Rice was no match for Brittney Griner's 35 points |
The
Ladies only had two ranked games in action last night in Women’s College
Basketball as 3rd ranked Baylor simply befuddled and
blasted
Rice 89-49 as Brittney Griner made the nets sizzle with a season high of 35 points and 24th
ranked Iowa State literally smoked, literally smothered, and literally smacked Drake
upside the
head 87-45 as Hallie
Christofferson poured in a double-double of 20 points and 10 boards and for
some unranked scores, South Carolina State in the MEAC pummeled South Wesleyan 94-46
and in the SWAC, Mississippi Valley State lost by a couple points to Ole Miss
62-60, Tennessee Tech crushed Alcorn State 74-57 to keep them
winless thus far this season and Grambling State was pasted by Wichita State 62-44 as
they also remain without a win.

Cody Zeller and the Hoosiers ran the Tar Heels out of the gym! |
The
men in college basketball on the other hand had four games that tipped off last
night as the top ranked team in the land in Indiana totally manhandled 14th ranked North Carolina 83-59 in
the ACC/Big Ten Challenge as Cody Zeller led all scorers with 20 points, 3rd
ranked Michigan outlasted
18th ranked North Carolina State 79-72 with 11 assists and 18 points
from Trey Burke, double overtime was needed to settle the score between Texas
Southern and 19th ranked Colorado as the Buffalos avoided the upset
and remain undefeated with the 85-80 win over the Tigers with 24 points from
Spencer Dinwiddle and #21 Minnesota defeated Florida State 77-68 with 16 points
from Joe Coleman.

The Father of the MLBPA, Marvin Miller passes at the age of 95 |
In
sporting news, you would think the man known as ‘The Father of the MLBPA’ would
have his named enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame, but if you know
baseball, you would know better. Marvin
Miller, former executive director of the player’s union passed away at the
tender age of 95 as his Manhattan home yesterday. Miller was largely responsible for athletes
becoming millionaires as he led baseball players in a series of strikes and
legal battles that won free agency.
Under his leadership, he would not only revolutionize baseball, but the
entire sports world as he changed the business of sports and according to
former baseball commissioner Fay Vincent, he “emancipated the baseball player
and in the process, all professional athletes.”
Miller led the first walk out in 1972 and under his leadership; Major
League Baseball witnessed revenue skyrocketing from $50 million in 1967 to well
over $7 billion dollars today. However,
with all his accomplishments not only in game of baseball, but with other
sports that benefited from his pioneering efforts, baseball’s Hall of Fame has
shut the door on him. Rest in peace
Marvin and perhaps the Hall of Fame will finally give you your flowers that you
well deserve.
