Milaysia is not talked about enough in this game. If you just truly observe, she impacted this game HEAVY. She scored and assisted on some many crucial buckets. Tessa played great as well, but man, Fulwiley different! This was such an enjoyable game to watch!
She came and changed the pace of the game! Sometimes raven upset me because she constantly slowed the game down! Fulwiley came and sped things up kept Iowa on the move and tired them out!
@@musablue agree. The more I watch clark the more I do think she may struggle to score in the wnba initially. Her main flaw is she struggles against longer defenders, has no mid range (important if players are playing up on you) and also cant shoot at all going to her right. I do think she will be an elite passer though. Even in this game she threw many great passes. Her court vision is her best attribute imho.
@@coachonpointwhy is so hard for y’all to unsee the difference between defense and offense? Ravens task was not to shot it was to play defense on CC- mission accomplished!
@@MsLane613 of those points came from a push off that was undeniably an offensive foul. Another 2/3 FTs came from Chloe stuffing her shot & her proceeding 2 flop. That's 5 pts gifted 2ward an NCAAW championship record. It's an absolute microcosm of the hype & empty stats. They make the game easier 4 her than 4 any star I've ever seen.
@@PeacefulRicePaddy-il2ucshe was probly gassed from chasing Clark around, I’m sure she didn’t mind not scoring much as long as she was playing great defense 💪🏾
Throughout this tournament I’ve heard players, coaches and commentators say “you can’t guard Caitlin Clark so…” as part of a team’s defensive strategy. Raven Johnson literally proved all y’all wrong. She NEVER lifted her foot off Clark’s neck and it was debilitating. Good for you Raven Johnson!!!!
That is the problem with the big 10 conference no one was guarding her, how raven and Nika did. Which is why she was able to break all those records, had Iowa been put in another conference she would not have broken those records.
Caitlin folded in the last five minutes. SC's defense wore her down and took away her confidence with their relentlessness and fearlessness, they harassed her to the point she lost her energy and became frustrated. They were not in awe of her despite all the hype. Dawn Staly's coaching was excellent. She slowed the game down, changed the pace, which took Iowa out of their offensive rhythm, and she put in her bench players, making her bench the starters and her starters the bench (with a strong emphasis on defense) and it worked. They were clamping close the passing lanes, especially in the 3rd and 4th quarters where they separated themselves from Iowa on the scoreboard. Masterful coaching. So media, start talking about the undefeated winners, ok? That's the real story, thank you.
Everything you said was perfect. However it was specifically raven Johnson's defense on her that did it. 23 first quarter. As soon as raven got on her 7 points in the last three quarters. 4 steals. 2 blocks. And she didn’t score a single point the last 7 minutes. She folded. Took her hope, confidence, and momentum away.
You Crazy!!! She played 40 minutes!!! A Shooter need Her Legs! Iowa played 2 different South Carolina teams in One Game!!! That's like a Boxers going 10 rounds with Ten different Boxers!!!
I was at this game as an Iowa fan, and I tried to talk enough good-natured trash to make Iowa win, but we didn’t. SC was the better team because they were so much better than everyone this year. Great game, and the SC fans were awesome. They really wanted this game to happen, and they got their revenge for last year. Congrats Hawkeyes on doing what nobody expected you could, and congrats to South Carolina for cementing a crazy legacy of perfection!
@@fujidenzo_kid4147 nah, that backwards way of thinking is the problem with y'all bandwagon fans. Why do I have to play twice as hard because I have the ability to do it 🙃? Then, if someone is injured or the team has an anomaly of a game defensively and Iowa wins by 2 or 3 because of a million unfair calls, you don't get to say, well SC should've played defense like they normally do or injuries are part of the game. You don't excuse bad officiating-simple. It means that the margin could've been bigger🥴🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@nitajatindal1391 Fulwiley is Special on another level. To see her hit threes while she is moving sideways is amazing. Most players hit three from standstill jumper. Fulwiley can do a lot of things good men's basketball players can't.
This is what happens when you throw all of your punches too early, and your opponent is not only still standing but still fresh and then goes on the counter-attack and gets the KO. Clark goes from double digit scoring in the 1st quarter to getting practically shut out the rest of the game. Defense still wins championships folks.
