For those that know nothing about the women's college game, it is great.

 

It is what I recommend young girls and boys watch to see how to play the game since it is very close to the high school game in regards to format (they have quarters men's college is the only basketball organization in the world that uses halves instead of quarters) and play (not a lot of dunks). And they really know how to play.

 

Gone, however, are Caitlin Clark from Iowa and Angel Reese from LSU that was last year.

 

Unfortunately, gone too is JuJu Watkins from USC (you know her, "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.").

She tore her ACL in the Second Round.

 

So who is left.

 

The coaches you know: UConn's Geno Auriemma and South Carolina's Dawn Staley. You might recognize Texas's Vic Schaeffer, but you definitely do not remember his name.

 

The player you definitely heard of: UConn's Paige Bueckers. She's lights out!

 

The player you will know if not already: UCLA's Lauren Betts

 

The Final Four is tonight with the first game pitting (1) South Carolina vs (1) Texas at 7:00pm followed by (1) UCLA vs (2) UConn.

Both games are on ESPN.

 

Lights out, aha
Blast, blast, blast
