Ejim might be undersized, but I don't see how you can say she isn't a true post presence. She's been dominant all year. Hollingsworth and Huijbens combine for about 17 pts/11 rebs per game and are both listed at 6-3. I don't see lack of post presence as a problem for this team. They don't block a lot of shots, but you don't have to have that to be good defensively.If this team had a true post presence, they would be competing for a national championship.
They definitely have some solid players in the post but I'm thinking a 6'6 big that can control the paint. With someone like that, I think this team could contend with anyone in the country.Ejim might be undersized, but I don't see how you can say she isn't a true post presence.

How many players like that are there? Cardoso, Betts, Lee, Kitley...anybody else? Not enough to go around, and some Championship contenders don't have that.They definitely have some solid players in the post but I'm thinking a 6'6 big that can control the paint.

After I posted that, I thought the same thing....lol. There are a lot of teams that are a 6'6 post player away from being a true contender for a national championship.....UCONN is one of them.How many players like that are there?

Yeah, what team wouldn't want that?After I posted that, I thought the same thing....lol. There are a lot of teams that are a 6'6 post player away from being a true contender for a national championship.....UCONN is one of them.
And it’s not like the committee members were all distracted by Caitlin scoring 70 today . Ouch!Holy crap. They beat them by 50 two weeks ago.
Gonzaga hosting position becomes very precarious. And the loss isn’t even to Santa Clara.
Their saving grace may be that all the teams vying for 4 seeds have bad losses since the last reveal. But none are this bad.
FWIW they interviewed Creme during the first half of the game, and he opined that Gonzaga would likely host even with a loss. I'm not so certain.Holy crap. They beat them by 50 two weeks ago.

Yeah, but they’ll have home court for the sweet 16.Meanwhile Portland wins a trip to Corvallis.