Honestly and if we're being honest SC was way too good for anyone. All these comments about lockdown d and shut down..she literally got her team here thru sheer will. Kudos to South Carolina but the hate this one player gets is ridiculous. Shut down or not CC was fire. And all this hype for women's sports is going to be gone after this year.
@@lilikaramirez1848Agreed. Iowa without Caitlin Clark doesn't even make the tournament. South Carolina without their all american Cardozo would still make the Final Four. The greatness of Caitlin Clark should be celebrated
@lilikaramirez1848 - CC is a needle mover. No doubt about it. But, she's also the perfect reminder that basketball is a team sport. Having haters is a normal aspect of being successful and being put on the throne. Kings and queens require iron wills. Because they know someone out there wants their crown.
Uconn & SC had her number as far as defense of her circus shot. The refs in the WNBA will not care who she is & they will call her push offs. The WNBA has already taken note of & probably improved their defensive plan. I wonder if the NIL's can back out?
@elainetankersley712 - She's known for mouthing off to the refs. If what you say is true, she'll get T'ed up quick. Plus, that's the least of her worries. Now that the country sees her as a demi-goddess, she better perform. The people will turn on you quick if you don't deliver. What the people give, can easily be taken away.
When there is nothing to watch on TH-cam and mostly there is not for me, i go back to this game and i get my fill of greatness. I watch this game so many times its addictive. Dawn and the gamecocks, you did good. Love it.
Hilarious! "1:07" to play on the game clock but they continuing to put Caitlin Clark accomplishments on the screen! They started throwing in Clark's family with every Iowa's score! The two commentators are so dizzy dropping Clark's stats from games long gone and dusted you can't know who's the other players on Iowa's bench! They're not mentioning anything relevant about any other members of Iowa's team! A one man performance don't win Championships! Pass Accolades doesn't guarantee tides turning to favor Iowa either! You can see Dawn Staley shaking her head at some of the questionable calls against her players! She knows exactly what's happening before her eyes! Her team' s playing Iowa and the ref's..In the end too much athleticism, quickness, accuracy and size on the boards and interior defense for Iowa to compete with! Clark got the clamps put on her and she became ineffective after the half! Great coaching and very effective rotation of players by South Carolina at the right moments of the game!
Agreed. I rewatched it, and after the first quarter clark was literally the worst player on the court. She got blocked repeatedly, had 5 turnovers turnovers, didn't block out, played zero d, was the last person down the court almost everytime, had passes that were missed but called "oh what a dish!!" And shot 27% ....but yeah sure, goat 😂😂and talked about the whole game with almost zero quality production currently happening.
I want every one of these filthy refs to be investigated. The nonsensical calls that were made against South Carolina were outrageous. The lack of response from anyone in Iowa regarding this matter indicates the nature of this group. It raises questions about their integrity and impartiality in officiating the game.
How long you been living in America? The system usually cheats in interracial competition - be it job hiring, the justice/court system, sports, or any other segment of American society. That's why it's always been said you have to be TWICE as good as your white counterpart. When you play an opponent like Iowa, you have to beat them decidedly so that you remove the refs as a factor. If you allow the game to remain close, you will get treated like W Virginia and UCONN - that's why you can't let it go down to the wire - you will be cheated.
I'm sorry she can play but she didn't invent basketball. She got away with so many push offs and they weren't calling anything on Iowa and everyone with eyes could see that so don't say you didn't. Congrats coach Staley and the Gamecocks!!!
Aaaaabsolutely correct!!!! My Lady Gamecocks were able to play above the refs and get the undefeated championship this year. Can't wait for next season.
Living in Florida but I was born and raised in SC. I rep SC proudly in FL. Congrats to the Gamecocks on an amazing and memorable season. National Champions. Revenge Tour completed.
Watching this over again is so satisfying! DEFENSE WINS GAMES! I can’t wait until defense players get the credit they deserve! Shooting and making pts is a big part of any game. But defense is the backbone of any team!👏🏽👏🏽 CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN SOUTH CAROLINA & DAWN STALEY💪🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@selfmaderish4690? The fact Clark never reviewed the game calls or even attempted to say anything about them because they benefited her quest to a championship made her look worse when it comes to basketball the way she waved off Raven and allows the media to degrade her and said nothing shows her character so yeah she might have influenced who?
