The bench and head coach Brenda Friese react after Kristi Toliver (#20) hits a last second 3-pointer to send the game into overtime.



With no seniors, and only one Junior, Maryland will be the favorite to repeat. Can you say "Dynasty", boys and girls!

Yay! (And also, I'm extremely pleased that the only #2 seed in the Final Four won it all.)

I didn't watch the game; how was it? That last bit must have been fun.

(Have I mentioned to you ever my fondness for Maryland's mascot? I love Terrapins.)

Yay Maryland! I'm a Connecticut fan myself, but I was happy to see Duke get beat.

Yay! Even though I freakin' hate your black uniforms! But this was pretty sweet. Your ladies played hard. You guys also totally have Carolina's number. Our only two losses of the year were to Maryland! Crazy!
