By itself, I didn't think it was a flagrant foul but I haven't watched much of this game.

This has frequently been the case over the past two decades. The top team is far better than the rest of the competition and it makes for an anti-climatic finish to the season. How many something and 0 teams have there been in the last 20 years in the women's game?

Except that this is totally inaccurate in regards to this year. The top team all season was Baylor, the defending champion, who was beaten in the sweet 16.

And then the UConn beat a ND team that they were 0-3 against this season.

The announcers are killing me. I thought it was a good patient whistle before they went F1. You can always upgrade but you can't downgrade. Thought it was a good F1.

100% agreed.

I've personally seen female officials selected over more deserving male counterparts at both the HS and college levels for no other reason than their gender. It happens and it is wrong.

Hey, they might have made a bad call but at least they were consistent about it...

You specifically referenced this game. What does what you personally have witnessed in your corner of the world have to do with Pantoja, Mattingly, and Brooks?

I've seen white officials picked over more deserving black officials in my corner of the world. Does that mean Higgins, Cahill, Hess, etc didn't deserve their assignments? For a lawyer you sure do make some illogical and baseless statements.

And who the f**k are you to say who should or shouldn't be moderating?

Exactly. I love when a certain group that has always been getting the opportunities are finally shut out and all of a sudden there is some "reverse discrimination." What was it when no Blacks or Women ever worked those games? And heck I still see an entire staff in many conferences that look nothing like the players, but if people were to cry discrimination there they would be wrong?

Probably. I know I did not see a minute of the game. And if no one is talking about the game and other issues, there you go.

Peace

Flipped to the game every now and then...saw it was a blowout. Kept it on the channel for the final 8 of the game.

I was working and while I could watch the men's game last night because it was streaming online, the women's game was not, so i only got to listen to the radio version, wasn't very exciting just to listen to.

Just a point of information: Yes, all three officials for the D1 champioship were female both this year and last. Also, 7 of the 9 officials on the court in the D1, 2 and 3 title games this season were female. However...last season 5 of the 9 officials on the court for those games were men, including an all-male crew in the D3 championship game.