Coach Staley was beside herself!! You can see at the 31:00-31:15 mark they called a quick foul on Raven Johnson and gave Coach Staley a warning 👀. THEN again at 32:50-33:00 they called a foul on Tessa Johnson who barely touch Clark if that. You could tell Coach Staley in the moment flashed back to last year when they called those 2 cheap early fouls on a Boston to control the game. So glad they won, they missed all fouls Clark was doing .
@@hild-demongoddess7498 Iowa last year in the final 4. They called 2 quick fouls on her in the 1st QTR. if you go watch that game you will see what I’m talking about
All we heard was “Caitlin” and once again she was denied. you don’t win a championship with one player. You win it with a team. Congratulations SC! You killed it!!!!!
Exactly! And everytime Caitlin got the ball she wanted to either git 3 points and run up and dunk, like she was the ONLY player out there. That is selfish but, that is why she got worn out and worn down!
@@armyqt yep and all she did in the WNBA was have one of the best rookie seasons ever and lead her team to the playoffs for the first time in like 10 years! What a bum
Raven, Milaysia, Te-Hina, Bree, Chloe, Tessa all coming back. Joyce Edwards coming in. Adhel Tac coming back from injury. All we need is another big from the portal and we can go ndefeated again.
Raven locked Caitlyn Clark down from quarter 2-4! Iowa definitely fought til the last 4 mins. SC bench is so deep they pieced them together perfectly ❤ SC 🐔
The Lady Gamecocks are losing the 6’ 7” center…but the 6’ 6” 18 year old freshman should be healthy sometime next season. I just wish she would have been healthy enough to practice against Karmilla this past season.
The Gamecocks got Joyce Edwards. She was ranked 2nd in the country but was the Gatorade National Player Of The Year. She also won the Morgan Wooten Award. & She'll start. South Carolina reloads. Lost all 5 starters last year and came back better this year
Raven took that "Revenge Tour" to heart and shut Catlin down completely in the 2nd half. Be careful who you wave off dismissively. Congrats South Carolina!!!!
@@bullydakidd2023 Paige Bueckers lost them the game, not the refs. She made 3 critical mistakes: 1) Missed the open 3 with 1 minute left. 2) Did not move well to receive the ball so Edwards had to close the gap step and made the illegal screen. 3) Choose to box out Caitlin Clark after her shooting the free trow instead of fighting with Stuelke and Affolter for the rebound with 3.9 seconds left. And she turned her back on Clark, so she threw the ball on her to waste clock.
This just proves even more that basketball 🏀 is a team sport not an individual sport. A great basketball 🏀 team will always beat 1 great basketball 🏀 player.
The ONLY REASON South Carolina is a powerhouse is because they play as a TEAM and doesn't place ALL their eggs in "one" overrated pressure prone basket.
I had to watch this game again even though I saw what happen the first time how the refs cheated y'all tried to make sure Clark won but the best team won
South Carolina won every game!!!!! I am a huge UConn fan and ima stand beside them through any loss they get but I tell you what S.C did their BIG ONE this season 💪🏽👏🏽 they came and stood on business 😭
Actually there’s no difference between the starters and benches in South Carolina Gamecocks. Rather in some games bench players played better than the starters. I guess that is how Dawn Staley really did her better job and that is how she made her team undefeated. Congratulations Gamecocks. Very sad for the last game of Caitlin Clark and Hawkeyes senior players. It was tremendous season for them to achieve this of back to back championships games.
Nobody noticed that Tessa Johnson wasn't a bench player--she was throughout the season a fourth quarter starter. She played as many 4th quarter minutes as any Gamecock. She experienced the strategies, defenses, emotions and the competitiveness of winning time. No Gamecock was more ready for the moment. Dawn's coaching was far ahead of the competition. Her freshman was experienced and confident in those last ten minutes. A remarkable performance by coach and player! Tessa was trained for end games. It showed!
@waldolydecker8118 you heard it right the first time. USC is the University of South Carolina and it was well established before that other one. Look it up.
@@youllfloat2pennywise344 - my bad..though you were a Southen Cal fan...they've call themselves "real' too. Don't need to look it up...the east coast was settled decades before California, so most venerable institutions on the east coast would have been established before any west of the Mississippi.
