They were right there for making the final four. This is the first time OSU has not ended the deep tournament in a blowout against a top seed tournament (I guess we'll see if this indeed is the best team). Even though the 2016 team made the final four, this feels like the team that was the closest team to a title Rueck has had, mainly because there's not a team like the 2016 UConn team (an experienced team loaded with future WNBA stars) in the tournament.

Yes, but were also beaten by 29 by the eventual champion; they were close relative to the field, but not to the champion.

Did anyone notice if Greg Street was on that officiating crew?

Has she shot well in any of the Tourney games? No No time to pick out one player as the shooting drop was pretty much team wide. TVO was 5/11 from 3 vs Nebraska when OSU needed them. Also without researching the actual data I'm guessing shooting % drop one teams move into the larger arena. The shooting backdrops are dramatically different and distant.

2016 team ended the season ranked #2 in the polls. Yes, but were also beaten by 29 by the eventual champion; they were close relative to the field, but not to the champion. Nobody was close to that team; probably the greatest college WBB team of all time. Every starter was a first-round WNBA draft pick. Had we drawn Syracuse or Washington instead, we would have played for the NCAA title. And lost by 25-30 points.

So proud of these girls!
I didn't get to see whole thing......I did see that 3rd "foul" on Beers. I hope that ref gets a pay cut.

Need to meet the team upon their return to Gill. Anyone have flight information. They deserve a huge welcome and thank you party Damn right they do!!! 40 minutes ago the Pure Orange message board said they're chartering a flight back to Eugene. Don't have the details on when they're landing yet.
