Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Wednesday, January 23, 2008

Also over at ESPN.com, Mechelle writes about Kristi Toliver:
It seemed as fanciful as the notion of Peter Pan losing his shadow. How could Kristi Toliver's mojo have gone missing?
Voepel also wrote about one of Charlie's surprises, the revival of the Dayton Flyers, and acknowledges her streak-breaking power. After some very cool back story, she writes:
Which brings us to the Flyers' current season, where they were riding a 16-game winning streak entering Saturday's game at Duquesne.

In the "it figures" category, I wrote about the Flyers, filed the piece … and they promptly lost to Duquesne. It was "upset day" in the Atlantic-10, as George Washington was upended by Temple.

Anyway, even though Dayton's streak is over, it's worth taking a look at how it began and what's going with women's hoops in the Wright brothers' hometown.
