Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, December 10, 2007

Wyoming, who lost to Colorado unexpectedly last week, yesterday got past the Hawkeyes in Iowa. The home team took a late lead, ran out of gas with three minutes left, fell behind, and then chose not to foul for 24 crucial seconds near the end.

"Everything was in our hands and we gave it back," coach Bluder complained. Kristi Smith, usually the Hawks' best outside shooter, had an atrocious outing (3-13); the Cowgirls' Podziemska, by contrast, went 4-8 from downtown.
