Women of Troy Denied NCAA Tournament Bid

doesn’t make sense at all – there is practically no cost there and gives the team much needed practice time.

“Our women’s basketball players and coaches, and consequently many others at USC, suffered horrible heartbreak when we were left out of the NCAA Tournament on selection day on Monday. The feeling is even worse because there’s no transparency with the whole system. The selection committee makes their educated decisions, but for USC, the 65th-best team and first one out of the tournament, there’s no rationale for why we weren’t included. We’re just left wondering. We had a good strength of schedule, having played 10 tournament-bound teams and beating four of them. We were third in the Pac-10 and had 19 wins. We finished hot, having won six straight at the end of the season before losing in the Pac-10 tournament semifinals to a ranked UCLA squad. Our RPI is in the Top 40 and we had a number of what the NCAA calls “good losses” — to Xavier in overtime and Duke on the road, both highly seeded tournament teams. People complain about the BCS all the time, but at least it’s transparent all season, and you can criticize it and scrutinize it all you want because of that. This snub is just going to make our basketball program — both the men’s and women’s teams — hungrier for this upcoming season."

Good one!!!