As a LSU fan I was hoping SC would’ve put 100 like we did on them last year but they got the victory and for 3rd year in a row kept the national championship in the conference
They would have had Raven Johnson not shot 1-11. Raven took too many shots. She played tremenduous defense but she took too many threes. Her shot just wasn't there.
The defense by South Carolina on Iowa's last possession of the first half , is a prime example of offense wins games , defense wins championships . Iowa didn't get a shot off .
Revenge tour complete. When you run up against a team that rolls about 9 deep and its just you and your tallest player is 6'2 or 6'3 having to deal with 6'7 yeah you're not winning. #RunItBack
Is it weird that Kamila gave them 15pts 17rebs 3blks yet they didn’t even let her talk post game.. even when they announced her as the Most Outstanding Player? Then go on to talk about Clark
Milaysia is not talked about enough in this game. If you just truly observe, she impacted this game HEAVY. She scored and assisted on some many crucial buckets. Tessa played great as well, but man, Fulwiley different! This was such an enjoyable game to watch!
Yes Iowa team was scared of her. She got fouled 4 times but 3 blind mice didn’t see it
Kamilla Cardoso and Raven Johnson is the reason they won
She came and changed the pace of the game! Sometimes raven upset me because she constantly slowed the game down! Fulwiley came and sped things up kept Iowa on the move and tired them out!
@@constancebeckham8437exactly. Her athleticism. And her energy.

@@salvadorperez2450she’s definitely going to something special

@@seancrawford1422UConn should be in this game idk if it’s a stretch tho
Coach Staley was beside herself!! You can see at the 31:00-31:15 mark they called a quick foul on Raven Johnson and gave Coach Staley a warning 👀. THEN again at 32:50-33:00 they called a foul on Tessa Johnson who barely touch Clark if that. You could tell Coach Staley in the moment flashed back to last year when they called those 2 cheap early fouls on a Boston to control the game. So glad they won, they missed all fouls Clark was doing .
Who was Boston playing against?
@@hild-demongoddess7498 Iowa last year in the final 4. They called 2 quick fouls on her in the 1st QTR. if you go watch that game you will see what I’m talking about
Happy birthday 🎂
Piece out
I hope next time they can find announcers that doesn’t show their bias towards a particular team when they go up 20 plus
All we heard was “Caitlin” and once again she was denied. you don’t win a championship with one player. You win it with a team. Congratulations SC! You killed it!!!!!
Exactly! And everytime Caitlin got the ball she wanted to either git 3 points and run up and dunk, like she was the ONLY player out there. That is selfish but, that is why she got worn out and worn down!
Yep and the same attitud e followed her to the W.
@@armyqt yep and all she did in the WNBA was have one of the best rookie seasons ever and lead her team to the playoffs for the first time in like 10 years! What a bum
Raven, Milaysia, Te-Hina, Bree, Chloe, Tessa all coming back. Joyce Edwards coming in. Adhel Tac coming back from injury. All we need is another big from the portal and we can go ndefeated again.
Watkins is another big they have coming back. She got 20 rebounds in that NC State final four game. They are going to be stacked.
@@tuckertech I completely forgot about Ash. Just need for her to improve her offensive game and it's completely over for everyone.
te-hina is a senior
yes she is
Ashlyn and Saniya coming back. Sakima might be coming back. She hasn’t decided.
I'm so happy it's finally a full replay of this...I only got a little of the end of the game because I had a late basketball practice!
LETS GO SOUTH CAROLINAAA!
Raven locked Caitlyn Clark down from quarter 2-4! Iowa definitely fought til the last 4 mins. SC bench is so deep they pieced them together perfectly ❤ SC 🐔
The Lady Gamecocks are losing the 6’ 7” center…but the 6’ 6” 18 year old freshman should be healthy sometime next season. I just wish she would have been healthy enough to practice against Karmilla this past season.
I definitely see Dawn grabbing another big out of the portal
N we got Joyce seawards number 2 in the country
@@ParisMilan89she’s gonnnna be a problemmmmmmmmm!!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
The Gamecocks got Joyce Edwards. She was ranked 2nd in the country but was the Gatorade National Player Of The Year. She also won the Morgan Wooten Award. & She'll start. South Carolina reloads. Lost all 5 starters last year and came back better this year
@@mongoslade277Joyce won't start right away but she will get ample playing time next season.
