No need for April Fool’s pranks today–Washington has cornered that market. On to other things.
In sports, the longest winning streak in college sports came to a surprising end last night when Mississippi State’s Women’s Basketball Team beat the University of Connecticut’s team, in overtime. Until last night, the UConn women had won 111 games in a row. The game was one of two played in the Women’s NCAA Final Four championship series and sends the Miss State team into the finals against the South Carolina women’s team, who beat Stanford in the other Final Four game (South Carolina’s men’s team plays Gonzaga today in the first game of the Men’s Final Four–they’re having quite a basketball year at South Carolina). The other men’s final four game is North Carolina vs. Oregon. How’s your bracket?
