ISU lists her as 6'5" and Scott as 6'3". Based on pics from social media, she is an inch or two taller than Scott. I'm not sure Scott is quite that tall (even taking into account the extra height players usually get on rosters) so I bet 6'3" or 6'4" is more accurate for Jarosinski.
I think the question is because Wake listed her as 6'3". https://godeacs.com/sports/womens-basketball/roster/lindsey-jarosinski/3611
WVU is really slumping right now. I think they have injuries and maybe a player quit?
They almost blew the lead they had on us. In that game I believe we missed quite a few FT's which if made would of given us a chance to do what KSU did.
Iowa wbb got STOMPED at Maryland last night, 93-59. With less than 4:30 left in the 3rd quarter, the Terps led 64-25. It was televised and an absolute joy to watch the last ten minutes. (I also enjoyed watching Iowa mbb losing at Indiana.) Maryland now has sole possession of 1st in the Big 10, Northwestern (!) is a half game back, and Iowa is one game back. Indiana (!) is just two games out of first place.
Maryland might be one of the outside the top 10 that could make a run in the NCAA's. Been thinking they were the favs all along for the Big 10 but Iowa and NW have surprised me some (will confess I don't know much about NW). Four losses, all to ranked teams and only one at home vs SC who are now ranked #1. Maryland, NWU and Iowa split their series, all winning at home so they are pretty tight despite the score last night.
Kinda keep track of Maryland when i get a chance because of the Brenda connection to ISU/Gophers and because still in Gophers league. Watched them play several times and their freshman guard Ashley Owusa is fun to watch. Guess there's a reason she was the #1 guard in the 2019 class. She looks like a downsized 5'-9" version of Courtney Paris. Sort of a powerpoint guard. With her playing so well I almost forgot that another top 10 guard, Iowan Zoe Young, was supposed to be on the squad but torn an ACL. With top forward they are adding next year they might be a Final Four challenger again in a couple of years.
Yikes - Northern Iowa got tripped up at Indiana State Thursday night, 65-63. That was just Indiana State's second MVC win and fourth overall. Their RPI improved to 276. Surprisingly, the loss only dropped UNI down around 10 spots to 59. Their next game is at RPI 324 Evansville.
The Pac 12 saw a couple more ranked teams fall last night (not surprising since half the league is in the top 25). #3 Oregon won at #7 UCLA and #11 Oregon State lost at 13-11 USC.

Surprised that Minn extended Whalen's contract a year - I would think she would have to at least make the NCAA's first. I've watched them 4 or 5 times this year, and just don't see much passion with the team.
Pretty sure it's more of a case of "what we want build" vs "What have you done for me lately" She's really popular in Minn I believe and a giving her time to accomplish things also extending her might help with recruiting?
I'd love for the ladies to battle into 2nd (and I believe it's possible) otherwise hope for 4th and get on the opposite side of the bracket of BU. If the ladies get the win at TCU today they have a distinct possibility of running the table all the way to Sr. night. (ok take away my Kool-Aid)
4th seed would mean a potential semifinal vs BU.
The fight is for the 2nd/3rd spots, which keeps you away from BU until the championship game.
