but played sparingly early in her career).

UCLA went on a big run, up 39-30 approaching halftime.

Very nice kid. I've been following she and her fellow countryman, Laura Cornelius for 4 years. Shes' got the blonde hair, but she's Dutch, as is Cornelius.

Heck of a player, that Hof. She and Mompremier present quite a challenge as a 1-2 post punch.

And I've always, always been a fan of Katie Meier. Duke would be smart to bring their alum home, but Katie has set up her own shop in Coral Gables.

BTW, there is a very good Swedish player in the ACC, but she plays for Virginia Tech -- Regan Megarity, also a senior.

Wonder if Geno, based on the way those 2 played today, would like to have an 'Elligible' Courtney Ekmark and AEH on this year's team
Ugh. Really??

Geno must really think Griffin is special, after the experiences he had with Chong & AEH. Hope he's right. If I were him I'd have already been done with habitually underperforming Ossining players.

Iowa smokes Maryland. Megan Gustafson got loose on the turtles.

Sorry. Apparently I misheard the announcers. :oops:

UCLA was up 14 early in Q3, but Cal is storming back. On a 9-0 run and shooting an and-1 after the media TO.

Cal @ UCLA just getting going, important for both. UCLA needs a win to keep on ASU's tail for the #4 spot (and bye in the first round of the conference tourney), I honestly think Cal is close to finding themselves on the wrong side of the bubble. 10-5 Bruins, they're scorching the nets.
I agree that Cal is far from safe. I think they'd be in if the season ended today.

I'm trying to watch this game but I really can't take Tammy Blackburn's incessant babbling.

Someone noted Anriel Howard's return to Texas A&M today. I wasn't even thinking of it, Cal's Reece Caldwell starter her career at UCLA where today's game is being played.

Cal cut it to 1, UCLA went back up 8, back to 1 again at the end of Q3 Quite a battle going on.

Mute button! I guess I'm immune to her, she doesn't really get on my nerves like she does to you. I figure if I can listen to Bill Walton, I can handle ANYTHING.

UCLA up 1, final media TO. Strap in and hang on, this one should be an exciting finish.

Some interesting subplots I'd almost forgotten about in the Cal-UCLA game:

Recee Caldwell returns to UCLA, the school she transferred from after her freshman year (she was part of that #1 recruiting class of 2014 along with Canada, Billings, Drummer and Hayes).

Japreece Dean and Caldwell, who were teammates at Texas Tech, face off against each other.

I love subplots in WCBB

UCLA is such a hard team to root for. They make 1 great play and then 2 bonehead plays.
