Milestones

Earlier this week, Storm veteran forward Tina Thompson put up her 7,000th point. Last night, her all-star teammate Lauren Jackson hit a milestone of her own, crossing the 6,000-point mark in Seattle's win over the Silver Stars.

Put those two together and it's 13,000 points.....amazing.

Also last night, the Lynx whooped the Mercury, 89-66. Phoenix has now tied their franchise record for most losses, with 26. Yikes.

In another losing milestone, the Mystics dropped their 12th straight in a 66-53 Fever win. Fire Trudi Lacey! It's shameful that Washington hasn't done so already.

Today the Mystics will be put out of their pain, playing their last season game at Chicago. This will be Ticha Penicheiro's last game.

Tulsa is at New York.

Other WNBA:

Ticha Penicheiro has left a huge mark on the WNBA.

NCAA:

Notre Dame recruits are embracing the school's move to the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Toledo freshman Cat Wells has been suspended from the team indefinitely for breaking team rules.

Nice to see that PHX held their beating to only 23 points for their final game although I imagine some pro gamblers are unhappy about it.

I wonder:

Will ESPN2 insist that all UConn grads play on TV today?

Is "We're Not Finished!" strictly the Storm's playoff slogan or is all of the WNBA obliged to use it? It's a rather mild pledge.