Raven Johnson 🔥
That Raven revenge was no joke! Congrats, SC!
These freshman came and made a statement all by themselves. The legacy will continue GO GAMECOCKS❤
Humble team South Carolina received the blessing🎉🎉🎉🎉
Raven took that "Revenge Tour" to heart and shut Catlin down completely in the 2nd half. Be careful who you wave off dismissively. Congrats South Carolina!!!!
No she didn't. Caitlin scored on her.
@@anthonypuccetti8779Raven was on the assignment and locked in! Way to get back to the top, ladies! Well done!
Now cc then
face of basketball.. 😂😂
Thank you SC for putting Iowa to rest.😂😂😂
FINALLY!
4:57 Tahina was GETTIN' it in!!!
Cute as a button!
AMAZING how the ref's tried to give this one to Iowa.
I know she’s so cute 🥰 Her and Johnson are cute as buttons ❤
Johnson,Tessa and Milaysia you were extraordinary throughout this year's tournament. well done ❤❤❤
As well as PaoPao and everyone really. Don't forget
@@neetrab you are absolutely right, I even forgot my shooter B. Hall
Imagine losing back to back by double digits in the championship game yikes
Be grateful it was not Uconn, they would lose by 30
It was the team tho
@@camilasilvaalves6319nah. UCONN wouldn't have had the ref against them as they did against Iowa
@@bullydakidd2023 Paige Bueckers lost them the game, not the refs. She made 3 critical mistakes:
1) Missed the open 3 with 1 minute left.
2) Did not move well to receive the ball so Edwards had to close the gap step and made the illegal screen.
3) Choose to box out Caitlin Clark after her shooting the free trow instead of fighting with Stuelke and Affolter for the rebound with 3.9 seconds left. And she turned her back on Clark, so she threw the ball on her to waste clock.
They got cooked by the bench both times too.
It was a good game great job to the players, coaches and staff
whoever said, "you can't win them all" never met Dawn
This just proves even more that basketball 🏀 is a team sport not an individual sport. A great basketball 🏀 team will always beat 1 great basketball 🏀 player.
The male ref clearly was an Iowa fan lol
The ONLY REASON South Carolina is a powerhouse is because they play as a TEAM and doesn't place ALL their eggs in "one" overrated pressure prone basket.
that’s not the only reason but yes that is a reason.
Congratulations ladies 🏆 SC
Raven Johnson disrupted Caitlin's game and Iowa's offense.
MILAYSIA AIN SCARED OF NOTHING!!! She brought the heat and her team rose with her to the occasion! THATS a bad bad young baller!
I had to watch this game again even though I saw what happen the first time how the refs cheated y'all tried to make sure Clark won but the best team won
the refs helped them beat ucon it's called Karma
Now after getting shut down the whole game if Raven would have did that hand wave to her off the court she would have deserved it.
Raven did her hand waving from the 2nd - 4th
Congratulations South Carolina you guys are perfect ❤❤❤❤❤
South Carolina won every game!!!!! I am a huge UConn fan and ima stand beside them through any loss they get but I tell you what S.C did their BIG ONE this season 💪🏽👏🏽 they came and stood on business 😭
5:17 in the 1Q Raven Johnson begins ro gaurd Clark & USC begins to head towards victory!
LIVE YOU RAVEN!!!
I’ve watched this game at least 5 times and the ending never gets old. 😅
Actually there’s no difference between the starters and benches in South Carolina Gamecocks. Rather in some games bench players played better than the starters.
I guess that is how Dawn Staley really did her better job and that is how she made her team undefeated.
Congratulations Gamecocks.
Very sad for the last game of Caitlin Clark and Hawkeyes senior players. It was tremendous season for them to achieve this of back to back championships games.
Finally an honest take
Nobody noticed that Tessa Johnson wasn't a bench player--she was throughout the season a fourth quarter starter. She played as many 4th quarter minutes as any Gamecock. She experienced the strategies, defenses, emotions and the competitiveness of winning time. No Gamecock was more ready for the moment. Dawn's coaching was far ahead of the competition. Her freshman was experienced and confident in those last ten minutes. A remarkable performance by coach and player! Tessa was trained for end games. It showed!
