Last year, they made their first Final Four appearance in program history, and with Lauren Betts back and playing in her senior season, this is the moment for the […]
Lose a couple in a row to teams below you … then come up with a big win over a team above you. No. 22 Maryland’s losses to No. 2 UCLA and No. 10 Iowa may have started their four-game losing streak, but the next two to No. 24 Washington and unranked Oregon hurt more […]
