NoCo took the lead with 7 seconds left…

…but EWU scored with 3 seconds left after Jessica McDowell-White inbounded it off of Savannah Smith's ass, got the ricochet, and layed it in & got fouled. :lol: :lol: :lol:

So… instead of Savannah Smith being the hero, she's the goat. :?

Rumor is that the winner is going to either Eugene or Corvallis first round.

That would make sense, especially since the Oregons should be in the 2-4 seed range.

Ducks rumored to be 2 seed, maybe a 3. Beavs heard they are a 3. PSU wins, they could possibly go either place. If EWU wins, they probably are going to Eugene as a 15.

Portland media and sportswriters are never wrong, you know. They know everything about the Pac-12. :lol:

Hansen hits mid-ranger with 3 seconds left. EWU calls a TO to move it to the frontcourt…

PSU maybe got away with a foul with 1 second left, though one could argue a jump ball should've been called too.

Eastern has it with 0.7 left…

Morrow misses the baseline jumper. Portland State will head to the NCAAs for the second time ever (in DI, anyway).

They do, but they both lose a bit too. PSU loses West, Bolston, and Rielly (are they getting Kiana Brown back, JALMOND?), while Eastern loses Morrow & Sealby.

Portland State gets the #15 seed and will play Oregon in Eugene on Friday.

Interesting, the Lady Viks are two wins away from hosting the regional, scheduled to play at the Moda Center in Portland next weekend. :thumb:

This just proves that it's not about how good your conference is, but about how good the top of your conference is. The Big Sky ranked 3 spots higher in the RPI this year than last, but its NCAA team is seeded 5 spots lower.