Tessa Johnson ❤❤❤❤❤
Tessa Was Major🏆🎉🎈✨
@@simonestewart4899YES , SHE WAS FEARLESS AND PLAYED GOOD DEFENSE. WHAT A DUO THEY ARE TESSA AND FULWILY.
I didn’t realize how many calls they made against SC and they still came back and won. I’m so impressed
CC stay asking for a whistle 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly 💯💯 She's nothing but a big crybaby 🍼
They asked the entire game 😂all the players 😂
Even Papa Clark told her stop complaining a few games ago
@@seancrawford1422cc now the face of basketball.. 😂😂😂😂😂
The most important player was Raven Johnson. She turned the game around.
South carolina will still be a very dangerous team because the only player leaving is Kamila Cardoso, but still they 6ft 5 Adhel Tac, she is a beast.
Every time I watch this game, I feel uplifted! I love to see Black women excel!
Amen! 🙌🏽
Iowa look like they did last year with LSU; little girls in a big girl game. They got out-matched.
37 - 0 in bench points is insane
I like that Dawn gave all GLORY to GOD in JESUS!!
TJ (aka) Tessa Johnson is a real baller! Excited 😊 to watch her career develop
SHE IS FEARLESS. SHE IS GOING TO BE A LEADER.
The real USC has 3 new freshman coming in next year that will make this already complete team absolutely lethal! 😮
"The real USC" lol You mean the USC that has been asleep for the last 30 years? That USC? More like Rip Van WInkle.
@waldolydecker8118 you heard it right the first time. USC is the University of South Carolina and it was well established before that other one. Look it up.
@@waldolydecker8118asleep 30 years ? They have 3 chips in 7 years
@@waldolydecker81183 championships in 7 years for the real USC
@@youllfloat2pennywise344 - my bad..though you were a Southen Cal fan...they've call themselves "real' too. Don't need to look it up...the east coast was settled decades before California, so most venerable institutions on the east coast would have been established before any west of the Mississippi.
As a LSU fan I was hoping SC would’ve put 100 like we did on them last year but they got the victory and for 3rd year in a row kept the national championship in the conference
They would have had Raven Johnson not shot 1-11. Raven took too many shots. She played tremenduous defense but she took too many threes. Her shot just wasn't there.
Happy everytime I watch. Perfection as you heard it! There is too much hype for one player without a championship.
I did not enjoy watching basketball until I watched this game and these two teams. True story. Awesome game, awesome teams and awesome coaches!
Re watching. Caitlin looks very human by a sophmoret.defender. She literally gave up..
FAREWELL CAITLIN CLARK
FAREWELL CAITLIN CLARK
Yep, bye bye!
Yes!! Bye bye Jim Carey ✌️ Sick of hearing about her
@@vmlksm9Exactly 💯💯💯😂🤣🤣
This thread 😂
The defense by South Carolina on Iowa's last possession of the first half , is a prime example of offense wins games , defense wins championships . Iowa didn't get a shot off .
who won this game because if you listen to the announcers, you'd thought catlin did my God give The Gamecocks their flowers please, it's sickening
Refs gave it all they had great job 😂😂
😂😂
March Madness, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!
This one's for South CAROLINA!!!!!....Come on and raise UPPPP!!!!!🎉🎉🏀🥇🥇🥇🎆🎈🎊
Congratulations South Carolina! Great teamwork! Such a joy to watch!
I watch this so many times and I just love there sportsmanship, the coach just everything about this program Uncommon favor....
Revenge tour complete. When you run up against a team that rolls about 9 deep and its just you and your tallest player is 6'2 or 6'3 having to deal with 6'7 yeah you're not winning. #RunItBack
If they run it back they not winning
Those women play better than the NBA. Great game ladies those freshmen were jamming. Congradulations SC you did it . ❤
Of course they do they work harder:
No they don't, but they great
Lol, stop.
haha, tbh, even freshmen highschooler would beat them.
@@maskassmario321
😀💯
Kamila is 🐐🐐🐐🐐
The Refs tried everything to keep Iowa in it once SC started making a comeback.
Congratulations South Carolina glad yall won !!!
Is it weird that Kamila gave them 15pts 17rebs 3blks yet they didn’t even let her talk post game.. even when they announced her as the Most Outstanding Player? Then go on to talk about Clark
And STILL they tried stealing this game for Whitowa....not TADAY BABY!!! NOT TADAY😂😅😢
