This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Maryland Pounds Pitt, 87-63, Behind Three Transfers by dillon77

Now, I know that's Pitt, but they were 5-2 at this moment.

- Princeton transfer Abby Meyers scored 23 and shot 8-16 from the field, while playing 29 minutes.

- Lavender Briggs, who was Florida's leading scorer last year, went to UM and played 30 minutes, scoring 10 points and grabbing 8 rebounds.

- Brinae Alexander, who came over from Vandy, went for 17 and 5 for 8 from three-pt. land, so ND will have to pay attention to both she and Abby Meyers, who can stroke it, as well.

- Diamond Miller, the 6'3" guard/wing who averages 19 ppg, only scored 8 pts in only 17 minutes. Can't tell if she was injured, but will keep track of that.

- Steady eddy Faith Masonius is listed as a 6'0" guard but she plays forward on this team, averaging 9 ppg and just under 6 rpg. She was Dara Mabrey's HS teammate at Manasquan when they lost, then won, the NJ state championship. The leading player on the opponent's Franklin HS team who they played both times? One Diamond Miller. Lotta Jersey girls will be on the court Thursday.
