A Great Day for My Basketball Teams
The Huskies (unsurprisingly) beat the Cardinals.
The Huskies (VERY surprisingly) beat the Cardinal.
UConn whupped Louisville, as everyone outside of Kentucky expected.
Washington held on to beat Stanford, which no one -- even those of us who root for UW -- expected. Hoped? Sure. Expected? No way.
UW freshman Kelsey Plum had a great game, and people definitely noticed. From twitter:
Rebecca Lobo: Kelsey Plum #ThatIsAll
Swin Cash: Her personality matches her game. Gotta love it!
Rebecca Lobo: Wow... fun player to watch!
LaChina Robinson: And looks like the girl next door!
Cindy Brunson: And a leader too. Named captain as a freshman. KP is the total package.
UW had the lead for most of the game, and a sizeable lead near the end. But Stanford starting fouling early, and Washington didn't make as many of the free throws as they should have, and it ended up being very close. But they held out and celebrated beating the #3 ranked Stanford.
The best part? Stanford has two losses this year: to the UConn Huskies and the Washington Huskies. I'm guessing Stanford is hoping they won't have to face Houston Baptist or Northeastern in the NCAA tournament.
