More tourneys, and WNBA gearing up

UConn won the Big East tournament. And even though the conference is arguably the nation’s strongest, their win is no big surprise. They beat Notre Dame 73-64 to take their fourth consecutive title.

South Dakota state beat Oakland and took the Summit league championship for the third time in a row.

Arkansas-Little Rock beat Western Kentucky to grab the Sun Belt Conference title.

Coaching changes:

Cathy Andruzzi has resigned as Fordham’s head coach, “to pursue other interests.”

WNBA:

The new WNBA president will have a background in business, league officials say. But if they don’t want to put someone in place until early June, maybe they don’t really need one. Let’s save the salary and raise the player limit on each team instead.

The league has much planned for its fifteenth season this year.

Australian superstar Liz Cambage will enter the WNBA draft this year.
