Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Sunday, January 22, 2006

Gopher starter (and Minnesota native) April Calhoun transferred to Minnesota after two years at Iowa. Because she transferred within the Big Ten conference, she's attending Minnesota without a scholarship.

This afternoon Calhoun's Gophers visit her former team in a regionally televised matchup.

Calhoun: "I'm excited to see some of the old places I used to go, to play at Carver-Hawkeye again... I'm expecting some boos. They'll put a smile on my face. When I decided to transfer, I was hoping I'd leave college basketball feeling it was a positive experience. When I do leave now, I will have accomplished that. Coming back home to play, I wouldn't have traded that for anything."
