Didn't mean to neglect Saturday's D2 championship: SDSU beat NKU 65-50 to win the title. Melissa Pater, after being snubbed for the All-American team, scored 22 in the finals. It was the Jackrabbits' first national title. The championship was a good game, but the moment that no one will forget was Cizek's last-second, deflected, banked 3 in the semis.

NKU Coach Winstel had tears of pride for her team despite the loss. Her senior class ended with an admirable 109-22 record.
