![]() While I'm not saying a c-level high school team could beat the current UConn women's hoops teams, I understand randall's point. We had a #1 ranked in the state girls high school team when I was a freshman in high school, and as a big tune-up for the playoffs, their coach asked the freshmen boys coach if we could scrimmage them for an hour or so. We beat them by 30, and it wasn't even close.

These women are very fast, great shooters, great ball handlers, great defenders and very athletic / big. Its not like the men would have that great of a size advantage at that age. The men would most likely be faster.. but I wouldnt under estimate UCONN's speed. and their skills would overcome the speed.

Now, if you want to say that they would get beaten by a pretty good boys high school basketball team, I could agree with that. Heck, we have some boys teams in our area that could beat some men's college teams. Dematha or Montrose Christian would beat some division 1 men's teams. There is little doubt in my mind that they could handle UConn women. The difference is mainly in size and not as much in skill although that would vary depending on the team. Top high school teams will have 6'6 wings and centers 6' 8" and up while women's teams are generally going to be shorter and smaller. In my mind, a "c" level high school team will have players that are about the same size or even smaller than the Uconn women and probably wouldn't be anywhere near as skilled and certainly not anywhere near as well coached or seasoned. The same would go for most division 2 or 3 schools and even some bad division 1 schools. |

![]() dalakhani.... The top women's programs practice against men that attend their school, generally former high school players that are not good enough for the men's program. Probably the coaches at UConn, Tennessee, Duke, etc. would have the best idea what level men's teams they would be competitive against. Most of us can only speculate

![]() The streak will in all likelihood end tonight at Stanford. UConn is a very thin team that depends on 7 core players with two frosh sharing the post duties, one of whom is undersized at 6'1. Stanford has five quality post players ranging from 6'2 to 6'5. UConn's senior back up guard is out with a foot injury. Maya will play 40 minutes but it means that none of the 1 2 or 3 positions will get a rest. Early foul trouble to any player will be a killer

![]() Probably not, hence another reason why most people don't give a damn.
Reguardless, it was still a good call by Slew.

![]() Thanks....I wish there were outlets to bet wcb. If you know the sport it is pretty easy money. Usually there are only spreads and money lines for the Final Four, but then it is difficult to find a place to make the bet. Pinnacle used to handle it. and they had futures on teams after the NCAA tourney draws.
