Chiney showed her immaturity in the game, esp. with fouls #2 and #5. Why was Stanford fouling in the last 90 seconds? But I trust she\'ll learn.
I hope that Tara will learn too. I\'m sure the other teams will learn from this one. Thankfully, UCLA didn\'t have the 3pt shooters as well.
As for seeding of the four #1s, consider that UConn beat Baylor who beat Tenn who beat Stanford who beat UConn. I\'m sure they will line up the teams that haven\'t played each other. So the semis should be Stanford-Baylor and UConn-Tenn.
Based on the committee\'s past performance, I wouldn\'t be surprised if they seed teams so DePaul is in Stanford\'s regional. I bet UCLA and Xavier will not be. It would make more sense to put A&M or Duke against Stanford. On second thought, I\'ll bet they wind up putting two of those (DePaul &, say, A&M) in our path to the final four.
Don\'t forget that UConn had a challenge from then #7/#8 Notre Dame, and wound up winning by 9 pts also. UConn was playing at Hartford, not at North Bend, while Stanford was playing at LA, not Stanford. (But, as we know, there was no home crowd for UCLA. Attendance was 2618.)
By the way, in case someone on the team or staff sees this, I noticed that UConn\'s center Dolson has a problem with the midcourt line when being used to break a press. If Stanford pulls out a press against them, I\'d suggest putting someone on her with then intent of getting a stumbling back court call.
