Lasha and Purdue come up short against St. Johns. Lasha put in a valiant effort but it wasn't enough. Guess she'll be able to play professionally overseas. WNBA may be too stacked for her to have a real chance.
Tartamello likely has averted going into "hot seat" status there at St Johns. IMO, they were really trending downward last year after a few mediocre years. With the win over UConn and now fighting their way into the tourney, he was able to right the ship after losing L. Correa, his best player last year to transfer. Looks like Jayla Everett from Pitt is taking up the slack.
