Katie Collier made the team while undergoing treatment for leukemia.

Four California players and one from Washington on the All-American teams, and the West coast still gets no love.

Analyst Carolyn Peck set off Stanford Coach Tara VanDerveer with her assertion that #5 Duke might be one of the four top seeds in the NCAA Tournament instead of the #4 Cardinal. Now there is a Pac-12-vs-ACC twitter war going on. Peck just tweeted a friend of mine:

VanDerveer is also hitting the airwaves. I've tweeted some of her statements at twitter.com/hoopism
