Five Down, One to Go

Tennessee 47 - LSU 46

Alexis Hornbuckle only scored 2 points last night, but they mattered the most. She put back a missed shot by Nicky Anosicke with 0.7 seconds left to give the Lady Vols the win. Next up for Tennessee...Stanford and an 8th national title. At least that's how I hope it turns out.

The game wasn't pretty, not by a long shot. But a win is a win, and I'll take it!

Halfway There

My girls are in the thick of things. After opening up with a 94-55 win over Oral Roberts, they sent Purdue packing 78-52. Last night, the Lady Vols played a sloppy first half and rode on Candice Parker's back as they beat Notre Dame 74-54.

Needless to say, there were times when the boss wasn't too happy.

After a few halftime adjustments, the Lady Vols played like the defending National Champions they are.

Alexis Hornbuckle going up for two.


When you've got a horse, you ride it, and Candice scored 34 last night.


When it comes down to crunch time it is all about attitude.


Three down, three to go. Next up for the Lady Vols, is Oklahoma State.

1 Down, 5 to Go

It's March Madness time, and it's aptly named. This past weekend featured upsets galore. On the men's side, West Virginia beat Duke, and Davidson beat mighty Georgetown. In the women's tournament Ohio State was upset by Florida State, and in a wild game, the Marist girls found themselves trailing 55-44 to DePaul with about ten minutes to go in the game. At that point they went on a 32-2 run and beat DePaul 76-57. Yeah, I spent a lot of time on the couch this past weekend watching basketball.

My Tennessee girls started tournament play last night in West Layfette, Indiana, beating Oral Roberts 94-55. Now, it's on to round 2 where they'll face Purdue. It takes six wins to bring home the title. One down, five to go for my girls. I also have a soft spot for the local teams as well, West Virginia beat New Mexico and Maryland beat Coppin State.

Happy Easter
