Can anyone comment on this:

Quote from Virginia Athletic Website:

"In the first half, the teams played a close game with neither leading by more than four points. With 4:47 left on the clock, senior captain Siedah Williams (Cleveland, Ohio) left the game with a leg injury after she was pushed out of bounds following a lay-up attempt. She did not return to action. South Dakota State closed out the stanza with a 13-5 run to take a four-point lead into the locker room, 26-32."

Whats that all about with the "pushed out of bounds?" Thoughts?????? Just curious what really happened

I believe that's a way for an ACC team to justify loosing to a "lesser" opponent. Obviously SDSU had to play dirty to knock a player out of the game, it's the only way we could have won. I have no clue what really happened, just rationalizing someone else's writing.

I don't know about being pushed out of bounds . . . she was on a breakaway with two Jackrabbits chasing her. She got the shot up, and as she did so, a Jackrabbit player stumbled and fell, pinning Williams' right foot underneath the Jackrabbit and probably doing whatever damage Williams sustained.

I honestly can't say if she was fouled on the shot or not, but there was no foul called. It's possible the two chasing Jackrabbits collided and one stumbled into her. It certainly wasn't any kind of malicious play.

We're pretty sure you heard us on the radio . . . Scotty K. said he turned up the crowd noise a couple of times on the broadcast.

Yes, was surprised to hear "Let's Go Rabbits" and "S-D-S-U" in the bahamas. Nice work!!!
