Brittney Griner tops Baylor blocks record

Entering her sophomore year, after only 41 games, Brittney Griner became Baylor's blocks leader tonight. Griner put up 27 points and had three blocks in the Bears' win over Texas Southern. The previous record was 249 blocks, which took her predecessor over twice as long to achieve. Baylor Coach Kim Mulkey said Griner "has a knack for timing it just right" to get blocks.

Elsewhere tonight, Amber Harris had 28 points and a career-high 18 rebounds in Xavier's win over Louisville.

USC defeated #18 Georgia, 71-63.

Check out the Lady Bears postgame press conference. Brittney Griner and Kim Mulkey (and Melissa Jones) are a most entertaining team. As regards Thanksgiving dinner at Coach Kim's house, she's notorious for being unable to cook.
